All Day Breakfast.......


Mmmm Nice....

2 slices of toast, 2 eggs, 2 hash bowns, 2 sunny side up eggs.......£2.49.
Maybe could put this on the new menu......

Was going to read the story about the man who invented sellotape.......couldn't find the beginning though.


Better go 'cos the kids been eating their dinner for an hour now......

Adios


Keh-mon Achaan Noya Bandu?


Celebrations!!!

A warm welcome, balo aso nee & celebrations to our new follower.........
Welcome and enjoy and feel free to comment.
Don't y'all be shy
Don't just Think It....
Feel It....
Say It....
Express It.....




I usually celebrate with some food so here was my happy food. Bought it just before noon and the batter on the Chicken Fillet Burger was still fresh and crispy. You guys are so lucky that I remembered to take a picture of it. It usually doesn't last that long....although it took me ages to eat it. The bite on the picture was the biggest I could do. I split my lips doing so.



Not Quite a Karahi King Burger....

LBN or WN as you know him went shopping over the weekend. Something important......anyway all he could dribble about was a Karahi King Burger. A triple stack with salad and cheese and mayo and just loveliness. Just loveliness.......

Anyway after a year the new menu is nearing completion although the brief may change again. In fact it has.......so hang in there and we'll get it sorted by next year.
Having said that I keep coming up with new dishes......for example Tikka Mixed Grill. A luscious mix of Chicken Tikka, Haryali Chicken, Malai Chicken Tikka, Lamb Tikka and a new Spicy Tikka which is chicken tikka with an extra spicy marinade. All cooked fresh to order so maximum freshnesss and served with a fine cut salad with dhaniya, green chillis and drizzled in mustard oil. A Bengal salad. Also a side dish of spinach and potaoes......I'm hungry.

Anyway our new stuffed pepper style should be popular. Half roasted sweet red pepper stuffed with fresh bhuna lamb mince, vegetables or spicey mash. The mash is lovely and smooth with a red chilli flake kick.

As usual I'm falling asleep...

Outta Here........

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.......


Salmon Tikka

Went shopping the other day. There was a sale on at Debenhams. Upto 25% off. That's 25% off their allegedly already inflated prices which they kept high for the legal 2 weeks of the year so they can legally claim an authentic 25% off sale. So it's really not 25% off our usual prices but 25% of our 2 week high prices. I went in 'bout 3 weeks ago looking at a pair of jeans. 501s I think. £65 they were. Usually they are £50-55. Surpise surprise they were in the sale......

Tuesday was a busy night. No police or big bills like monday so it felt a lot busier. Had a couple of Spaniards come in. Jeans and body piercing complete. They seemed pleasant enough. Until some regular customers said they felt sick due to the smell coming from them. They dayn't leave a tip either.


Le Hand of a cheating Henry......

But he didn't do it delibrately though. Well that's alright then.....shame on you.

Tired now.
Need to catch up on sleep.

For once it's more windy outside than inside.....

All I Got Was A Kebab.....


Spiced Onions


Been trying for years to make spiced onions........Oh my life I may have cracked it. MC with TK then some M & a little C with S to finish. Onions chopped finely of course.

Last night we made Spiced Tilapia Fillets and Bengali Style Maas using Tilapia fillets. The fish is not the best but we decided on the sauce. Nice....

Was busy for a monday night.
>A policeman came in all dressed up.
>The waiting takeaway customers looked at us, looked at them and then looked at us again.
>I put my hands up while WA ran to the back and hid.
>He looked at me.
>I looked at him.
>He looked for a takeaway menu.
>We didn't have any (surprise surprise!)
>He asked what time we closed.
>I said 12 midnight.
>"Can I book a table for 5 at 10.30?" he asked.
>Releasing my clenched buttocks I said "Look forward to seeing you later."
>He left.
>The takeaway customers said "can we pay now?"

Half ten came and went......at 10 to 11 they came in. They ate. They enjoyed. They paid and then left a shulo phon tip from a shite phon bill! WA said fags on me then....I said of course. Once you lose a stone in weight and put some deodorant on. He laughed. I laughed. We left at 10 past 12. He still smelled.......

