Topic: What's for dinner, Josephine?

You chefs who continually post great looking dishes are what this site is about.  It may not all be BIR but at least you take the trouble to cook and post the results.  I'd be up for sampling anything posted in this thread  . It beats the hell out of hot air and back biting

I couldn't disagree more. Here's why: 1) Great looking dishes are not the same as great tasting dishes. You appear to rate form over substance 2) This thread has too little to do with BIR and is a major distraction. You lock threads where people may have opinions to express, but not this one which, in my opinion should have been closed down many months ago, so everyone can get back to the primary BIR focus of the site. 3) any viewpoints you don't agree with are considered to be hot air and back biting. As ScottyM pointed out, why delete posts which may express a different opinion but are not especially rude, let alone obscene? If you delete this post, it will prove my point. There are countless posts on this thread supporting the general concept. This post expresses a different point of view, and I trust I'm allowed to express it.

I second that George.  This post is tiresome to be honest, always great to look at good food if it's bir. Not interested in seeing a Sunday roast or steak and chips to be honest.

Couldn't have put it better myself.
You expect people to enjoy posting on a site with no social aspect to it.
Just rock up post a BIR pic and leave.
You expect people to feel like sharing there curry recipes and secrets in such a unsocial forum?

Chicken tikka kebabs with a serve of madras sauce for pouring over. Bombay aloo, pilau rice and a naan bread.

What a feast. Making me hungry just looking at it.

Chicken Ceylon tonight

Chicken Tikka Dhansak a la SoberRat tonight for me and my good lady wife who very highly commended the dish. As always, very nice, and the additional praise definitely speaks more for the recipe than my unremarkable culinary skills.





Sadly, the photos don't do the dish justice - it was much, much better than the photos suggest.
