This one is easy! Shredded duck in pancakes! I can go through a whole meal just eating my body weight in shredded duck at a chinese buffet. It's always on my plate, and it just so tasty! I don't know what it is that makes it so addictive for me, the taste, the texture, the smell? Who knows. All I know is, is that it's damn good.

FAVE and WHY of:

Street foods

[dani_1991]

All time favourite is such a toughie, there are so many good street foods. I've always wanted to go to Asia and try their street food. I'm a sucker for the sweet street food though, so the likes of Belgium etc call to me.

I think all time favourite, though it may have been la romance that intervened and increased my enjoyment, but a hot nutella crepe en pari a la Chanps Élysées. C'etait tres tres bien. Et parce que c'etait chaud Et j'etait froid, c'etait plus bien!

Sorry about that, I seem to have turned French. It's the crepe memories; it does things to you...

Favourite food from Belgium?

[MelissaJayne]

HEHEHE CHOCOOOOO PLZPLZPLZ. My mum gets a lot of Taxis and has made friends with a cab driver, randomly he was going to belgium, bought back lots of chocolate and gave us loads. THEY DO IT RIGHT. And i'm yet to try a lot of their other food? (what do they do, actually? curious.)

Favourite scrambled egg addition?

[TotoMimo]

Paprika. I've found paprika gives a smoky, almost fiery egg taste in appearance and taste that goes ridiculously well... On a buttered English muffin. Boss!

Favourite scrambled egg addition?

The infamous Waffle Mel! Belgium waffles are to die for.

Favourite thing to eat on a train is a cereal bar. Sounds boring, but it's all all round good train choice. It doesn't make a mess, it doesn't smell or make noise causing people to glare, and it's a nice snack to keep you going till your destination. Plus, easy and convenient to carry with you. AND there's so much variety.

FAVOURITE CHOCOLATE DIPPED FOOD/SNACK?

[Fusion]

KP white chocolate dip. Consumers have convex preferences but with these I always run out of chocolate with a few breadsticks left such is there yummyness.

Favourite national chain for chicken wings?

[MelissaJayne]

I hate cheap chicken shops. So the only place I'd probably go for wings is KFC. Even then, I'd never choose wings, I'd get a ZINGER!!!
I probably should have left this question for someone who likes/appreciate wings.
But I'm a TSR whore.

Favourite flavour to have with fish?

[TotoMimo]

I was like PARSLEY! NO, WAIT! BASIL!

But then I remembered... DILL. Dill is one of those weird things that doesn't marry with a whole bunch, but it's like FISH AMPLIFIER!! OILY, WHITE, SHELL... DILL IS YER PAL!!

YOUR FAVE AND WHY OF SCOTTISH FOODS?

[dani_1991]

Scottish Pancakes. The cute tiny ones, especially the Lemon and Raisin flavoured ones. They make a nice light refreshing breakfast, and you can do so much with the plain ones. Have em with syrup, butter, honey, jam, plain. The choice is yours! And unlike the THICK American ones, it's not like a feast, it's a pleasant wake up. And there's not a meat in sight, maple syrup, bacon and pancakes? No. Just no.


FAVOURITE AND WHY OF STRAWBERRY FLAVOURED SWEETS

[TotoMimo]

CAMPINO.
Because strawb flavoured sweets never taste quiiiite right, but campinos TASTE LIKE STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM!! It's truly magic! Now if I didn't have to EU import em...


Your fave and why of BISCUITS WITH A JAM FILLING/TOPPING?

[MelissaJayne]

Marks and Spencers Strawberries and Cream sugar-free sweets Toto. They taste EXACTLY like Campino.
The butterscotch ones are like Werthers.

and Viennese whirls. They're the best Kipling product and the best jam filled biscuits. It isn't that awful jam thats in jammy dodgers. It's perfect with a softer biscuit, rather than a somewhat more snappy one. The proportions are right.

fave and why of ben and jerrys ice cream

[dani_1991]

Phish food frozen yoghurt; chocolate pieces, marshmallow swirls, chocolate ice cream and caramel sauce. What's not to love?! not a fan of the cookie dough one, it's just vanilla ice cream and cookie dough. Bit boring in my view.


FAVOURITE TESCO'S OWN ICE CREAM?

[TotoMimo]

TESCO CARAMELLO. Oh hell, this stuff is good; better than the Carte D'or equivalent, as you get thicker caramel and fudgier CARABITS that taste vaguely caramacky!!


Your fave and why of THE PUB SHARING PLATTER STARTER?

[dani_1991]

Toto that stuff is amazingggg. Good choice my favourite pub sharing platter is probably button mushrooms, if that's what you mean, as I love me some mushrooms and everyone can just pick one up and munch it. The onion rings are usually a good call to, or nachos because they're pretty filling and made right can be so tasty!

FAVOURITE TROPICAL FRUIT?

[TotoMimo]

Mango. Mango guys, stick, don't twist!!
Once you start venturing into Durian town you're doomed. Mango is literally as exotic as you go before it becomes "but it looked so pretty, why the taste of hell?

Your fave and why of dinners to eat with your parents?

[dani_1991]

I love eating Taco's with my parents. Purely because it breaks down any barriers, or need to be polite, its more like; ready steady GO GO GO. It's a free for all, and that's the best way to be. It makes dinner not only fun, but tasty too. And it suits everyone's tastes, because you can have chicken and/or beef, and you can add as much/little of each component as you wish.

FAVOURITE AND WHY OF DINNERS TO EAT ON A HOT SUMMERS DAY? (yes, they do exist, I've seen pictures)

[TotoMimo]

For me, it's simply, barbecued, blackened prawn kebabs with a beer. Light enough to not be stodgy in the tum, whilst being mobile enough to be a "social summer" food.

FAVE AND WHY OF CRISPS ADDED TO A SANDWICH COMBO?

[MelissaJayne]

Mash sandwich, ready salted walkers crisps, bit of ketchup.
TRY IT before you judge it.
It'd have to be a neutral crisp, like ready salted, I don't want too much flavour from them - just that crunchy texture.
A seasoning and texture, almost!

Fave and why of picnic items?

[TotoMimo]

Your suggestion is like KING OF NEUTRAL CARBAGE.INTRIGUE!! My fave of Picnic items is...

THE MIGHTY SCOTCH EGG.

It may be a caloriefest orb, but it is pure protein flavour. Sausagemeat is the reason we love stuffing, sausage rolls and all other meatloafy sexiness. Boiled egg, sausagemeat, sage, breadcrumbs ; throw in a beer and a stripper and we have a dirty fantasy evening here.


Your fave and why of FOOD SHAPED LIKE LOOPS/RINGS?

[Fusion]

Onion rings. I only first ate them about a year ago and was pleasantly surprised. I'd happily have them instead of fries in some cases because they have a bit more to offer. Disappointed mcdonalds stopped selling them.

Favourite national chain for potatoe wedges?
