[Albion] Vegetable Tagine and Rice in the East Stand

[GJN1]

Not sure if it's available in the rest of the Amex, but I simply do not believe that anyone has ever bought this on a match day.

Prove me wrong.

Seen it advertised in the WSL

I recall both @halbpro and @Hotchilidog posting about having it before.

I have had it. It's alright. I'd rather they'd do a nice vegan burger though, there are so many good ones available now I cannot understand why they don't do do them. Much easier to eat than the pies which thankfully are now vegan.

The pies are vegan? Cheeky sods, they advertise them as Steak & Ale and Chicken & Gammon. To be fair I didn't notice a difference in taste.

I agree wholeheartedly.

I'm confused why they'd serve it with rice rather than couscous which would be more authentic, far easier to cook and less likely to give you food poisoning sitting at a weird temperature for 5 hours

The veggie ones are now. They were not to begin with, and I did mention this to Piglets a long while back. I'm glad that their pies are now available to all those of the veggie persuasion. Now my complaint is that they run out of them in the WSU too quickly!

It seems like an unnecessarily fancy product, a nice vegan burger or hotdog would be just fine. No need to over think it, we are at the football not a restaurant.

It’s the only gluten free option from memory

 

[Snowflake]

I’ve had it. Thought it could do with a bit more spice. But Mrs Snowflake disagrees (she can’t take the heat). Now the old Veggie burgers they used to serve a couple of years back were great. Mrs Snowflake wants them back!

Yeah have had it. It's decent enough. You do get a pretty good quantity, and it was very warming while in the train queue. It's not gonna blow anyone away, but I think it's ok for what it is.

Been vegan for nearly two years i think.

Brighton order between 800-1000 pies a game i do believe.

Nice one. Congrats on the two years

Its the only Gluten free option on the menu. I know someone who would usually have this in the past. The Tagine has been pretty sparesly available since the Liverpool Cup game however, so they've taken to sneaking in their own Gluten free sandwiches as there's bugger all else they can eat bar packets of crisps and sweets.

 

[Swimboy64]

One of the Uckfield Agriculture crew who sit behind me in the lower west has it every game and says it’s the best thing they sell in the way of food.Personally I’ve never bothered wit it

 

[Al Bion]

I have the tagine most matches, I prefer it to a pie but it's not been available in the North Stand for the last few home games (despite still being advertised on the board). Hoping it's back on Saturday!

 

[BNthree]

Nice one. Congrats on the two years

Think they're saying the pies have been for 2 years, not them.

Prove me wrong.

At a recent home game I witnessed something quite spectacularly middle class.

A man got to the front of the queue in the concourse, then after checking he turned around and shouted;

"Seb....SEB! SEBASTIAN - THEY'VE RUN OUT OF THE VEG TAGINE, WHAT DO YOU WANT?!"

I struggled not to laugh.

Fair to say we're not a Burnley or a Millwall, are we?

 

[Rowdey]

I’ve had one in the North stand back in the championship.. pretty decent.. and I had no idea what it was before buying..!
