M&S foodhall

[PyjamaFan]

I'm going to a bug M&S foodhall tomorrow, for the first time in about a year.

Any recommendations?

Om my list already:

Count on Us chocolate mousse
Tuna fishcakes

Beyond that I need some suggestions!

TIA.

I forgot about Belgian Curls. My biscuit of choice from M&S!

Mexican layered dip

Bang bang prawn salad
Chocolate covered peanuts
Dried apple slices - my go to snack

Cheese scones from the bakery, not in packets on the shelf, the bakery ones are awesome and I can eat them without butter, if you add butter they are even better.

Omg the four cheese ravioli and crust bread is amazing! Better than many restaurants!
Always are special occasion meal 🤣🤣🤣

The pitta chips, very moreish.

Individual trifles

Lemon iced buns, I eat both in the packet at once.

The bang bang dip. I have to limit myself to buying it once a week because I can’t stop eating it, I don’t even need anything to dip in it, more than happy to eat it with a spoon!! I need help!! 😂

The prawn gyozas with ponzu dip are really good too.

Burger slaw 😋

Look out for yellow stickers on stuff that can be frozen. Some good bargains.

If she goes in after 4 he will probably have gone home.
Also....which chips go well with steak ? 😋

Steak, cheese and chip pie £5.50 but worth it!

The giant jalapeño corn. Its in a green bag where the nuts and snacks are. And the bakewell tart cake next to the bakery section. Oh and the dark chocolate rice cakes.

You can thank me later...😆

Custard choux buns

Their green grapes are so crunchy and juicy.

DH loves the chicken kievs, redcurrant puffs, cheddar and caramelised onion rolls and those Christmas crisps/snacks mix.

Their frozen chunky haddock/ cod, battered or breaded fish is nice.

Ooh and dirty fries

The truffle crisps and marzipan balls, the pistachio cookies, the almond and butter thins. The steak pie on the £12 meal deal is lush. The £6 stir fry deal, the takeaway boxes. Just not the pizza deal, I really don't like their pizza.

And the fruit loaf, croissants, butter biscuits, Cornish cruncher, lemon and lime yoghurts.

I second @KassandraOfSparta's suggestion of looking at the red shelf labels, particularly today. My local store had lots of things at 1/4 or 1/2 the original prices.

They seem to do this at certain times of year: the cheaper prices first appear on Monday evenings or Tuesday mornings. I think now they are making space on their shelves for Christmas lines.

I also recommend the plant kitchen bangers and burgers. For some reason (and it's the same for M&S on the Ocado website) what looks like exactly the same items are cheaper if you buy them frozen rather than fresh. It's probably to do with less wastage.

Ours have a space where they were selling the lemon and lime jaffa cakes for 30 p a pack but sadly they were sold out before I got there, but there might be some left somewhere.

Another mention for the £12 Gastro pub meal deal. I like the paella and pannacotta, and then just tend to get some chips or a posh garlic bread.

Just heading off to pick up DS. Shall report back.

My children love the mini Eton mess puddings and the Belgian chocolate milkshake, also they loved the frozen salmon fish cakes when they were little.

Apologies for repeats but
Ice cream bites (birthday cake ones )

Richly fruited loaf is gorgeous toasted with Cheshire cheese

The “goes with anything” jar of pasta sauce is very good
sny of their antipasti or little nibble packs of things
