Way ahead of you there misscara and the hollandaise (of course home-made) is just the right consistency, glossy and delicious!

If the bacon and sausages are good quality I'd be nervous if I ran the Front Row. Hope it all goes well. (There shouldn't be an apostrophe in strawberries is my pedantic comment.)

Jonathan

Looks good. But no hash browns in the cooked breakfast?

Will you be doing a veggie version of the full english?

tosscat

There shouldn't be an apostrophe in Bloody Marys either. It's not pedantic to point out the error. If people don't know how to use them, then they should learn, not just put them in wherever they imagine - it's not complicated. The froth/foam thing is to make things taste more intense - is it not the same principle as slurping wine?

tosscat

On the bubble and squeak issue - I've never seen how this is a year round item, nor how it can be a regular on menus. It is an opportunistic dish to be made with left-over potatoes and sprouts, and you should never eat sprouts until they have seen a frost.

Kaz

Isn't bubble and squeak potatoes and cabbage? As well as Bloody Mary, Bucks Fizz clearly needs to be on the breakfast menu as well!

krappyrubsnif

A really good, properly turned-out Eggs Benedict is on my wish list too. I believe there have been issues over hot or cold and the correct muffins at The Other Place. Looks like Eggs Benedict Saturday at the Dairy then?

tosscat

It can be made with cabbage, but it is much nicer when made with sprouts

Reg

Away this weekend. All over it next.

Arkady

'Tosscat: angered by errors of composition in both grammar and breakfast'.

tosscat

Quite.

theolddairy

I've informed the chef that the pressure is on, he's quietly confident of his Benedict abilities... nervously looking forward to your reactions.

miss annie

I don't think that there is a prescribed recipe for bubble and squeak, it's a leftovers dish and anything goes. Although it's best when made with brassicas. Buck's Fizz should have an apostrophe non?

Ian

@missannie I do believe Buck's Fizz should have an apostrophe, as long as it refers to the drink and not the band name.

andy

@ian - yes, you have to make your mind up
