My gripe is not so much about the cooking process it's about the presentation of it. For instance, last night on Hell's Kitchen, they put the fish on the plate (fair enough if it needs a little poke with your fingers to get it off the palate knife) but then spent five minutes rearranging mushrooms on it.

Ah but that wasn't so much food for eating purposes as a work of art for admiring! :D

I once went to an Indian restaurant in Accrington.

I went to the Loo's, which are up some stairs and accidentally walked into the staff loo's!! :eek: I have never seen such FILTH in all my life!! and the thought of them using the Loo then not washing their hands properly has put me off that place for ever!!

It certainly seems that the posher the chef the more likely they are to fiddle with the food! :)

Re: Playing with your food
 

Its not the touching of the food that bothers me on Hells kitchen, its the amount of times they taste it then put the same spoon back in the pan.

Can't beat fish and chips for that -fried at extremely high temps and served immediately untouched by human hand until you eat them yourself -with your fingers naturally! I think vinegar is anti-bacterial too....

Re: Playing with your food
 

Good chip shops are fewer nowadays - been taken over as either curry places , chinese takeaways or pizzarias (never had a decent pizza in UK yet - make my own :D)

Re: Playing with your food
 

What a coincidence i'm just off to finish preparing my home-made pizzas - the wolves are howling down below!
There was a great chippy in Great Harwood outside Netherton House on Clayton Street where my Grandma and Grandad used to live....wonder if it's still going? You had to queue outside the shop!

I'm sickened by this nonsense. Can anyone cook in Accy anymore? - obviously not judging by this old crap.

Re: Playing with your food
 

I can ! Me and Kelsey have just had home made chilli con carne with rice , tortillas and sour cream dip. ( Very nice it was too !):)

Re: Playing with your food
 

if you cook it your self you will know its right and no one else can be blamed for it.

Re: Playing with your food
 

Yes. Hyndburn Borough Council do a lovely 'cooked the books', artfully dizzled with a delicate, idiot's jus.
