USA 2

Cracker Barrel

I went for a southern breakfast now the 1st thing you will see is there is

 an old country store that sells retro chocolate bars to wooded rocking chairs

and just about any thing else you can think of.

I just tried the sky bar as I was sitting here waiting for my pictures to load up and

I wish I had some more now.

So I needed a big breakfast that day and I got more than I bargained for.....

I had the the Cracker Barrel Country Boy Breakfast  Pork Chops

or Steak grilled to order, Three Eggs cooked to order served with Fried Apples,

 Hashbrown Casserole, Grits, Sawmill Gravy and Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits

along with real Butter and the best Preserves, Jam n' Apple Butter available.

Steak grilled

 Sawmill Gravy and Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits

Pork Chops

Apple Butter is a must try I and not a big fan of jam and preservetives but I loved

this it just like butter flavoured with apple.

Sawmill Gravy and Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits now the biscuits are what we

would know as scones without the fruit the sawmill gravy is not like the ahhhh

bisto it is taking the fat or dripping from the meat and mixing it with a roux

and thats what it is so if your someone who like dripping on toast then

you will like this.

Grits now what are grits well its like polenta or porridge there ok I

like them when I mix the apple butter in to it.

Grandpa's Country Fried Breakfast Two Eggs cooked to order with Grits, Sawmill Gravy and Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits along with real Butter and the best Preserves, Jam n' Apple Butter available. Served with your choice of Fried Apples or Hashbrown Casserole and Chicken Fried Chicken or Country Fried Steak.

and sweet potato pancakes on the side for us to try and I got to say there awsome

U.S.A

Pancake and bacon





Tex breakfast warp



Conrbeef hash egg and potatoe












In the Tex warp was egg, fried potatoe, chorizo and chicken with tomato salsa and I
got to say wow thats a breakfast. The conrbeef hash was out of this world if you
had too much to drink the night befor I think it as they say over there
winner winner chicken dinner or as we say here it's lubly jubly.
Now the pancake and bacon I've got to sayI wanted to try this and no
that is not a ball of ice cream but butter as I thought
when it came out but I've got to say it works the sweet and salt the crispy bacon
and fluffy pancakes you can't help but eat it all.

I got more to put up but will in my own time.

Healthy avocado drink

Here is a easy and healthy drink to make

all you need is

2 Avocado

1pt milk

5 tps honey

just put all in to a liquidizer and mix

and if you want it to be more sweeter

just put more honey and if not so sweet less

honey and in the summer time try freezing

the milk for a healthy milkshake.

Gay Hussar in soho

This week I wanted to try some Hungarian food so I ask my Hungarian friend
where is good to go in London and he said try the Gay Hussar as it has got a
good review  even though he has never been there so off I went.

for starter
Gulyásleves - Beef Goulash Soup

Hortobagyi Husos Palacsinta - Chicken Pancake

for mains

Özpörkölt - Venison Goulash with Tarhonya and Red Cabbage

Borjúpörkölt Galuskával - Veal Goulash with Galuska

Well the food was ok but not what I was expecting when i think of Hungarian food

it's great peasant food with big cuts of rustic bread not for it to try and be posh

nosh. It is a great restruant but my opinion is it's the king's pyjamas story

as in people want to eat there as a lot of mp's eat there.

So in all it is a good restruant but not what I am looking for.

Sushi class

Today I was on a sushi class which was suge (awesome)

it was a western version but I will give a version I know.

For the sushi rice you will need

1 1/2 cups sushi rice

1 2/3 cups water

4-inch konbu kelp http://japanesefood.about.com/od/soup/r/konbudashi.htm

1/5 cup rich wine vinegar

2 Tbsps sugar

1/2 Tsp salt

• Soak the konbu kelp in the water for 1 hour  to make the stock
• Wash the rice 2 times and soak for 30 mins and rinse off in a sieve till the water is clear
• Put the rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small pot and heat till dissolved then put to one side
• Place the rice and stock in a rice cooker or pot with a lid on a low heat DO NOT STIR till cooked
• When the rice is cooked put to one side for 10 mins
• Sprinkle the vinegar dressing over the rice and mix with a wooden spoon
• when cool use to make your sushi

Place a nori (seaweed sheet) on bam-boo mat put the rice lightly on the nori sheet leaving 3/4

at the top uncovered and making a dip all the way along the center to place your ingredients

put what you like in to it and if you want put some mayonaise also some one said they did

one with pesto sun dry tomto and artichoke realy nice now pick up the bottom of the 

mat and roll to shape pulley it back to you when done cut the ends off and cut in to sixths 

with a knife with water . 

Butcher shops

I like this butcher the guys who work here do
 know there stuff and can get you just about
 any meat  you want. The shop inside look like
 the one my mum used to use when I was a kid
 and its got a big wood chopping block in the
middle that give it that old fashion look about it.

When you go inside you get a smell of mouth
watering chicken that is ready to eat and comes

in some scrumy flavours.

I have tried alot of the meat from here and
never be disappointed and their veal is one of the
best in London.

72 Watling Street, London - Butchers near Mansion House

The next butcher is the barbecoa which is Jamie Oliver

and Adam Perry Lang a bit like marmite you either

love Jamie or hate him but this butcher is fabulous.

When you walk in you get the smell of hung meat

which you don't get in a lot of butcher these days

and that nice dark red colour on the meat. you can

see all the meat hanging in the back of the shop

showing you that it is a traditional butcher.

Woo Jung (Korean restaurant)

I love this korean restaurant its small and quirky seats about 30 to 40 I would say. The

food is simple with great combination of flavours. It's about £25 to £30 if there are two of

you eating there. the waiters are friendly and helpful.

When you sit down you get assortment of pickles and spicey jelly



Dubu kimchi bokeum                                                         Yukwhe Dolsos

(Fried kimchi with bean curd)                                         (Raw beef  raw yolk
                                                                                        vgetables in a hot stone pot)

Gimchi jeongongol

(pork, tofu noodle and kimchi casserle)

The Yukwhe dolsos come in a hot stone pot so

 the sides of the rice become crispy you pour

some spicey sauce in to it and mix it up.

With the Gimchi jeongol you get a gas ring put on your table

with a pot of raw ingredients in it and you see it cooked as you wait

They do a special menu for after 10pm which is Korean alcohol and hot nibbles

I will go back a try this.

you can find them at Woo Jung Restaurant. 59 St Giles High Street (off Charing Cross Road), London, WC2H 8LH
