The Marvellous 1901 Food Thread: Fulham Formal Dining Special

[Herr Tubthumper]

Herr Tubthumper - after the misery of yesterday's result your thread has cheered me up no end. The comments regarding your gastronomic extravaganza have been hilarious. Keep them rolling in!

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Now everyone has seen the food.....what do you reckon on the price? Maybe give two prices: what you think it's worth and what it actually cost.

 

[El Presidente]

I hate to think how much they charged you for the bottle of champers.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Worth a tenner. Cost £60?

 

[Eeyore]

I'd pay £25, they ask £45 ?

When I say I'd pay, I mean if I was dating a potential suitor who needed impressing.

But then, I guess I wouldn't go to an Albion match on the first outing.

Spot on Mr Mahone. An after dinner cigar for you!

 

[Max Paper]

£30 seems reasonable for a 3 course lunch, bet they charged double that though, £60?

 

[Mr Putdown]

Spot on Mr Mahone. An after dinner cigar for you!

Sixty quid for that??

 

[Eeyore]

Spot on Mr Mahone. An after dinner cigar for you!

That'll be another £10, Sir.

£60 for three courses and one pint?

How can you justify paying that / why did you? About as baffling as hypia beating the 100s of other candidates for this job

So that ChickenChips place has closed? Wonderful news! Thanks.

 

[Vegas Seagull]

Looks good, I've just booked up

 

[The Birdman]

Washed down with an over priced Harvey's at least it in glass

 

[Man of Harveys]

These threads are PHENOMENAL. A coulis-drizzled, pan-fried, sun-ripened well done to all involved.

I managed to sneak a few shots of the 1901 diners eating their special menu. Can you spot any NSCers?

 

[Questions]

You're good at this. Yes, confit of Gressingham Duck.

I knew The Gressingham Ducks. Splendid people..... From near Henley if I remember correctly.

You certainly wouldn't get a second date that's for sure.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I'm off out now. Thanks everyone and have a good day.

 

[Questions]

Did you actually pay out for all that HT or did someone send you the pics.

I had a Bratwurst with French stick outside Churchill Square for 4 quid and it was gorgeous followed by 3 pints of Craft Pale at 2.80 a pint and then a Saison for pudding.

Total cost for dining out £ 16.00
