Middle class people think it's trendy and it stops people moaning because the beans are in the wrong place. It's putting chips in a mini frying basket that I hate, mark of a standard restaurant trying to be seen as better by people who value form over function. Edited December 18, 2022 by Tommy!

A ramekin holds around 200g (give or take) of baked beans. Roughly half a tin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted December 18, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 18, 2022 I am more than happy for them to be in a ramekin, then I don’t have to eat the fuckers or wipe the juice off the good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crying with laughter at the term "bedwetter's breakfast". I'm voting for this to be the next thing the UKFF runs into the ground with overuse.

Paid Members Chilly McFreeze Posted December 19, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 19, 2022 Feast your eyes lads. I went to The Street cafe in Norwich, widely regarded as the best fry-up in town. For some reason I've never been so it was time to try it out and it didn't disappoint. Lots of different options but I went for the biggest called 'The Old English.' This was really fantastic stuff: 2 Bacon, 2 Sausages, 2 Eggs, 2 Mushrooms, Bubble & Squeek, White AND Black Pudding, Grilled Tomatoes, Fried Bread and Beans. Comes with 2 slices of toast or bread. Tea not included. Just really fucking good. And some nice variety. Bubble & Squeek instead of Hash Browns worked really well, and a rare White Pudding sighting. All the ingredients were top notch and cooked perfectly. Bread instead of toast is a nice option, I tend to prefer bread for mopping up at the end. Hard to fault it really. Shame tea wasn't included, although a big mug instead of a crap pot and tiny cup was appreciated. All that for £15 which for Norwich is decent. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Best fry-up ever? Maybe. Best in Norwich? By a long fucking way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted December 20, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 20, 2022 Feel like I've been cucked (not by Menry) looking at that masterpiece next to my paltry effort on the last page. Looks tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongStyle Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 One thing that Scotland irrefutably does better than England is the sausage. I would never turn my nose up at a 'link' sausage, but square is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members GlennCullen Posted December 22, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 22, 2022 Middle class deli effort, so wasn’t expecting the world. But you know what? Pretty damn decent: Usually I’d want more on the plate, but considering I had a Christmas food shop to do, it was just the right amount. Will return.
