Wezbid Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 To get this back on topic, I'm cooking rib-eye for me and the other half in a bit, I'm a bit tipsy already. If I don't completely screw it up, I'll take a pic and get it up on here. No guarantees though. She's medium-medium/welldone whilst I'm a medium-rare guy (whilst trying to get the fat melty and soft, what a hassle). I fear I'll screw mine up trying to get hers right. We never have steak but I made the effort to buy it for a change but my experience cooking it is hit and miss. Got a stick of garlic butter to melt on if I completely fudge it though. I can just grease my throat to let it slide down easier that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Went to Pulperia in Brindley Place on Friday night. Ran by award winning chef Akhtar Islam. Wow it was amazing. House Bread with Aged Beef Butter ---- Chorizo Chicken Empenadas (We shared starters) ----- 600g Porterhouse Galician Blonde to share. Wow best Steak I have tried, melted in the mouth, so full of flavour. Would recommend the restaurant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 He's a brilliant chef Currently doing a home order thing from opheem, £60 curry boxes that you heat at home, sounds incredible and actually decent value (10 curries in there) Not sure what his fall out was with them from the old places but fiesta del asado and lasans were excellent too, never went to nosh and quaff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I'm contemplating making a pizza dough, stack it full of cheese, put another dough over and gorge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Germans at it again... Today was taco salat Imagine a big trifle dish, lettuce at the bottom, then a layer of tomato, then sweetcorn and kidney beans, then a layer of cold chilli con carne, then a layer of remoulade (basically mayo with some herbs chucked in) then cheese on top, put in the fridge for a few hours before being served with tacos I'm a big fan of Mexican food so of course it was good but it shouldnt have been as good as it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am not at the level of you guys in cooking so I might be wrong. Edit: I was wrong. The Italian version is Fugazza. The south American one or stuffed one is called Fugazzeta. Anyway that's what I mean. Edited August 8, 2020 by KenjiOgiwara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted August 17, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Oh my.... Yesterday's left over roast beef reheated in real gravy in a bread roll with horseradish sauce. 10 times better than anything that Pret A Manger could serve you up in a herby brioche for 7 quid a pop.

villa4europe Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 wheres good for lunch in London? I've got options 1) I can try and go to say like a Gordon Ramsey bread street kitchen style place on a "bargain" 2 course for £25 2) I can try and do whats likely to be a chain like TGI Fridays which don't exist in Germany, my wife went to 5 guys a few weeks back and loved it, trying to think if there are any international chains that only have a London restaurant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
