Great British Menu Thread 3 - When Harry Met Sally And We All Wanted What She Was Having…

[Sunbird24]

Here we go again!

Helloooo

Boo. Can I join? So excited to see the judges enjoying these lovely meals.

Ooo, dissent in the judges ranks.....

🍸🍸

Pickled cockle popcorn! Still love saying that out loud

Julian was an anchoress. Harry probably knew her. Quiet and contemplative just proves how clever and evocative the dish was.

Welcome @Doubleraspberry it is so nice to hear them enjoying things.
And I love most of the choices of people for inspiration this round too.

I just tried. I can’t say it

It is clever

I cannot say how much I love an artichoke salad in tribute to Julian of Norwich. What a world we live in.

This is going to be close isn’t it?

Yes and both them chefs are better than any before in the heats

Hello placemark so I keep my name - tweezers are out.

I have very high hopes that the loser is the wild card. Every year you see the variation in the regions but this straight after Wales has been particularly stark. I said to DH that it’s been a pleasure to watch them all at work compared to the Welsh lot, who I literally watched through my fingers as they dropped/burnt/lost bits of their dishes.

Wales was awful.

Ok I bet salli winner now. Jinx

Harry’s venison rack gives me War of the Worlds vibes

Rack, it's a whole ribcage

Yes, it's scary.

I think the wild card is only for a specific dish/ course, sadly, so they'd only get to do the one. Unless they are all 4 wild cards! 😃

I literally said that last night!!!

Ooooo, don't overcook it! I use the metal skewer on the bottom lip method for heat, but only because I don't have a cooking thermometer.

What Tom does not like sound of music. He’s dead to me now

I do think the massive bones thing would freak some people out. I think Sally’s one is more people pleasing. I can see Harry’s in a challenging East London restaurant being shared on the Gram.

Same.
His 9chips is bad enough but that announcement was beyond
