3 of the places my kids love to eat at are pubs. Never a problem as long as they are out by 7pm. Also because they are gastropubs, they have a dining area where it’s no problem to seat kids. I’m guessing that kids running around is an American thing- you rarely see it here. And if you do, a quiet word with the parent…

It isn’t proper etiquette- that would be to have your napkin in your lap at all times unless you have finished dining, whence you place the napkin beside your plate. Or if you have to leave the table mid-dining, whence the napkin is placed on the seat until you return (some restaurants may take the napkin, refold it…

“It’s called Toys R Bust...”

It doesn’t help that the owners aren’t known for their pro-women stance (one of their previous beers was called “Trashy Blonde”)

The weird thing is- I’ve never come across this. Every restaurant I’ve eaten in has reset the flatware between courses.

What I want to know is: Is his food worth $30?

Or get your own sourdough starter going... Alternatively, make soda bread.

Here’s hoping one of them is about Jasmin and Aladdin discovering anal sex for the first time, entitled “A Whole New Hole”...

That’s the way I was taught (in Spain)

Rather Than tying the breast with twine, wrap it in bacon or palma ham. The trick if you use bacon (what we would call a rasher), is to use streaky bacon (which most american bacon appears to be by default) and flatten it- put the bacon between two pieces of cling film and use a rolling pin- roll it length-ways until…

I can get a tray of 36 eggs, slightly smaller than medium size for €2.99. They are “rejects” from a lady who keeps chickens commercially (free range not factory caged) who lives local to me.

London is a tough place for food- everywhere is usually overpriced; “foodies” are usually chasing whatever the latest fad food craze is; and anywhere that is tourist friendly has absolutely terrible food. You need to go off the beaten tracks and get out to the fringes. Even Chinatown/Gerrard Street, usually great for…

Tried them last month (they’re here in Dublin). Came away thinking that our local “homemade” burger places do a higher quality burger for a lot better price (Bunsen; Boxburger; and Wowburger if you are ever in Dublin and looking for recommendations for good burgers).

It’s more for when you are confronted with a plate of uneaten fries the next morning and you get a sudden craving- re-flashing fries is a lot quicker than another trip to the local fast food joint.

Thankfully, this is only in America- the rest of us are unaffected...

It was one of those films that I saw once, and have never seen it on TV since.

Strange thing is, there are only 2 KFCs in Ireland...

The problem with Loftus Hall is the ghost story attached to it (a visit by the devil) is identical to the one attributed to the Hellfire Club in Dublin.

“Depending on how you feel about ... interspecies sex”

I’ve heard of cases in the ~US where food is served in a bucket- only one step away from a trough...
