Great British Menu 2025 Thread 2 - From beige sludge to poncey nonsense, but is any of it banquetworthy?

[Sunbird24]

The drama continues…

Now, this kind of food should do well as it's vegan without faking or messing with it.

She’s done beige sludge. I prefer poncey nonsense I think

I beg to differ about what it looks like

Mushrooms at last 😆🙈

It's a very mean portion. How does Japan connect to Wales or the inspiration?

Bowl of mush

Now that looks small enough that you could push it around and not actually eat it.... but what's the link to a black headmistress from Cardiff? Was she actually Japanese?

Are all his dishes gonna be japanese

'Experimental ..... There isn't a clear winner.'

They were rubbish.

Not practised. Am on same page as you Spencer

'It was essentially a bowl of soup and some bread.'

Ouch. Spencer's gone all TripAdvisor on his ass.

It was all claggy mush!!

He’s a chef he’s not cooked the tatties ffs

Too much claggy!!

If it was really nice I’d be happy with a great bread and soup even at a banquet when there are many courses

Omg 4

Uninspired so far

I've read The Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Any T.E. Lawrence dish should involved a goat you have literally just slaughtered right there in the kitchen.

Do not say that. Just in case

Nutella
Haribo
Smith's Crisps.

He could have done anything with those letters.

Lewis must have had a stretch to come up with something for N if he settled on nasturtium

Raw scallop and beef fat in the fish course - no thanks

Spencer’s face is like wtaf are these chefs like

Do is outraged. "You haven't practised? What the fuck are you doing in this show , you moron!"

Is Lewis going to have custard in all his dishes? I mean, I love custard but I'm not sure I could do a six course custard tasting menu, no matter how much twiddling with the flavours has gone on...
