Smallman1 The confit potatoes always get talked about.

Absolutely standard from Smallman, going to a decent restaurant and then ordering / talking about the most basic dish or side on the menu.

Didn’t he go to some great Italian and basically order Spag Bol and garlic bread?

What a fucking idiot.

      bosstrabs to be fair to Ed, those potatoes are one of their famous dishes.

        Im sure what Ed was blown away most by, was the finely chopped spring onion that was surely sprinkled so delicately over them.

        And rightly so.

          He was so chuffed with the spuds, he ordered extras. Twice.

          Then has the fucking stones to criticise the Irish.

              I actually imagine Smallman in all these restaurants sat at the end of the table in a high chair, eating the chicken dippers and Alphabites while everyone he’s with tucks into terrine de foie gras or rabbit ravioli.

              Hardly stones when you’re fucking oblivious to your own shite

                mono-stereo Had lunch in The Quality Chop House in Farringdon today. Had the chateaubriand. Bit of a treat. Expensive but great food.

                I worked just across the street from there about 10 years ago so also had lunch in there a couple of times. It was quality indeed.

                  Jules72 I’ve been to hardly any of those, but of the London ones on the list I would rate Hawksmoor at no 1

                  What would be your no 1 on the list?

                      Never quite understood the fuss around steakhouses. It’s not like steak is difficult to cook at home. If I’m going to drop a ton of money on a restaurant meal it’s going to be for something either too difficult or too fussy to make on my own.

                        Jules72 hawksmoor at number 1…. Laughable

                        Angus Steakhouse nowhere to be seen either, jokes.

                          None of those Steakhouses mentioned are in the same league as Keens in NY. Their Porterhouse for two or Mutton Chop are spectacular.
