It's where the old now demolished library was - in part of the New PwC office building complex near the art gallery in Chamberlain square.it's amazing but safer to book a table although they do do some walk ins. Lovely buzzy informal cafe style and we all agreed food delicious plus medium priced.Is Dishoom the one on Broad Street? It is always busy when I'm striding back to the carpark.
The "salmon" made me laugh as well. Fish soup in the offing.I'd be pretty ****** off if someone suggested they'd bring me salmon and it turned out they brought just the bones! Still, it made me laugh out loud.
Yesterday in Germany I bought something called raclette cheese.
I wasn't sure what you're supposed to do with it, but a tiny picture on the package resembled a frying pan, so that's what I did.
I shoved it on a slice of this German LC seedy bread, which was pretty good.

Ah.

Hope your eye is better soon! And I hope those were Tunnocks, as anything else is a crime...Morning all. I had my 2 chicken legs and cauli and broccoli yesterday, then ruined it by eating a pack of marshmallow teacakes (my weakness). But my fbg had come down. Yet the day before I had eaten next to no carbs and it was in the 8's! I have a problem with my eye. It's very sore and itchy on the lid and this morning quite swollen. I can't get an appt at the surgery so will go to the pharmacist and see if they can help. Have a nice day all.
You could use raclette, but reblochon is the usual cheese for tartiflette, can you get that, Annb? That is my comfort food or was, delicious, hearty & warming.The "salmon" made me laugh as well. Fish soup in the offing.
Raclette cheese is great for melting and is the one used in the dish called tartiflette. I heard somewhere that the dish was invented to use that cheese because the producers needed a market. I love tartiflette but it doesn't work for me with celeriac to replace the potato, so I don't bother these days. Of course, I can't get raclette here but could get it from Amazon - if it wasn't so expensive. Of corse, it can be used in any kind of grilled cheese dish, as you have found.

Interesting I see you are from Cardiff and my local Aldi as closed for refurbishment too ..possibly the same one ?It is. I like Aldi's steaks, but my local one has closed for refurbishment, so this one was from Lidl. Their 10% Greek yoghurt is lovely though. We won't mention Lidl's wine though.
You're quite right. I confused raclette with reblochon. Can't get either here. Unspecified goat's cheese and Wensleydale with cranberries is as exotic as we get. Other than that it's Cheddar - choice of red or white.You could use raclette, but reblochon is the usual cheese for tartiflette, can you get that, Annb?

Dinner will be a duck leg with cavolo then barolina occelli & cambozola to follow.
Easy to get them muddled, both begin with r & are melty.You're quite right. I confused raclette with reblochon. Can't get either here. Unspecified goat's cheese and Wensleydale with cranberries is as exotic as we get. Other than that it's Cheddar - choice of red or white.
The agree icon was for the amount of " junk " food and in my case takeaways also add to the cost . Therefore as you said it can balance out the cost of the expensive " healthy " food .Not too bad today, intermittent fasting 8pm to 2pm then started with a few buttered asparagus spears, followed by 2 buttered hard boiled eggs and (fell for an ancient grains loaf in the supermarket bakery, and I know I had no business being in the bakery in the first place but you know... human...) two slices of ancient grains bread. It had the least additives of all the breads there, providing they are being truthful! The rest of the loaf has been frozen and will only make an appearance on special occasions.
Numbers have been good considering the bread, I had four tiger prawns with asparagus for tea just now followed by some pumpkin seeds.
Strong black coffee and matcha green tea.
I know I eat a lot of expensive stuff at the moment but since I'm not buying chocolate, sweets, savoury snacks, bread, cakes and assorted junk foods, and also eating less as the good stuff makes me full quicker, my food shopping bill has gone down from being close to £100 per week to being £30 to £50 per week! Yep I really was eating that much ****.
Oh goodness me yes - takeaways and supermarket versions of them were 90% of my diet. Very expensive! I have to say though that if I were still working I wouldn't have the motivation, time or energy to be doing what I am now - so my heart goes out to anyone who is in that position.The agree icon was for the amount of " junk " food and in my case takeaways also add to the cost .

I've never seen one of those before (I've led a sheltered life lol ) looks very interesting.Ooh, I have a Raclette grill sort of like this but with a stone on top you can change to the grill

Always have one or takeaways a month ...still have kids at home ( grown up ones ) so its a favourite . Not fussed on supermarket versions though .Oh goodness me yes - takeaways and supermarket versions of them were 90% of my diet. Very expensive!

And a lovely social dinner for a small group too.I've never seen one of those before (I've led a sheltered life lol ) looks very interesting.
