Oooh that sounds lush.
I can imaginarily smell and taste those mulled wine spices with venison and yes that sounds like a really good combo.

Chicken Stew has morphed into Chicken Chasseur, which is what tends to happen if I have all the ingredients for the latter to hand.
I do love a Chicken Chasseur.
It will come back into fashion more generally at some point, but it never went out of fashion for me

I might put a couple of dumplings in it if I can be arsed, despite it being the sort of culinary offense that might cause an international incident

Cobblers are more traditional with chicken.

 

[Epona]

Cobblers are more traditional with chicken.

That requires me to have the oven on though, I can do stew and dumplings on the hob.
(And cobblers are no less heartburn inducing for me unfortunately).

 

[moose]

Boulevardier cocktails. Melanzane Parmigiana, baked spud, braised wedge of cabbage.
I might explode.

 

[Zorra]

Both kids were out which never happens, so beers and a dirty kebab for me, and whatever someone else organised for them

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Had to have my sweet chilli tofu (Aldi) with japanese 'togarashi' rice because someone had eaten all my noodles. A surprisingly good combination.

That does sound like it would work

 

[newme]

Lazy big frozen pizza with 1/4lb of Salami Milanesi cooked on top with extra cheese on that. Now looking at a trio of a rocket lolly, twister and some Vienetta for afters.

Fucking hell, being a lazy bugger is tasty sometimes.

Also now wondering how this could be most pretentiously put on a menu.

Just write 'hand cut' or 'seasonal' in front of it.

I saw one recently that said it contained "hand-leafed" lettuce.
Well done, someone pulled some leaves off a lettuce.
Slow clap

When it says 'hand cut chips' you know you are getting about 8 luke warm chips in a Jenga tower.

Also I'm generally quite happy with chips cut by a food processor or other mechanical cutting device, as long as they are real potato and fresh.
I don't think having someone cutting chips all day (probably on minimum wage and bored out of their mind) inherently makes the chips better.
It's more about are they freshly cut before being cooked, rather than delivered in a big bag or stored in a tub of water for ages before being cooked.

 

[Monte]

Last time I had to hand cut chips I went out and bought one of these.
Saved me about half an hour each day.

I don’t even know what most of that is, but it sounds awesome!
