No eating greens I don't specialise in greens. Not bad at British cabbage and Coliflower cheese as the wife liked them as did daughter. Salads I left to others. Bloody rabbit food. Lol

Lol - that where your 'Brit status' shines through! Europeans love salads, because we know how to make them tasty!:ner::eyebrows:

No dry, limp lettuce leaves here....

Tonight’s two plater (buns were in toaster a little too long)

Looks good, Roy!:)
Marco.
Went down a treat thanks even though the brioche buns were a little crispy (carbon's good for you though, right?)Quote:

Nice one. For me, after using the freshest ingredients you can get hold of, *that* is what a salad is all about!Quote:

Yet so often, here in the UK, even in some decent restaurants, the 'side salad' is either an afterthought, and consists of nothing more exciting than bog-standard lettuce, cucumber and tomato, and if you're VERY lucky, some red onion - but only served dry, with hee-haw dressing on it.
WTF is that about?:scratch: For me, it makes it virtually inedible! And, if they're trying to be 'exotic', you'll get it smothered instead with balsamic vinegar!!:doh:
There's just no understanding or finesse. In my experience, that only changes in the very best 'British style' restaurants, or if you dine in a European one. Greek salads, for me, in that respect, can be among the best:)

The nearest I came to fresh salad was when doing the Bear Grylls thing but I was literally starving to death ! ( they didn’t plant any pigs or crocodiles then )

Lol... See I'm not really a big meat person, and we all eat WAY too much of it anyway, to be healthy!
The only thing I'd *really* miss is chicken. Other than that, I could quite happily turn veggie, especially being married to a vegeterian who really knows how to make superb veggie food!
And I love all forms of rice and pasta, so that would bulk things out if necessary:)
Marco.
A bit the same. Chicken I love and eat a lot but red meat not so often now. Occasionally minced in some form. Pork too I like and an occasional leg of lamb if flush. Only cut of beef I have now really is brisketQuote:
