Food

Don't be a quilt

Loud, yes
Ugly, how so? I'd say different
Full of twats - name a part of London that isn't
So-so food - compared to what? The price is justifiable for the food

Too loud to think. I want to eat and talk. I'm an adult now.
Ugly, I should know, I'm a designer, I know what's ugly, you don't.
Food's good but it's only as good at The Diner and there's no queue there.

Heh, sucked in. Just another fashionable burger victim, Pista.

Not really - fella at work knows the owner so we've been a few times

I've queued for 2 hours, right at the start when it was cool, you must have been more recently.

Just sayin...

Yep, then I realised it was all hype and ate somewhere better.

Who queues for 2hrs FFS?!

Cunts

Fairly sweeping statement from someone with the PACHA logo tattooed on his arm?!

Do we think someone's taking the internet a bit too seriously here, guys?

Hang on, we're talking about burgers FFS, no need to 'rally the troops' for back up

Alright man, chillax ffs.

You're all cunts.

Now go eat burgers.

Calm down man, it's Friday.

basically dirtyburger is how pisti would put it "lish"

Full of twats - name a part of London that isn't

Islington?

Ah, no, hang on, as you were. :)

All this hoo-ha over a burger?

People need to grow the fuck up. It's a burger ffs.

I know right. Just my opinion.

Wind your neck in, George McFly.

VB! Ban him ffs!

On what grounds, Sir?

This is where I'm at with my sourdough these days. The weather today was perfect for bread making :-)

Boom! Looks fantastic. Just getting into breadmaking and this is srs inspiration.

^^ I want that bread right now. Have done a bit of fairly successful bread baking, but never tried the king of loaves that is sourdough. Is there much different in the technique / method etc?

Sourdough is slow bread. The method I use is from Tartine Bread (£17 on Amazon, well worth it). It takes a long time but very little actual working time - you mainly let the ingredients do their stuff.
For this loaf I fed my starter last night, mixed my dough this morning, did various stages of proving/shaping and a final rise before baking at 2 this afternoon. It is flexible though as you can have the final rise with the dough in your fridge which slows everything down - up to and over 12 hours including overnight. Is gives you options to fit it around your working life.

It is very satisfying to create a loaf that looks and tastes as good as that

A few Qs if you don't mind! Did you introduce anything to the flour/water mix to originally create the starter or use wild yeasts in the air?

When you seperate out some starter in the evening to feed for your next day's loaf, how much flour/water do you add to feed it? Thanks Bainbridge.

I agree, to have refined one's technique to that ^ must be v.satisfying.

I have srs bread envy right now. Bainbridge, that sourdough looks perfect!
