I was quite shocked to read that report that a high percentage of lamb curries contain little or no lamb:eek:. I reckon most of us knew that already. I once bought a lamb curry that had just four tiny pieces of meat. With the whole container soaked in curry thickened with loads of onions, it is no wonder that it is so hard to tell what's in that muck.

I can't quite believe it but a Caribbean food place has just opened up literally round the cirner from me. One of my favourite types of food. Just had fried fish with rice and peas for lunch, bloody lovely. This is just unheard of round here it is all pies and currirs. Xdon't know how long it will last but I am going to make the most of it while it does :)

They had Jamaican Curried Goat Pies in Pie and Ale in Manchester a couple of weeks ago.

I went for the Rabbit, Black Pudding, Bacon, Parsnip and Apple Pie though

Ah Bakerie been there a few times. I work quite near it at City Tower on Piccadilly Plaza. Will check out Pie & Ale for main meals rather than bread and wine!

There are a lot of gourmet "beer 'n burger" joints opening these days hopefully in place of last year's pulled pork overload...

its my favorite breakfast ..a thick,warm slice of home made soda bread dripping with butter and strawberry jam....yummy! and better for you than those fry ups i used to love.....ha!

I like a bit of soda bread Grant, but i wouldn't say its my 'fave'. Takes ages to toast.

Probably not actually but certainly very yummy indeed. We are experimenting with various breads at the mo as we are both gluten intolerant. The only failure has been the rye which is a shame as the few edible bits were delicious. Carry on experimenting:)

I wonder why all the wheat free breads take so long to toast too!! Can't try the soda bread as it uses ordinary flour but there you go.
