What is artisan bread and pastry....

What makes me giggle is the term 'hand raised pork pies' ... do they nurture them from being itsy-bitsy baby ones until they're fully grown? :D
 
I often pass Fred and Gingers cafe in Kings Langley high street. Kings Langley is nice but I always thought that Fred and Gingers was a cafe. Apparently not, just looking at the web site I would think that this is the place that I could get an artisan sandwich. The reason I was looking was my lovely lady who suggested having breakfast there on Sunday.
See what they come up with for an egg and bacon sandwich.;):)

£3.85 for a bacon egg roll ..:eek:

In Makro they sell an bacon roll for 79p with free coffee (from a vending machine ) ... a big soft bap with the bacon bulging out.. (I counted 4 slices on my roll)

so brecky for two comes to £1.58 ... that's what I call great value for money.. a Jock's treat :LOL:

Granted, I spent over £100 at the till :confused:

You cant take it with you jim.:) Could I dare make a recommendation for you. Take yourself to Munchies in Aldeburgh high street and treat yourself to an egg and bacon or sausage Suffolk Bap followed by a slice of toast with their munchies jam. I was their a couple of weeks ago:cool: and as always it was a real treat. We then returned after lunch for a small fish and chips in a bag to eat while sitting on the sea wall fighting the seagulls off lubbly jubbly. No idea how much but worth every penny.......go on spoil yourself;)
 
The latter reminds me of Harry Enfield :D

That one cracks me up every time - those 'I Saw you Coming' sketches are so close to the truth, believe me. To quote another of them "Vintage is old and horrible, retro is new and horrible but made to look old and horrible, but the bottom line is I get the whole lot from a car boot sale and sell it to you for a fortune."

Quite a few aires are signposted as artisanale - does that mean they've been made by hand with fresh traditional recipe tarmac grown locally?

That reminds me of one of those TV decorating shows of the 1990s. One of the female presenters said something along the lines of "Of course I was the first to dare to have apple green and post box red together X years ago" (X wasn't very many). Jill and I looked at each other and laughed. We had used left over apple green and post box red paint together in part of our first house 20 odd years earlier when that designer was about 5 years old - because we couldn't afford to waste the paint :LOL: It actually worked though :LOL:

The weird thing about that is they deliberately create wear and tear patterns that wouldn't happen to the item in normal use, ie "Don't forget to sand the edges of the chest of drawers when you close your sock drawer darling".
