Re: Lunchtime Choices
Some spring onion could bring the Stilton on nicely, those pickled bastards tend to overpower things somewhat.

Thoughtful and helpful suggestions, so thank you. Hopefully I'll be able to share my ploughman's journey.

Opinions can vary, tradition as well. I like cheddar, and I like Stilton, but damn, I have to use up the brie.

On a similar vein regarding traditions & opinions, I'd like to know which philistine was responsible for the introduction of brioche buns to the savoury world. It's now commonplace to see pubs advertising burgers served on a brioche bun as though it's something to be proud of. Whatever next... a hot dog served in between 2 slices of Battenburg?

I only knew about stuffed brioche until a few years ago, from reading old New Yorker magazines and seeing ads for upscale restaurants with pictures of their brioche.

That reminds me of a burger stand I was taken to by a Norwegian trainee pilot from Shoreham, located in a hide-away area near Brighton, back in the 70's - you could order your burger however you wanted it - I always ordered my burgers rare or medium rare.. they were superb. That was the first time I had 1000 island dressing on a burger.. messy but quite delightful

Pumpernickel and butter and Cambozola and smoked salmon (and I had some dry salami earlier), also wine. Kiss me, you fool.
This covers about 3 of the major food groups, I reckon.

Yum that sounds sooo good. One of my favorite sandwich bars, who got to know my tastes once tried me with a corned beef, tomato, anchovy and mustard...I think that you might like it too...

Yesterday's hoisin glazed pork does a curtain call on a kaiser with sriracha mayo.
