You guys are pussies. But I have to admit that you feel much fuller after a big breakfast than a big roast. I usually always go for a large pork roast, but it seems portions have gotten smaller. There's absolutely no difference in serving size between the small and big roast, the exception being a few slices of meat and a larger crackling. I counted 3 potatoes and 3 cauliflowers on my roast this weekend. Brought it up with the girls by pointing to some small roasts nearby which looked identical to mine (minus maybe 1-2 slices of meat less and a smaller crackling), but they just replied like robots: "oh no! Yours much bigger!". The plate is bigger, but are the portions really much bigger? I feel as if they're smaller than usual, or maybe the cook just went cheap on mine. I understand meat is what costs extra, but when I get a big roast, I expect more of everything: greens (which cost peanuts), potatoes (same deal), cauliflower etc. Food was as good as usual, just seemed like the amount of sides were identical as a small roast. Maybe that's actually how they're done and I've simply never noticed. I don't mind the extra meat, but I'd be willing to only get one extra slice of meat in exchange for a heartier serving of sides. Maybe that's just me...
Now back to breakfasts for a sidenote: do pommies actually eat fried bread?! That stuff is positively disgusting (and I suspect is what makes everyone walk slowly after their breakfast). The first two bites I had were great. "Damnnnnn, that's good" I thought to myself. But after finishing a full slice of the stuff, my body quickly told me that eating deepfried bread isn't on its list of "healthy fuels". So fucking greasy... Felt queasy and seemed like all my skin's pores were being clogged up by it. It's like eating french toast, but soaked in vegetable oil... What English cook thought that up?! Weirdest culinary invention ever along with the Scot's fried Mars bars. I now obviously ask for just plain toast with my breakfasts. But is fried bread actually common in households and breakfast menus in the UK?

For the large roast you get extra potatoes, a large Yorkshire pudding and extra meat. It's done by weight and sometimes the meat slices are more slab than slice.
Just yesterday an Englishman said he really preferred fried bread to toast. You're welcome to have either or both.

I do believe that Vlad can recommend a good lawyer.rl66 wrote:I'd consult your lawyer Scobienz.

So what is going on with those meal cards? How is it going for everyone? Anybody managed to fill one out?
Ironically I am the owner of this card and was present while Scobienz was denied for the 4th time for a meal ticket and I admit to laughing heartily at his misfortune. However my laughter was cut short when this card (pictured above) was handed back to me and told "cannot". The cashier told me to remember my meal and they will add it to a new card when I come back, knowing this was unlikely to end in my favour I insisted on getting a new card instead, this was followed by a chortle from Scobienz "You better f**king not get one". A short while later our favourite smiley waitress arrived with two fresh meal tickets, one for me and one for another friend of ours leaving Scobienz gasping for air, I swear a vein was going to pop in his neck. The waitress was definitely bemused at the six crazy barang laughing their bollocks off.dv8inpp wrote:

Good to know. I do think I had a bit more meat than usual, but only three small potatoes. I'm guessing they quickly filled the plate (with extra meat), weighed it and out it went. Can't really complain as the lamb tasted great (and is a fairly rare treat here). I also noticed that the yorkshire pudding is always smaller in the small roasts. If I recall, it was the main reason I only had the small roast once.dv8inpp wrote:For the large roast you get extra potatoes, a large Yorkshire pudding and extra meat.

And yeah, the only time I had the breakfast, I had it "standard" (half fried bread, half toast). It was nice to try fried bread and definitely good to have it as an option.
