Nah, the large bag of frozen meatballs were becoming an irritation in an otherwise organised freezer. The tomato sauce was all my own, as was the pasta, just rolled and sliced by hand so slightly thick, but OK.

Way to kick a man while he's living off camp food.

That was our first visit and it was incredible.

The last two pictures were part of my meal.

The salmon was good but the chickpeas/tomatoes/sweet pepper/basil/eggplant bed it was sitting on was even better.

I ordered the “Date Cake” and we all thought it was meant for a couple. I was going to share it with whatshername.

They set the cake down in front of me and the waitress had 3 extra plates that she started to place down on the table.

I tasted the cake and told the waitress she could take the extra plates away, because I wasn’t sharing.

“Date Cake” – it was made with dates.

Might have been one of the best desserts I have ever eaten.

'Date Cake' sounds suspiciously like 'Sticky Toffee Pudding', as dates are the core ingredient of that. Also that sauce on your plate looks like caramel (i.e. toffee). Sticky toffee pudding - Wikipedia

That whole meal looks divine!

butterscotch sauce | vanilla ice cream | pecan tuile

The pecan tuile was the cookie between the ice cream and the whip cream

When I make sticky toffee puddings, I add pecan nuts to the toffee sauce. Here's a post I made nearly 5 years ago: PAG's Sticky Toffee Pudding with Pecan Toffee Sauce

I should say. This was and is out of the ordinary.

Routine is much simpler meals.

After this weeks batch cooking I've mostly been eating...



Theres a fine art to rolling a tortilla

a tortilla

^^

I guessed an attempt at a shawarma...

The trick is not to overfill the tortilla.
Eyes bigger than your belly.

Steak pie sandwich

Why the fuck would you stick a pie into a sandwich? The pastry already has carbs.
