I would utterly love to chuck mine into a restaurant kitchen during service. Would be oscar worthy. She's the kind who runs away squealing when i drop some meat in a smoking pan.

Finding it funny that 4 users in one page of a thread all have women who can't cook for shit. Mine won't even do the washing up! Outright refuses. Maybe i have to take a firm stand and tell her to do the dishes or to suck my dick.

Lol. At least yours has put things in the oven. Mine can't even cook instant noodles without overcooking them. When it's time for a roast though, i'll always spend the extra for lamb, and not that vac-packed shit in the supermarket. I just don't see a reason for beef, any kind. I see steak like scallops. Utter waste of money overhyped "rich man" food. Beef is good for mcdonlads burgers, pretty much the only time i'll actually pay for it.

slow cooked shin of beef pisses over lamb shank imo

Don't get me started on my missus, when I first went to Germany to meet her family her mother emphasised how all the veg came from their garden n how she hand makes everything n even the pate they had (I had to bring some home, was fucking delicious) came from a pig they bought last year to slaughter n what do I get? A gf that can't cook for shit! I have to be the only guy that's dating a German woman that can't even cook me some mother fucking schnitzel
she must be able to suck cock well cos ide fukin dismiss her lol

That's the great thing about food :) a million and one ingredients and recipes, always something to please someone. I've just never liked beef, I've eaten the stuff blumenthal is buying, kobe, you name it. I have always found that (other than a mcdonalds burger, LOVE em!) it's just a bland mess and requires a sauce, mustard etc. I love lamb because with nothing but some salt and pepper it has an amazing flavour. Not very british of me not to like roast beef :D

I rarely eat, let alone eat junk food. But i cannot find a fault with a mcdonalds double cheeseburger :) Now i'm in london i keep finding coupons in the paper for big mac and fries for £1.99, only used one coupon, but it makes for a pretty good bargain lunch between lectures while everyone else is spending silly sums on coffee, crisps, and shite from greggs. Mcdonalds and kfc zinger burgers became my guilty pleasure due to working as a chef and working with all the michelin quality produce. End up feeling sick at the notion of gourmet food, only recently been able to eat smoked salmon again.

I went to a new beef place in Leeds the other night with the missus.

It's called RARE and has only been open since November.

The steaks are priced per 100g, I had a 550g sirloin on the bone from an 18th century rare breed at £41.25 (£7.50 per 100g).

It was the best steak I've ever had.

The triple cooked chips and peppercorn sauce were extra. ;)

Ha, sod that, never understood the desire for steak, and as i say, i've eaten the best the country has to offer, cooked by some of the best chefs the country has to offer (job had some pretty good perks! company trip to the fat duck for a free tasting menu anyone? :) ). I'm actually going to be in leeds next monday, not sure how long for, but maybe i'll go take a peek and see how it smells. Not had the best of luck recently when eating out, went to a place that supposedly sold great bbq, spent a small fortune, and well, the meat was fucking appalling, they could have offered it to me for free and i'd still have gone to lidl and bought a pack of their pre-cooked ribs.

I certainly appreciate the technicalities and such of molecular cooking, but I agree, it is a bit of a joke. Watched one of Hestons cooking shows, the one where he did celebrity meals based on alice in wonderland etc, was just sat there thinking who gives a fuck. Not a chance i'd actually pay for that kind of food. I've always prefered the idea of simple good food.

That's the cliche bit over though.

I'll tell you all straight, it was a damn good steak but the peppercorn sauce was lame as fuck (needed more peppercorns and some brandy, after the 2 cold ones were replaced!) and the pint of ale I ordered at the bar came as a 2/3.

I was too busy talking to the doorman I happen to know rather than pull it at the time but the missus saw me clock the short pint out of the corner of my eye as it was served and just cringed.

Because the peppercorn sauce came cold (didn't realise till it was poured on the steak) and I didn't accept a comp drink at the time of replacement the owner wiped my meal completely from the bill (including 2 beers) while I was at the toilet and the missus was paying.


So my professional and personal evaluation of RARE is that yes they have good steak and excellent customer service (although it is overpriced) but if they can afford to and are prepared to drop around £100 in turnover (2 meals, 1 wrong and 1 complimentary) to pander to my potentially pretentious whim then they've got no business serving 2/3 pints.


CUNTS!!!!!
