I thought he was really ambitious, and some of the dishes worked extremely well, although some didn't. I really like the no-option menu, because they can concentrate on the dishes more intently. What worked for you?

Why you going on about your favourite album from last year? PS enjoy Isaacs

They are. And you're crediting me too much by claiming they turn out spherical. Despite the egg, the weight means that they 'find' less-spherical, and more-rectangular, parts and settle there. NSC wine tasting in six months?

I often (nearly deep, but it's also part-shallow) fry them and then whack them in the oven/bake for a few further minutes. Archers sausages, extra pepper, lots of sage, bit of extra thyme Eggs cooked for c6 mins, i.e. just set Encase eggs in mixture Develop production line of seasoned flour...

Is this at the stalwart branch or the new one in Hove? I adore Planet India, but have two minor criticisms: there has been no variation or additions to the menu since I've been going, not even a rotating special; and second, it can all be a bit heavy, and makes you pine for the freshness that...

they may be the best purveyor, but my scotch eggs might just be the best made in Brighton: there's nothing quite like a homemade scotch egg; they're good to do for an event/party/etc

An immaculate conception?

That sounded tempting to me, at the very least.

Thanks for that. I'll too try to give them a whirl. I think the noodle/ramen place I've been to is Tonkotsu, so I've now got Sasuke and Lanzhou to try and, hopefully, I might work out the difference between miso and tonkotsu. RE New Era: ask for the Chinese menu

I've been to that ramen place on Greek(?) Street -- the one with the seemingly permanent queue outside -- on several occasions. Brilliant, quick, tasty, reasonable food. I suspect it's the one you're referring to but, if it's not, do tell, as you must with the cheap-as-chips Chinese ... ... On...

You're not going to try and flog champagne and hot dogs again are you?

There ought to be a contagion of such events

What a genius Fergus is. A bringer of sheer joy. Did you drink craft beer with it. Or did you have some carefully-selected French wine from a less fashionable region? Great pic too: hic, belch, etc. Last time I went there, we arrived at midday. Ate c5 courses. Drank c2 bottles per head. Headed...

Shall we introduce a separate burger thread for 2017?

St John is very good. You've probably heard about the bone marrow starter thing. Also, the madeleines are well worth a go. As you've probably gathered, I'm a fan of BB too.

Went to Fourth & Church last night with a long-standing Albion fan, and our partners. We arranged some hot dishes to go with their standard (modern English) tapas fare. Had a fine time. It really is one of my favourites in the city for the following reasons: extremely well-executed tapas style...

Not for me all the same. I'm keen to convert you, but don't want to push the proselytisation process too far.

The older I get, the better Stilton gets. Just had some. In case you haven't guessed, I'm a food snob: only Colston Bassett, or the (impure) Stichelton makes it past the threshold.

Never had one of those: fancy you. Always go for a Classic. Had one last week. It's oh so good.

Think I might pop in for a crafty one for lunch tomorrow. I always order a classic. It always does the job. They never last long -- quickly despatched.
