Never heard that expression before but it did make me laugh.

Mon nez est retiré.
My comfort food when I'm feeling rough is Heinz Cream of Tomato Soup with lots of salt, two crusty rolls with butter, and a sorry look on my face to try and gain sympathy from the Mrs.... which never happens because she's a nurse, and I'd need to ventilated, haemofiltrated and wired up to a 16 lead ECG to get so much as an 'awww...'

Ah you call that a sandwich....
Pah...
Having lived in Wigan, things kinda get serious in the barm / or bap /or roll department up there...
Pie in barm is a regular lunch time sight around town, I used to love them or a pasty in a barm.
It lead me down a dangerous path, which was fine when I was fitting, I would never put weight, now though I have to check myself when I get the urge...
I have had Pizza, Fried Rice, Chow Mien, Pasty, Melton Mowbray Pie, Pork & Egg Gala Pie, Lasagne, Fish Pie, and more all stuffed in thick white doorstop bread of some kind, dripping with butter and mayo....
Comfort food..........

�� I thought I was out on limb with Shepard's pie sandwich but that is on a completely different level

Sprouts
I was once told, back in the day, probably during the war, the only green veg that still grew in Nov/Dec was Sprouts hence why it is served at Xmas. I’ve no idea if that is bollocks just to get you to eat the vile things!?

Hangover pre-emptive cure back in the day - A Gut Buster at Brighton’s Market Diner. Pleased to see that the cafe is still open when parking near there at the weekend.
Otherwise, love the occasional curry and the frequent consumption of chocolate.

When I was a kid, this was the go to lunch from my parents when I was ill. One of them would come home from work at lunchtime and make me the soup and I would also usually get one of those strange sponge cakes with the pink icing to eat which, in later life, I found out were called Tottenham cakes.
