The really low-end restaurant thread
Potato Gratin. Loads of cream and nutmeg, cheese on top. I’ll have two portions please, sir.
The only good thing the French do to potatoes are French fries.
Fair, Grant, but the Belgians do them better.
Thicker cut, always double cooked.
bosstrabs You’re absolutely correct, of course, I do prefer a thicker chip, but was just giving the French a tiny bit of credit.
I like how the Dutch cover them in that special Mayo. Top notch.
You promised you’d never tell anyone

You have chips above Fondant, Gratin (or Dauphinoise), Lyonnaise, Pommes Anna?
seanc80 Yup. Fondant is just posh mashed potato. I don’t like all the butter, cream and general sloppiness
seanc80 Also, I don’t really like French food in general, so it’s not often a choice I have to make.
Is anyone keeping a speadsheet on what Grant doesn’t like? 
Hursty I know what I like and what I don’t. It’s a good place to be.
What sean doesn’t know about spuds isn’t worth knowing
Grant doesnt like garlic or butter or any of that yucky stuff.
He likes a well done breaded chicken breast with some ketchup. And fair play to him.
seanc80 cheeky cunt. I love garlic - I love continental food too, just not French.
Ireland’s haute cuisine backbone was built on Michelin starred French cooking.
It’s a funny old game.
Even though you don’t know it, Smallman . You are correct.
