It is one of those things that everyone says "yuk" until they have actually done it... Doesn't necessarily have to be a Snickers bar but any sweet chocolate will do the trick

E. G.

What type of beer?

lemon/lime juice with a little sugar syrup, add soda water, a bashed lemongrass stalk (think celery in Bloody Mary) and slices of chilli (with seeds) to taste. Yum. The ultimate hangover drink.

Great one Sabang; greenie coming at ya.

e. g.

I had it at the Savoy Grill once.

Another nice one-
Slice a sharpish apple, such as a Granny Smith.
Enjoy with aged Cheddar.

Hot apple pie with a slice of sharp cheddar cheese.

Mashed potatoes with fresh cracked pepper and sweetened rice wine vinegar. Mix in a can of tuna if you like. It's a stripped down version of a Spanish potato salad I make.

Stumbled across another last evening, quite literally actually, Strawberry Jam and Saltines. Yummy

Have just had to Google 'Saltines', that actually sounds quite tasty!

Avocado with light soy and wasabi on white toast.

AND another one 'stumbled' into:

Vanilla Ice cream and Sang Som... quite nice actually, cuts the kerosene taste out of the Sang Som.

E. G.

Good Stilton, Good Fruit Cake and Fine Port

Cold yorkshire pudding & strawberry jam

Daveboy,

Agreed, the small leftover ones from Sunday Lunch...

I love gherkins and marmalade.

Cheese go well along apple, also delicious with grape and walnuts.

Hot rapsberries lying in a "norvegian omelette" style bed with vanilla ice cream.
