maqroll Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 When I did my shopping on Tuesday I think I reflexively grabbed something that I associate with happy times, a whole turkey! So tonight I'm eating turkey with roasted veggies and gravy. Knocking back some Portuguese red blend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Turkish immigration here is the equivalent of Indian immigration in the UK, as a result kebab Houses are everywhere, imagine chip shops + Indian take aways then x 2 that's how many of them there are But they're crazy expensive, 6 or 7€ for a kebab, another 3€ for a small tray of french fries, tonight I had a "special" which amounted to kebab meat chips and tatziki for 12€ Quality is all over the shop, there's no shit doner meat (I'm a chicken kebab guy in the uk anyway) but a lot of it is fairly bland, tends to be the better ones are better because of the quality of the salad and sauces too rather than the meat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easily the 2nd most popular takeaway after pizza, mostly run by people from Asia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My snacks are rapidly decreasing I've been smashing the crisps pretty heavy. I love crisps but obviously never get full of them. I only stop when my lips start stinging. I've started putting crisps back on my ham and cheese butties. Salt and vinegar. The flavour works but the crunch is the best bit by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Wezbid Posted April 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2020 Last night me and the Mrs were going to have lasagne but she didn't want to wait the 50 mins as we'd left it a bit late. I said I'd stick some sausages in the oven for sausage butties. 35 mins later we somehow ended up here 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) @Wezbid - i really hope that's reduced sugar tomato ketchup/brown sauce you've used ? Edited April 2, 2020 by mottaloo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Fryup police would not approve... Ignoring the red sauce massacre, looks like cheap quantity over quality sausages and bacon, no black pudding (I can accept no mushrooms or Tom's) assuming toast is out of shot, bean juice looks nicely burned off, eggs look good but touching the beans rather than safe behind the sausage wall Its a fry up so of course wb but 5/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bacon is cheap streaky though, I'll give you that one, it's really fatty and salty though so I have no shame there. I was making this on our Corona rations so we were down our normal mushrooms. I'm down for black pud but she's not a fan so I go without as to avoid waste. The toast is underneath the eggs. I planted them suckers on top otherwise there was no room and I'm not busting out extra plates to house the toast in these crazy times when washing up liquid is being hoarded by strange ones. We mixed in grated cheese into the beans for extra panache. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably why my daily workout is stretching for the remote! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
