Bagels

[GoldWithFalmer]

It's a shame, it really does do great food, the staff are really nice folks it's just some of the patrons! Oh, except for one member of staff, a middle aged women who is clearly permanently on the edge of a nervous breakdown. Slightly quivery, never looks anyone in the eye, funny to watch and try and guess who's face she's gonna throw a scalding hot cup of ginger tea into first, mine or her own.
Better to head round the corner to Hectpr's Shed. Friendly, good food. They do a kind of supercharged Ploughmans with 3 different cheeses, good chunky salad, coleslaw, pickles and chutneys, decent bread, hmmm. All washed down with a big mug of tea. You cannot whack it.

your wasted on here you know,you should write a book(just not about Brexit),as for ploughmans pickles and cheeses mmmmmm yes please.

After 48 years on this planet I have just eaten my first ever Bagel, always called them poncy crap.

Fantastic it was, filled with crispy streaky bacon and scrambled eggs.

Anyone else eaten something for the first time and wondered why you never bothered before?

I'm not eating any of that foreign muck!

Ham and cheddar slaw from Bagel man. The best thing ever stuck between two buns.

To answer the question, I resisted haloumi for ages then for even longer because it has been claimed by vegetarian show wearing hedgemonkeys as their flagship cheese. I was in Artisan in Shoreham-by-Sea and tried some there. You know, I love it.
Artisan, despite the name is rather a good place for healthy, fresh food and it does a bloody good trad fry-up too. The problem with the place, esp on a weekday after morning school run, is that it is teeming with Mothers who refer to their bracket as a "sacred flower" with children in papooses. Their children run free. Loudly. But in summer you can pop out to the rather nice garden and get away from the dickheads.

Ham Chedderslaw again on Onion bagel with some mustard. To die for

Controversial I know, but after years and years of Marmite consumption I tried Vegemite and actually thought it was better, to the point where it has now replaced Marmite in my cupboard permanently.

It was a mates stag weekend and about 7 or 8 years ago, so in mitigation of my use of the word myriad, I was very pissed, and maybe there were more back then

Possibly walked past the same one several times in a stupour ?

As most on here will agree , I'm extremely open minded and willing to accept others point of view , but tried vegemite and was distinctively underwhelmed , not a patch on marmite.

I could agree,certain things i can eat their cheaper or alternative counterparts,i can even eat many supermarket own brands,but things like Marmite or for me KP Dry Roasted peanuts need to be just that,any alternatives lack taste and texture..

Are you not allowed to have both. I don't know why they get compared with each other so much. They are very different are they not? One is a thick, malty spread the other is a kind of thick vegetable jelly. They may look similar but the tastes are completely different. I think. I can take or leave either of them. Now, Bovril. That's another matter. Manna from heaven. Beef tea? Yes.

There's only ever been 2 I'm afraid