Had some weirdo customers in on saturday. They were upset their Manchurian Chicken was milder than a Koorma. Impossible. He says he goes to another restaurant and their JalFereze was medium. Curry strentgh is relative. My medium curry could be your madras curry. They finished it all off though.......bandor
Later that night on the same table we had a lady who loved the sound of her own voice. Asta fagol. "I should be dead" she kept saying. " I nearly died" she moaned. All she did was fall down a couple of steps.
That table is now officially the fagol sagol table.




Half Eaten Seekh Kebab Roll

They all went shopping on saturday. Something about a Christmas Day.........anyway I took the kids to football then had fish and chips on the way back. The owner of the chippy is really friendly and always uses fresh tongs for me when I go. He also fries his oink products separately from his fish and chips. Anyway family went shopping and I got a kebab back. Sorted. Very nice.


Peace Out

The plural of Fish is.....Fish.

Can You See the Fish or Fishes?

Well I changed the water in the tank and you can see Abdullah swimming quite happily on the right. He hasn't gone to his comfort place and is most definitley happier.

Can you see me in the tank? And the other little Zebra Danios (or mujahadeen) on the left? There's one doing a runner along the top of the tank as well....



My Dinner.......

It was a 'orible night weatherwise and it was thus quiet at work. Quite a few familiar faces.
WA was in a mood. He only had 2 sticks tonight and was upset over something. When he like that he's an absolute pain. His head has gone and he bear-disha mood all night. Numpty.

Meanwhile WS survived his birthday and says he has turned over a new leaf. Will wait and see......


Made myslef a keera mint murghee. It was nice and spicy with green chilli and chilli flakes.


Looks like no football for the wee man 2mrw morning. I can hear the rain outside. And the wind. So might get a lie in. Until the Beasts invade our room under 'can I go to the toilet?' pretence.....

They showing the England v Brazil friendly on ITV later. As it's a friendly Jimmy, Ash and Warney should get a kick. Although depends what mood the Samba boys are in.......looking forward to it. BTW can you imagine Wayne 'gunda gorilla' Rooney as potential Captain if Terry ain't fit. Gone are days when being captain for your country means being articulate, a motivator and have a certain dignified manner & self respect. Not grunt when you open your mouth and run about like a headless bull every time you get challenged hard. My life.

Eee deshor standard nai nee, asta noshta oi sar ghee. Ash-o-lay, noshta oi-a har-sey......

Safe

Can You Believe This.....?

Short post before I go to work. Had to mention the following as it's important.
Taliban=Junkies. USA=Hypocrites.
Okay we all know that war is never about the headlines. Hidden agendas are the name of the game.
Read this.......

......things are never what they seem.



Had nachos for lunch with hummus, olive oil pitta bread and a salsa. Not quite curry but went down well.

Off to work in a bit. Weather 'orrible so let's see what happens.....will let you know as usual and IA will remember to take some food pictures that's if I don't eat it.......

Wicked


Still cool........


These Are Not Normal Baked Potatoes.......


Thursdays normally my day off but had to go into work 'cos WS is off celebrating his birthday...

Had a good lunch......homemade nachos with salsa and lovely melted cheese followed by baked tatties with tuna mayo sweetcorn filling. I felt a bit like an aloo after as well.

Kids' parents evening earlier. Let it be known that they have made us proud. Beast Z is doing exceptionally well and is getting additional teaching for her numeracy and is in the top stream for most other subjects if not all. Beast Y is doing just as well and his reading & writing is progressing very well. MA they are developing well and will cost me in rewards this week.....

Work was quiet. It was raining very heavily and we had a couple of leaks in the restaurant. Made myself a Keera ki Murghee. Made it the other day but tried it with some tomato puree to give colour and a slightly sour taste. The other nights' was better.....

I think one of my goldfish is getting old. It swims about then always goes back to the same place behind the artificial plant and next to the Greco/Roman columns(!) and just kisses one of the 'leaves.' It's had a good run and has been with us a couple of years. Although looking at it now it seems to be doing ok....

Tired now.......going to amend the menu yet again and then get some sleep.
