Posh Food

Posh Food

Our MD is taking us to Hardwick Hall on Friday for some food but I am the fussiest eater ever. I totally hate stuff with sauces etc on. I've had a look at the menu and I don't have a clue what things are eg what is chicken consomme? cider jus? At places like these is it OK to ask for things without sauces on or do they think you're daft?!

its usually just normal food but in a smaller portion with fancy decoration and an even fancier name.

I dare you to ask for egg and chips

Re: Posh Food

consomme is soup

jus is a thin sauce

i think i would think someone was daft if they asked for food without the sauce in a decent restaurant, as every part of the dish is made to compliment the other

The 2 things I am looking at that I could possible contemplate are:

Poached Chicken Breast, Duck Livers, Chicken Consomme, Spring Greens

OR

Loin of Pork, Cabbage Parcels, Parma Ham, Cider Jus

But I really can't stand any kind of sauces or anything slimy? Will the duck livers be slimy?! My usual meals involve any kind of meat and chips but I always ask for no sauces, and I know I won't be able to eat it if it comes with any on

If consomme is soup, will that mean that it is poured over the chicken? They should just tell you plain and simple what it is

So what if it's a posh restaurant ... if you don't like sauce, ask for it without ... i'm sure you won't be the first .... just say it's down to a food intolerance or something. Better to enjoy it the way you like it !!!!

JUst ask for it without sauce! People always do that where I work...its not as posh but a lot if well off people come in who ask for food exactly how they like it.!! Whats the point of eating something you don't like!

the girl talks sence

Where do you work Jess? Any discounts? with sauce though.

I work at pane e vino! I can't do discounts lol but you should come its nice!

Is it the wee Italian across from the Statiion?

I have been known to moon walk by there on a Friday night to the amusement of some of your regulars.

yeah although I try to avoid the station like the black plague! lmao lmao I work on a friday night!

The tables at the window are too tempting for playing the fool on the way to the Indian.

i've got that picture in my head now... half masts, white socks, black slip ons, collar up...

Which indians do you go to? the one on the right hand side of pane e vino (if you were standing outside facing them) if we ever go in there for change when cashing up at the end of the night theres like only one person in and always looks dead quiet and they r like so how many have u done n im like ahem 180...and im like what about you and the man is like 20

DISCLAIMER - by "done" I mean seated in the restaurant not taken to the toilets for a steamy sesh as my bike votes may lead you to beleive

!!

lmao

Youre exactly the same as Stephen! Cant take him anywhere cos doesnt like anything with flavour!!
