I'll take one. Double patty, extra cheese, and go heavy on the pickles, please.

When it comes to which door you choose- use the left one. The right one goes to the kitchens.

Hey! I bought some Saint Albray gourmand & cremeux today and still need to review it in this thread!

I look forward to reading it.

I had another of the Morrissons 3 Sandwich dealies yesterday.

Chicken with stuffing, Chicken and Sweetcorn and Chicken and Bacon. I added a little Lemon, Thyme and Bayleaf salt to them.

Very nice.

I know. I made that mistake once. Thankfully, I'm still fairly nimble.

Its OK. The 'special guests' are marked on entry, so you were totally safe.

Is it you bloody MISSION in life to make me hungry?

Thanks a pantsload. And the company making my cholesterol medicines would like to thank you too.

Glad to know that. But the looks I got from some members of the staff before I made good my escape... Disturbing, to say the least.

Still, the meal was impeccable!

Kumo Royales are Yumscrumpilydumptous.

St Albray is rather poor for cooking, but usually eaten with bread after a meal. It's fairly mild (say average in strength), and a "soft" cheese.

You can use it for sandwich, and some use it for salads, but you don't melt it.

I never cook with it myself, not even sandwiches. I use emmental or comté for them, for traditional sandwiches, otherwise for the fancy ones I'll use feta. But some people do.
It's a stronger taste than comté and emmental, so you do it when you really like cheese. People also upgrade to cammembert sometimes, but I don't like cammembert.

Ah yes, the infamous "kale stamp"....

Both my thyme plant and (potted and small) bay tree, have gone mad this year. Which is great news as I use both quite a bit in cooking. Sadly my brilliant oregano plant died. Damnit, it was a really good one, with loads of punch (or Blam! if you prefer) for cooking.

Thyme and Bayleaf salt sounds like an excellent condiment. I'm off to Tesco/Sainsburys/Waitrose/etc.... to hun some down. (Thanks!)

Now I'm worried about the Royales. No Princess in there, right? I mean, I know it's a hopeless quest, but it's sort of my whole raison d'etre.

When the kitchens see this one, they get out the extra coarse grater blade, and people go in feet first.

I'm told 'its for flavour' reasons.

I really like a good manchego with a nice bottle of chianti and 'other bits' (including Brother Rubbernukes finest cut ham*). Quite delicious.

What's wrong with plain ol' individually wrapped Kraft slices?

I mean, no chance of food poisoning since there is no actual food involved at any stage of the production, yet the taste is OK and it will survive the heat death of the universe.

Don't you have any cats in the Fridge\Freezer?

Sadly my brilliant oregano plant died.

I feel for you. I once had a really clever ficus, had some interesting thoughts on the grand unified theory, but then I forgot to water it for a bit. OK, a month. Don't judge.

I'm told Aisling is partial to one.

I'm (also) very partial to Roquefort. It's not for everyone I know, but it's one of my favourites. That and mouse-trap-cheddar (really).
