The Marvellous 1901 5-0 Food Special

[Peter Grummit]

Eh ? Anywhere serving chips has been doing this for donkey's years, from the humble chippy upwards. I worked as a kitchen dogsbody in a pub when I was at school at weekends and we always pre-cooked chips to about 70% then finished them off at a very high heat for a few mins before serving (in the early 80s). TRIPLE cooked chips are premium.......thanks Heston.....[emoji3]

From The Daily Mash: (lold at the last line)

ONCE-COOKED chips are perfectly fine, it has been confirmed.

Researchers at the Institute for Studies decided to forego the now-standard ‘triple-cooking’ of chips and found that potatoes only need to be fried once to produce the desired result.

Professor Henry Brubaker said: “If you slice potatoes and fry them a single time, you get chips. Perfectly delicious chips.

“I have no idea why you’d do it twice more, unless you are some sort of imbecile.”

Professory Brubaker confirmed that even if you were deep-frying a horse you would only need to do it once.

He added: “Get oil, make hot, put thing in oil, take thing out, eat thing.

“If Heston Blumenthal told you to punch yourself in the ear would you do that too?”

It was salmon and dill fish cake, poached egg and chips. 14.50 to you Sir.

If you're going to moan about it don't order it...

To be fair [MENTION=409]Herr Tubthumper[/MENTION] has NOT moaned about it, has he?

This is just his little running joke, that he sees fit to continue ( )

FWIW, as a 1901 semi-regular, the £15 'bar-food' (as opposed to sit down formal ) offerings, such as this one, are actually pretty decent, and not at all excessively priced for the environment. Much better value than many other clubs / sporting venues.

Thank you.
