Reader’s Collection 1

As promised… I said if you guys take pictures of food, I am willing to post them on here.

So first we have A&J’s homemade specialities. I asked for a description… because I didn’t taste it, but I guess I will just have to wing it. Why didn’t you guys invite me over for food? :( anyhow…

First is a homemade pizza. From what I was told, it contained mozzarella cheese that was only like 1~2% milk, due to people who had issues with lactose. The pizza dough was the ready, store brought kind, good for people in a hurry.  Tomato sauce was mildly spread on, then topped with green peppers, tomatoes, and lots lots lots of jalapeno. The cheese comes on at the end. Looks pretty scrumptious.

Next, they made an onion potato casserole. It looks rather cheesy… unless, its the soup base for the casserole… but we all know that casseroles = lad’n with cheese.

Lastly, we have a remake of TGIF potato skins with some sort of a ranch dressing. Potato skins look really tasty and dressing looks creamy. This has cheese on it too! Someone sure likes cheese a whole lot, but I don’t blame them, I love cheese too!

Good job A&J, thanks for the pictures!


Next, AS has provided us with a special opportunity to see what people in Ipswich, England eat for lunch. Its called the Ploughman’s Lunch. Here is a description for it in his own words:

First, I’ll say that I did have the option to choose between either a hunk of ham or cheddar and I chose the ham. Along with my meal I ordered a pint of Adnams Broadside which I heard was a beer amongst beers.

First, the beer. It had a pretty good colour and smell, but it had a very musky finish though it quickly faded into a decent aftertaste. As I’ve describe it before, it was kind of like kissing someone who smoked a pipe.

 

To the dish itself. The bread came out most favourably. Three thick slices of fresh white bread. To add to that, they came out with a large hunk of butter. Normally I wouldn’t indulge myself with the butter, but when in Rome. The ham was nothing to speak of, though it wasn’t bad. Just your typical ham slices. The side salad had a mixture of greens and some red cabbage. The real kicker to the meal was the condiment section. I’m not actually sure what they were. The dark purpley was so bitter and salty I didn’t fully try it. What I think was baby onions soaked in vinegar were actually quite good, and the next almost seemed like a mustard vegetable medley.

 

I may order this dish again, but next time I’ll just stick to the meat and bread and let the other parts stay where they are.

Thanks buddy and also thanks to M for emailing me this.
