@BluntJeromy @Skint_Eastwood1 What does 'pop her in the teeth' mean? Are you recommending hitting a woman? Is that what 'decent men' do?

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@SteveSims_HS @robnitm Sounds interesting. I wonder what happened to that, and why you don't find that any more.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks One or two. Food usually mediocre.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks Really? I'll double check before I accuse you of bullshitting me - but I've never seen it myself.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks You know the answer to this is 'nowhere'.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks Yes, I get it: all foreign cuisine. Don't get me wrong, I like foreign food, but it would be nice to be able to get good, simple affordable local food.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks St John is great, but quite pricey and a 'special occasion' destination. Song Que more everyday, but foreign/exotic. I'm thinking just a simple everyday affordable lunch, like you could find in Asia, but not Asian food.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@1886RedArmy @NJSimmondsbooks The whole idea that food needs to be part of a 'scene' is part of the problem.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@JamiemArch2017 @NJSimmondsbooks Just name a few. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@NJSimmondsbooks @JamiemArch2017 'Bot'? If you know some places that fit that description, just tell me. No need to run scared or take offence. What's wrong with you people?

@NJSimmondsbooks If you were a visitor to London and wanted to have a simple lunch of fried or grilled mackerel (with salted crispy skin), boiled baby new potatoes with butter, and a green salad, where could you go?

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@liamodaily @BanderReturn There's nothing particularly British about liver and onions (look up 'fegato alla veneziana' for example). In fact, most British people are scared of offal nowadays.

@WhiteHorseFinal @HaruhiCrowley @ArmoredNorman I wouldn't class Davidsow as a 'cheap' supermarket brand. Their 'classic' (low end) is aged 12 months. Their 'special reserve' is 60 months. Owned by a Canadian multinational company (founded by an Italian). Industrial manufacture, but consistently excellent.

@SteveSkojec Children eating food that appeals to children, with the table manners of children.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@smith_john37671 @firasd @mary_pezzulo Our (English) bread is 'better'? Better than what? Most English bread nowadays, even from independent bakeries, is vile, industrial-quality crap. As an Englishman it pains me to say it, but it's true.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@WhiteHorseFinal @e_f_bartlam And that 'most British people' even includes me - and I'm a bit of a food snob/obsessive/connoisseur by most people's standards.

[Dladlin G @GDladlin]

@WhiteHorseFinal @e_f_bartlam OK, I didn't realise Americans had such low expectations when it came to cheese. But I guess it's similar to comparing Italian and English expectations of pasta. I consider myself reasonably well-informed about food, but even I can't get too fussed about 'top quality' pasta.
