You have a works canteen, where do you work - the 1970's?

thats what I still call the ones we have,  they want to call them restaurants, but they're nothing more than canteens really

the suit is a Hugo Rune (I think, certainly a Robert Rankin) reference.

It's probably a tradition, or an old charter, or something.

Beans are classed as 1 item, heres how it breaks down

4 bacon

4 sausage

3 eggs

2 hashbrowns

1 beans

1 tomatos

1 black pudding

1 mushrooms

2 toast

Ditch the beans for another hash brown.

Then you have my Sunday morning special.

Yum!

Col_Decker

Never sir. Quality beans are the making of a fry-up. The black pudding can do one though.

No fry-up is ever complete without black pudding.

And preferably white also.

Indeed.

Just to report that I'm bloody ravenous now ! :P

my personal  'no-no'  fried egg and beans on the same plate, one or the other.

and NEVER tomato  (unless its berts, special tomatos......   deglaze the bacon pan with a tin of chopped toms (make sure the bacon has caught a bit)  reduce for 5 mins, add some finely chopped shallot, a small pinch of fresh thyme and black pepper. V Small amount of finely chopped garlic (1/4 clove) can be added to taste - serve while shallot still has some bite

agreed @bertie there's summat VERY wrong with egg yolk and bean juice mixed. The eggs should be on the other side of the place from the beans, preferably with 2 sausages in betwen.

New canteen contractor often means nice grub for a month, then back to the standards of the old contractor. I've seen it a few times.

Is it true that black pudding is made from blood and white pudding is made from lymph, snot, pus, spunk and spit?

Mmmmnnnnn .......... I love a full cooked brekkie!

Our canteen is fab and also does tons of lovely fry-up. I'm high cholesterol, but I do indulge in a couple of eggs and bacon on a Friday - my weekly luxury.
