Re: Comfort Foods?
Was thinking that a comfort meal would involve many of the things from my Dad's garden, fresh corn on the cob-butter and sugar variety please, romano beans cooked with new potatos, swiss chard, one of the rare times I;d be happy with all veg.

Re: Comfort Foods?
Yeah, thats good....one of my favorites, but can't handle it too often!
Have you been to the Angus Grill, just a little bit further along Westheimer? Same style, but lower key - not quite as good, but they do a lunch session for about 12bucks, which is awesome value. Used to meet the other half there occasionally when she worked in the Galleria.

Forgot to mention, if you to Central Market, they do British Bangers, by custom order, 24 hr turn around. I haven't tried other HEBs for them, just Central Market downtown.

I don't know what it is about US sausages, but they just don't taste right to me, and what's all this about boiling them instead of frying?! Pfft!
I've found a decent compromise in Johnsonville Stadium Brats. Quite a tasty pork sausage that makes an awesome hotdog.
Now if only I could find some Galtee...

Oh and a banana sandwich, mashed bananas on toast, or just plain toast

You'd get on with my wife....her idea of comfort food is a bowl of edamame or stewed soybeans and/or black beans.....

Hubby's comfort food is fish, chips and mushy peas. Mine is grilled cheese and crumpets/pikelets, cheese or beans on toast.

Re: Comfort Foods?
My new comfort food is the taco soup that my wife makes for me from an old family recipe, UK was stew and dumplings, I have introduced Yorkshire Puddings to my new family and they all love them, home made to my mums recipe, throw the flour in a bowl, guess the egg and milk/water mix, get the oil smoking and away you go......
