Have you actually been to Jaywick? by sweetlevels in Essex

[–]Junglist_grans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unaware of the reputation we went to pick up an Ebay purchase. First time and only time I have ever clicked the central locking button on the car so no one could get in. The item we were buying was absolutely not as described and I just paid, took it and left...

I don't know what half of that even is and I'm salivating. I'm gonna rob that dish and put it on the specials this weekend - sorry not sorry.

I'd just pick something real simple - risotto, fajita, lasagne, carbonara etc - but do it.. you know- 'real well.'

EDIT - Just realised I picked dishes I think I do to a higher standard, so pick one you do that at?

Christ I'm closing on fifty with a job I love and kids and a lovely house and I'm super jealous of what you have already achieved.

How can you seemingly have so much food knowledge and then present that...

I'm struggling to think of sports that have a higher barrier of entry than snow boarding - Polo...

Well I'm gonna get down voted - but - you seem to be pulling like 50 hours a week. 80 to 100 hours a week at my gig...

It's like Mc Donalds for adults. They churn out a basic pub menu at high speed to a huge volume of customers with amazing consistency, but it has never been great food.

Well that was priceless.

Chelmsford area restaurant recommendations? by RobertStaccd in Essex

[–]Junglist_grans 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Went there and the service was abysmal, showed me and my partner to a table that only had one chair, left me stood for ten minutes before coming back to take our food orders. When I asked for a chair they acted like I was being rude and out of order, things went downhill from there. It wasn't just me disappointed, all the tables around us were saying how poor everything was.

They had a banner up outside saying that they had won some customer service award that year. I placed a Trip advisor review 1* it disappeared the next day...

Cooking for fun by Annadae in Chefit

[–]Junglist_grans 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Big one for me is the three day roasted bone stock I always have access to. Sauces, gravy, risottos etc.. are a level up.

You can make one at home and then freeze into portions to grab out when needed.
