079 - The Worst Egg Sandwich Ever: Breakfast in Brighton

Kitchen Nightmare

Behold today's egg-poaching failure:

POACHED EGG FAIL!

:(
Who screws up poaching an egg?
There is surely little to no skill involved in poaching an egg.
1)Boiling water.
2)Stir water into a whirlpool.
3)Crack egg into whirlpool.
4)Leave egg to cook.

That's IT.

There are several mistakes that may have led to this culinary disaster: when I tried to stir up the whirlpool using a knife... and when I poked at the egg with a spatula before it was ready.

I shall live to poach another day and.. I will become a better cook in the New Year.

My First 'Snog'

Last week, I headed to the Big Smoke for an after-work rendezvous. Trying to impress my friend with my ability to hunt down lesser-known, original and fun places for us to go to as I was, I hoped that 'Snog', in the heart of London's Soho, would make for the perfect hang out spot.

'Snog' is a hip, clean, modern eatery, serving up delicious Frozen Yogurt. This sweet treat is low in fat, low in calories and high in taste. It is sweetened with Agave Nectar (!) and there are three yogurt flavours to choose from: Natural, Chocolate and Green Tea. Once you have decided upon your yogurt of choice, you must pick a size (Little, Classic or MASSIVE) and your topping selection. My pal and I went for the 'Snog Special' which is a Classic size 'Snog' with two toppings for the not too unreasonable price of £4.25.

(Mmm - Strawberry and Chocolate Brownie Snog.)

A great first 'Snog'; it definitely won't be my last.
