Some good wholesome food being posted here, chaps, although Steve needs to get his camera out!;)
Barry, glad you're being more active here and taking some good pics:)
Last night's dinner... Pan-fried chicken breast in a lemon and white wine sauce with Jersey Royals, spinach and other greens:

Pain au chocolat and croissant from Lidl's fresh bakery section!:)
[Don't normally have two pastries, but thought I'd spoil myself today].
Marco.
For me it's either pain au chocolat, or an almond croissant. But hey, why not treat yourself Marco!
Is that mango juice you're drinking there? I prefer orange (with the 'bits' in it), or grapefruit juice for breakfast.
Looks lovely Marco. :)
Ours was a little more prosaic:
Grilled gammon steak, with potatoes, carrots, red cabbage and green beans.
A large orange for desert, and all washed down with a 2022 Le Vieux Château Guibeau, Puisseguin Saint-Émilion.
Yup! I also drink orange and grapefruit juice for brekky, but the Compal stuff, from the local Portuguese deli, is pretty special:)Quote:

Excellent. Is it a Laithwates jobbie?
One of these days I'm going to wean you off Claret;)
Marco.
P.S In future, I mean take the pic of the wine you're drinking and post it along with your food.
