New thread here

Flashbacks to the other year where that chap tried the egg thing about 6 dishes in a row.

Fucking hell...chicken feet and raw egg!?..

Yeah, that doesn't look like a fun job.

Monkfish.......and marmite?

Marmite. Boak

Or did I mishear that?

DH about the marmite emulsion: Why would you do that to the fish? You might as well shovel horse shit on it.

DH doesn't like marmite.

I love marmite. My snack box had the marmite peanut butter in it this month, it's vile. Like someone poured salt in peanut butter and the lid fell off.

Christian's looking at that meat as if to say 'so that's the canapé, where's the main course?'

Snack box?

What's that long looking thing with the short ribs

Bacon and banana say what now? Is that the Brazilian "soil"?

Ha ha. The swanky restaurant they’re currently in is the old Bethnal Green Town Hall. I remember when they used to hold boxing tournaments there. How things change. The gentrified face of the east end. Mind you, a lot of these former public buildings were quite magnificent.

This plays to David's plating strengths.

Why does it always look

A- not enough to fill anyone
B- pissed about with so much it will be cold by the time it gets to the table

And now with everything...them handling the food makes me gip even more than normal ...

I agree IntheShadow - no dish should have to be put together using tweezers.

It's a tasting menu, so I guess everything will be small.

I get the feeling they're slightly running out of venues for this round actually. Didn't they used to split them up and send them to different places in two teams, and usually to Mayfair or the West End or somewhere a bit swankier?

I’m alive!!! I’ve been watching very behind and keep forgetting when it’s on.

I’m actually in labour right now Will come back and hopefully update you soon

Yyyaaaaay Shirley
