He's already got my back up with his one berry tea and pollen.

Mock duck? Hmm, reserving judgment there

I'm more than happy to eat veggie food, but if my starter at the banquet was beetroot, I'd worry I was in for a long night.
I'm always surprised how much they use it on Aussie Masterchef.

Yeah, I’m quite happy with vegan food when it’s proper tasty with different textures

No, very bland. I do like Tom and his detailed critiques, and the scores seem to match the chat.

Fishless fish course… 🤦‍♀️

Tom can be a bit of a taskmaster but he’s actually been pretty good so far.
I think they all seem a bit ‘meh’ tonight, nothing exciting!

I was hoping Hrishikesh would be back competing for the NW. His food was always so beautiful and imaginative but the horrible judges never appreciated him.

Those submarines are fabulous.

Tom can be a bit of a taskmaster 🤣🤣 is that code for physically abusive? 🤣🤣
Talking of Tom, did anyone see him on snackmasters recently?

Back to the menu, I was vegan for a quite long time and there was an amazing vegan restaurant in Brixton at one point. They did a mock duck dish which I was obsessed with. All set in an old church crypt full of goth velvet and fabulousness. Loved it.

jay55 · 05/05/2021 20:46

Yes I enjoyed his kfc snackmasters. He seemed quite annoyed by the whole thing.

The site keeps un-watching this thread, it’s annoying me

@FeatheredHope it was code for ‘a bit of a knob’ but I was conscious I’d called Daniel Clifford a dick earlier in the thread so was trying to be more diplomatic Grin
