Vegetarian Meals In Pubs

[spanglechick]

I'd rather have relish than salsa, if it wasn't served on the side. Lots of people don't like / can't eat chillies. But... How about the salsa in the pot on the side? Then people could leave it or eat it with a fork like coleslaw, or add it to the burger. And it would give you the colour on the plate.

Coleslaw itself is generally minging. And I don't understand having something creamy (coleslaw, mayo, tsatsiki...) with cheese. You need something acidic.

Coleslaw is amazing. It should be compulsory on every pub meal, ever.

I find coleslaw quite acidic. I also like industrial/ supermarket coleslaw but the homemade healthy kind isnt really creamy

You can't have a no gherkin policy for burgers!

Gherkins will be available. I just resent including something most people don't eat. It would be like putting a piece of pineapple on a pizza just for the few unevolved types that would eat it

Soup and coleslaw?

 

[twentythreedom]

I don't like that weird smell coleslaw often has. And coleslaw always makes me think "cold sore" immediately

Keep the coldslaw separate or as an option please

Soup and coleslaw?

Soup should be on very few menus.

 

[8115]

But yes, a little pot of coleslaw on the side of the soup would be a nice touch.

I wanted to contribute to this thread ages ago but I just don't believe in eating in pubs i'm afraid.

In Beeses Tea Gardens, Bristol they make the most amazing coleslaw and potato salad to serve with their burgers and baguettes, but you can only have one *or* the other

most people love gherkins on a burger enit?? apart from I think Yetman

 

[kittyP]

The haloumi is a bit superfluous then though isn't it? If I were to add anything to a falafel wrap I'd add olives or chillies rather than cheese

Oooh no not for me. I adore haloumi

I much prefer basic supermarket coleslaw that your MnS creamy kind I like the vinegary-ness.

I thought this but over the years I have come to find this is not true.
I think it's coz Maccy Ds do it and that was a lot of brits first exposure to burgers being readily available.
I love gherkins for the record.

I know loads of people who take them out. Fortunately I've not been many places other then McDonalds that put the vile things in them.

I used to remove the gherkin from a maccy d's burger but these days I CBA as I just want my damn cheeseburger in my belly.

my brother is the biggest arsehole to go to macdonalds with, he'll order a burger 'no gherkin' specifically cos that means they have to cook him a fresh one sans gherkin. What sort of penis does that to get a mac d's burger 5 minutes fresher than the one sitting their in the heating rack? it's hardly michelin starred grub here, he's just being a wanker.

 

[frogwoman]

gherkins should just not be allowed

They do taste better that way.

The best thing about your mandatory stint as a mcslave is getting inventive with the food and making your own non-menu items. I used to like mcnuggets doused in big mac sauce then wrapped in a cheese slice.

the other good thing is shooting people in the back with a sauce gun when they are too busy to notice. One lad got caught doing that to a supervisor and sacked, which is against the spirit of the game imo

It's not in the same league as a good falafel though

 

[Maggot]

I always avoid coleslaw as I assume it's made from battery eggs.

Battery hens were banned by the EU at the begining of 2012.

So what are non free range eggs then?

 

[Maggot]

They are laid by hens kept in 'enriched cages'.

Is there much difference between that an the old battery hen?
I think most people that didn't want to by battery eggs still don't want to buy eggs from hens in any cages.

Gherkins are vile, pointless things and as a potential customer I would request that you dynamically move forward to include a more user-friendly burger accessory.

Indeed. It's way above falafel.

I hear theres some 'free' office space going in Brixton for people who know that sort of wnkers lingo.
