So are you claiming your man cave is not on the balcony of your place? Sure looks like it to me.

BTW I did not red you.

Yes.

That's how to do onion rings right there. Burger looks a treat too.

Agreed, especially with the bacon and pickled jalapeños bursting out.

The equivalent of 5USD in UB, so 167 baht

Looks bloody good!

The burger looks great...but the bacon is uncooked.

That's a lovely burger, but yes the bacon could stand a minute longer in the pan.

A rather nice Roast Beef with a varied assortment of roasted vegetables served with a horseradish and gravy sauce.

Nice view and price to match...

10/10

In stark contrast, today's Lamb Mousaka..
5/10

It's all Greek to me

Strange colour for beef…

Honey roasted chicken with a carrot purée, mashed spuds and asparagus wrapped in speck ham.

Looks good. No gravy/sauce?

That was the purpose of the carrot purée. The asparagus was light covered in olive oil, sea salt flakes, cracked black pepper and parmesan cheese. The mash was standard, with cream cheese, butter, milk and S&P.

Looks nice and chewy. The way I like it.

Like a Dr. Marten’s boot in need of a polish.

It's been fish just about every night lately in the Mendip household for obvious reason, but to mix it up a bit I've also tried a couple of new ones for me.

Last night I dug out the minced lamb from the freezer and made my first shepherd's pie.



I used the exact same recipe as for my cottage pie but substituted minced lamb for minced beef, and used a lamb Oxo cube in the stock instead of a beef Oxo cube. I find that Bisto powder with flour makes the best stock for any of this kind of thing.



Lovely!



I think that all things considered I prefer cottage pie, but the lamb made a nice change.

And while on the subject of cottage pie, a few nights ago I had my first ever attempt at Mexican food.



I dug out a bagged up portion of my cottage pie from the freezer and made up a couple of what I think are called burritos?

Topped with cheese, these went into the convection oven.



The burritos later joined the chicken fajitas on the plate.



In my defense I was a bit tired that night... but while maybe not the most aesthetically pleasing of meals it was still delicious!

wtf???

^ Yup. I just shook my head, having no idea where to even start on that. The peas in it shook me to my core.....

Cottage pie contents, looks fine to me

Howard Marks himself couldn't roll those bad boys tight without spillage.

They probably tasted fine.

They probably tasted just as good when he was licking it off his shirt, knees, shoes and the floor too.

Fork and knife approach is not acceptable.
