[Food] Ainsley Harriott Cup Soups.

[Cowfold Seagull]

Heinz tinned Mulligatawny infinitely better than AH packet version IMHO

The flavours are very different l grant you, but l do love both. Although the Heinz version is nothing like the original recipe.

I'm sure that Ainsley is a really nice bloke but any 'chef' on the telly that says Sally Salt and Percy Pepper makes me doubt their credibility.

Computer bloke I watch on Youtube says "Mr Scissors" and "Stanley the Knife" when he opens boxes. He has credibility - he is just weird.

It's £12.95 at Rick Stein's, to eat in - a huge bonus with small children, compared to the constant worry about them diving off the harbour wall whilst you're trying to eat.

I'll be there in about 6 weeks.

THe menu is here https://www.rickstein.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/A-La-Carte-22.05.2021-web.pdf as you can see £19.95 for Fish and Chips.

His Cafe menu is here https://www.rickstein.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Sample-Menus-Cafe.pdf £14.95 for a fish cake...

or your correct his takeaway is £12.95.....but for that you get no seat......

Enjoy queing with the other lemmings who want to experience 'gormet' chips..( at least there are no Japanese tourists at the moment)

Funnily enough

Me and the Mrs are heading off on our narrow boat for a few days. Ainsleys hot and sour are packed for the canals. Absolutely essential in the middle of January but nice with a pasty any time of year. His cous cous with a tin of tuna makes a great lunch.

You're quoting prices from three different restaurants!

The cheapest option is the "chippy" near the harbour and I can confirm it does have seating for about 30 people at the exact same price, given I've eaten in there several times.

Inverted snobbery is still snobbery.

Great products. No lumps like other brands and plenty of flavor

We were walking in Marlow today, as you do.
People are trying to navigate around each other, so as not to contaminate their fellow planet dwellers, we moved aside as a large immovable object was looming in our direction.
It only turned out to be Tom Kerridge, who thanked us for waiting, seems a pleasant chap, for all of the hype of celebrity chef these days.

In reply to people raving about the Wild Mushroom variety.....

A wild mushroom is a mushroom which grows in the wild, so I assume they have teams of people who wander around picking them. At the very least, they're grown outdoors in fields?

However, being a brainless fungus and I'd guess not giving a flying shit where it grows - could you not just grow the same mushroom in a super-shed, on a farm?

What's the difference? Or am I being stupid...

Sending best wishes to Ainsley Harriotts sister who fell into a water feature at the Chelsea Flower Show this afternoon.

They're not wild.

They're absolutely livid
