ahem, chat host Martin…having some shot in your pheasant is traditionally a sign of good food. It means that the pheasant hasn’t been bought in Iceland or somewhere. Mind you, if you had that in a pub, some con-merchant chef may have put the shot deliberately into the bird to keep up appearances. I’ve long learned to keep away from pubs for food, if I can help it. There are good pubfood guides on the web, but I found that they are not that good.However, when I’m desperate (for food, that is) and there’s nowhere else to eat, I’ve even gone into Macdonald’s for a Horseburger.
Two words………. Tom Kerridge (Michelin starred pub food)
What about Tom Kerridge ?? He certainly looks differnt these days doesn’t he. He’s almost gone too thin …. sorry I digressed. Wanders off muttering it’s my thread & I’ll digress if I want too
Tom Kerridge is making himself look ill.
I get a feeling Laines comment was coz of Scep more or less tarring all pubs with the same brush.
Nothing wrong with a Maccys D’s either, they serve a purpose.
