Juicy steaks


Two fillet steaks driven down from Scotland to Archer’s on Queen’s Road, Fried potatoes from Ron Combo’s garden in Italy and mushrooms from Peasgood’s, fried in butter with double cream, as a sauce. Washed down with a decent Cote de Rhone. May find room in about half an hour for a sliver of Ossau-Iratu stinky French cheese. Fantastic! Sorry for the break. Been busy!

I had Bury Black Pudding for my breakfast yesterday.

surely a porterhouse or rib-eye cut - delicious looking indeed. Driven from scotland as in on the hoof ? or in the back of a van ? What a great starter any how, and eating alone I see, what did you have for a main course ?

It was indeed excellent. Tender, yet still tasty. Not always the case with fillet's, a muscle that does so little. It came down from the frozen north in a lorry Diplo, with 'Scottish Beef' written large on the side. Proud race the Scots. Cornflakes this morning!
