Wow! Is this the one that Seatallen and Ratatouille used to enter?

[Pepper Pig Profile]

I think it is! Wow, well done girl.

Wow! Is this the one that Seatallen and latterly, Ratatouille used to enter?

Yes it is. Did you enter this year Sea?

I’m surprised how many of those Oxford Circus eateries were there in my West End days 40 years ago
I was an I Camisa girl, or Randall & Aubin which in those days was not a fish restaurant but a butcher with a deli counter in the annexe

I used to eat at what is now MW Buffet, a well reviewed all you can eat Chinese buffet at 58 Shaftesbury Avenue with a beautifully plain frontage, like French railway brasserie, first place I had the now ubiquitous soup noodles with the ladies from the sweat shops on Lisle Street. It was table service then of course.

Think they are a bit mean to Scandi Kitchen, forget meatballs, have the selection of open sandwiches :

nice story too

[Pepper Pig Profile]

It is but I’m still trying to work out what technical leggings are!

[Earthmaiden Profile]

They have pockets anyway!

I like the use of the yogurt pot for measuring.

[Stokey Sue Profile]

If there’s one garment I don’t require pockets on, it’s leggings, it’s the potential for for lumpiness

I assumed that technical leggings were those things with oddly placed strips of different fabrics and mesh to support or cool your muscles?

Nice one again, KKA.

I've had a similar recipe in my little red recipe book since the 1990s, I think I got it from another Mum at the playgroup we used to go to though it's without the chocolate chips. It's very good made using a lemon or mandarin yoghurt, my favourite though is with a hazelnut yoghurt and a handful of chopped nuts. I've always baked them in a 2lb loaf tin then iced with little glace icing.

Felicity makes churros.

I've given up trying to keep brown sugar usable! Even decanting it into a screw top jar doesn't seem to top it from going hard.

Churros are the only doughnuts I like, but I won’t bother, best eaten from a paper cone bought from a stall I think
