Went out for dinner tonight and ordered sausage and mash from the menu. It said it came with garden peas, but mentioned nothing about salad.

This is gross right?

This reminds me of when we had fish and chips at little Hampton and they put salad on the plate first then served the rest the lettuce went all limp and disgusting from the hot food so wrong, I think you win though

WhoWouldHaveThoughtThat · 13/08/2020 10:22

That's dreadful, how could they serve that? There's no mayonnaise on the salad.

@GarlicMonkey

My fiancé would ask for that. He has gallons of gravy on everything. He even covers quiche in the stuff.
Fiance? You mean you're still going to marry the weirdo? 🤣🤣

Yuck. Would of been sent straight back.

Nottherealslimshady · 13/08/2020 10:26

Did hey pour the gravy on for you? Surely gravy comes in a little jug so you can put it where you want it 😳

Imgladimnotyourchild · 13/08/2020 10:36

We stopped at Subway.I asked my husband to get me a salad sub. When they asked if he wanted it heated he said yes. He has never had warm salad , so why?

Rebelwithallthecause · 13/08/2020 10:51

Blimey!

Quite apart from the salad nonsense that's a pathetic portion of sausage and mash

HouchinBawbags · 13/08/2020 11:50

Speaking as someone who used to own a guesthouse, that meal, free grub with a Groupon offer or not, should have far more on anyway! Sausages when bought from catering wholesalers are cheap, (or just as cheap if you get stock from Farmfoods!) potatoes cost pennies, frozen peas and a couple of boiled sliced carrots is pennies too. There is absolutely no need to bulk out the plate with a garnish.

Nowt wrong with chips and gravy, it's akin to eat crisps and gravy, you just end up with mush and gravy.

GennyCrabby · 13/08/2020 12:09

Chips and gravy is a great British tradition.

That gravy needs to go back to it's room to think about what it means to be gravy, get thicker and stop molesting salad

Durgasarrow · 13/08/2020 13:11

What is that abomination

HaudMaDug · 13/08/2020 13:26

Sorry to turn your stomachs but what's wrong with salad and gravy? I have chicken and salad with chicken gravy with added cayenne pepper at least 4 nights a week. I love it. No need for fatty mayo's, just a bit of bread to mop the plate with. Mmmmm. Can't wait till teatime. Smile

It's too horrified at the abomination of lettuce and gravy to cooperate with spelling

SleepingStandingUp · 13/08/2020 14:20

Where do all the gravy saladers come from? Must be regional

Depends on your know. You shouldn't chop lettuce with a metal knife
