Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Geo]

sorted . . . . bastard!

. . . . sorry Simon . . .

[Geo]

so the conversation went

'i thought you were making biryani?'
'nope'
'oh!'

so i've chucked in a load of basmati 

[Giles]

Get the girl some specs….

[Seul]

Or don't…

[Geo]

• sigh

[Seul]

If you saw that coming, means she's doing a good job…

[Geo]

not what i had in mind but it tastes decent enough . . .

MY PORTION

and since i'm not the biggest fan of dry curries

MY OTHER PORTION

[rocket]

nice IH chef!

[Madame Buttonfly]

Geo, that food (today and yesterday) looks AMAZING, loving this week's foodfest, what's happening tomorrow?

[Giles]

What she didn't say is that we got so hungry reading tonight's recipe, we high tailed it to our fave Indian restaurant.  I ate

Shutkhora Dhaniya Gosht

She didn't…....

[Geo]

guys - i wish i'd just went to the local indian restaurant . . . hate compromising what i'm doing

shutkora is citrus-y right? was it good?

anyway - think i'll be having a duck fest tomorrow . . . confit legs (already in prep - you need to do at least a day in advance) and rillettes, maybe just have that with some toast and some salad . . . and another bottle of wine or two

[Giles]

Hot spicy lamb dish cooked with Bengali citrus fruits, garlic, green chillli and coriander.

When you come doen here Geo we'll take you there (Beats has been a couple of times), it is a little Bengali restaurant that opened 35 years ago.  The owner died 6 months after opening it and Sonny, his son (who was 16 at the time), has been running it ever since.

[Geo]

deal - sounds fantastic!

[Giles]

Sonny actually is a lesson in customer service.  He has a little black book in which he notes salient facts about every customer that visits.  the next time they come, he has a quick flick through the book and comes over and starts off the conversation where you left off the last time.  Simple but stunningly impressive….........

[Geo]

now that really is impressive . . . 

[rocket]

that sounds extremely cool… love this kind of dedication

[Chris]

@Giles:

Usually one each side of a cows face - at least in Europe….................

And just when I thought the Belgian and the mad Scotsman were the only two that were getting frisky, in jumps the British jokester.

[Geo]

now steady on . . . you were the one asking the dumb question . . . 

[Chris]

Oh, there it goes again.  They're ganging up on me now.

Fine.  Let me rephrase the original statement: where to purchase calf cheeks.  Is everyone satisfied now? Damn.

Wankers.

[Geo]

ohhh! you want to BUY calf cheeks? well why didn't you say so?
