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

[Sunbird24]

Here we go again!

Tom Aiken’s. Yea

Evening. Let's hope we have decent chefs this week. And it looks like we might have a pantomime villain already! Can't wait.

Quite & I notice he didn’t try to be a dick with the male chefs

I imagine she’s used to a certain level of dickheadedness from men in kitchens

Forager!!

Not often that arseholes fly their flags so publicly, though....

Exactly

Tom Aikens is my least favourite veteran mentor. IIRC, there was a year when he really had a go at the chefs for helping each other.

I vaguely remember Jean from the professional version of MasterChef.

Yes Tom can be really mean.

I've read Down and Out in Paris and London. The food wasn't great. I think for added authenticity the diners should be made to wash up all their dishes after eating it.

Well that seems ironic…

Oooo, do we think Tom is going to appreciate a chef telling him his concerns about scotch bonnet heat are unfounded? Hmmmmm.....

'I'm not the tweezers kind of chef.'

Get out!

It's not foraging if you own the land. That would be gardening. Big cheat.

I missed who Jason’s inspiration was?

Stale bread and water wallpaper paste.

Beginning to think a dish based around a self-inflicted period of deprivation might not be a good idea.

It was a cricket player I think and House of Lords

Thanks

That was gardening Esma

How is Eran’s lump of fruit basted in more fruit and caramel a starter and not a dessert?

Eran loves himself

I'm bemused by the fruity starter. Watermelon and horseradish...

Jean's looks beautiful.

This is pretty

That looks very good
