[Orang Utan]

Telling.

Tis the Urban way

[snowy_again]

An Ex-Brixtonite was responsible for that ^^^ monstrosity.

 

[London_Calling]

John Major?

 

[Orang Utan]

What's that got to do with owt?

 

[London_Calling]

I'm humming it, and so must you.

 

[Orang Utan]

Nope. Why did you post it?

 

[London_Calling]

yes.

 

[Orang Utan]

So you're just being a passive aggressive twat then. Grow some balls.

 

[London_Calling]

Oh dear.

 

[Badgers]

Just past KFC. Open for takeaway only so OU is okay. We all look forward to his next review.

 

[Orang Utan]

STOP CHARACTERISING ME AS A FAST FOOD JUNKIE!
I cook!

 

[quimcunx]

Well you didn't seem to like being characterised as a food snob either. Make your mind up.

 

[Badgers]

Went to Wild Caper in the market today but they had just closed. Woman came out and stopped me walking away, offering some of the days leftover pastries for free cold pizza slice and a doughnut

 

[Orang Utan]

I am a food snob - if I ever said I wasn't I must have been fooling myself

Do you rate the chips/fries from KFC? They are often maligned but I prefer them to McDs or BK myself. Obviously they are frozen but that is okay on occasion.

 

[Orang Utan]

I don't really have an opinion on them. It's all about the chicken. I only get chips cos i feel I ought to. They're ballast. I kind of inhale them without tasting them

 

[Dan U]

There should be some kind of urban challenge, see how quickly every single roast potato in the Albert can be scoffed

 

[Orang Utan]

I don't think it would be much of a challenge. They'd be gone in seconds. Though it ain't it's only a stone's throw from Iceland to get more I suppose

 

[Donx]

Fuck me...........Moira Stewart is in the Prince!!!!!

 

[Badgers]

Fuck me...........Moira Stewart is in the Prince!!!!!

What is she eating?

Word about the roast potatoes spreads life wildfire ...

McDs chips and KFC chips are one and the same to be but Burger King ones are truly rank...haven't had any in years but they always had the taste/texture of polystyrene to me.
Perfect shit takeaway meal = KFC gravy, Burger King burger, McDs chips.

 

[peterkro]

Shortcake from a tartened tin.

We have gone proper viral or something

 

[kittyP]

Am I the only one who never realised the Albert did food....

Yes

I was going to back you up by saying I could see you POV about paying for average frozen pub food, even though i don't mind it.


But seeing as you will happily eat a KFC after arguing all that, I take it back

 

[Donx]

Moira is eating nothing in The Prince.....she is heading to the Albert....

I like to go to a Gordon Ramsay restaurant, probably Claridges, get the Tasting Menu to take away, freeze it at home, get the Albert to warm it through for a fiver and pint of Kronenbourg, and eat among friends. It ticks all the boxes, especially if I can lay my hands on some Big Mac sauce.

Edited to add: I wonder if the Crown and Anchor have a proper gentrified microwave and could do this for me.

I know your story is lies cos they don't sell Kronenbourg in The Albert
