I'm in the PMS zone and so just currently craving carp to eat. Right now I would love a Greggs chicken and bacon baguette, some salt n vinegar crisps (baked for preference) some sort of disgustingly gooey fudge cake and a bottle of sprite.

What's yours?

A cup of tea. Always a cup of tea. Milk, no sugar.

Grilled sea bream and a Greek salad. And a table at a waterside taverna to eat it from.

My Mum’s roast beef dinner followed by orange jelly, that has slices of jam Swiss roll in it, topped with evaporated milk.

Chips and curry sauce from a specific chinese takeout in Beeston Nottingham.

It is the one thing I really miss from the UK.

Hmmmm. Someone mentioned pina colada up thread. That sounds good. OR a slushy strawberry daquiri.

Some fried breaded okra (American southern style). A well done steak with fried onions. Greek salad.

Pavlova with mango and raspberries.

I’ve just had a very mediocre tea of chicken marsala brocolli and spuds - always the same when I’ve cooked I just never enjoy it but the dog is happy and DH loved his

I would love a big smoothie or an iced frappe with cream

Mango sticky rice - just go home from a holiday to Thailand, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it! I'm definitely going to have to have a go at making it.

Lots of coffee ice cream made with Colombian coffee beans.

Mousespoons · 14/07/2026 19:31

Some kid of mezze with lots of humus and minty yoghurt

A tall glass of lemon iced tea, thai fishcakes, chicken satay, pad thai, sticky tamarind duck, banana fritters! Can you tell I'm hungry!?

A steak tartare with french fries and a lovely refreshing Hugo spritz. And then a chocolate fondant with a tonka bean ice cream….

Digestive as a dunking preference. Lidl own brand hold their structure particularly well. Wouldn't say no to a shortbread though!

UniquePinkSwan · 14/07/2026 19:38

A blue ribeye steak

MissAmbrosia · 14/07/2026 19:39

A lamb kebab with garlic and chilli sauce and a limoncello spritz would be perfect.

Jewelanemone · 14/07/2026 19:40

Spare ribs from the Pasta and Pizza Bar in Plymouth. My absolute favourite thing.

And a cold Brandy Alexander.

ExpressHydration · 14/07/2026 19:40

Really good coffee
Large glass of cold fizzy water
Large gluten free cheese scone, salted butter
2 cold radishes
Small caramel choc square.

Please and thank you.

Because if my blood pressure medication, I’m not allowed my absolute first choice food: tinned grapefruit! I’m going mad missing grapefruit.

So I’ll have to be content with joining the other sushi/sashimi lovers on here. It’s OK I’ll survive.
