Savoyarde potatoes, baked in the oven with stock butter onions and cheese,corn fed chicken a cream and mushroom sauce.Crispy kale and oven dried cherry tomatoes. Give it a go mind you takes about three hours cooking all the ingredients. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regulo Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I worked for BT (previously PO, previously GPO). Our staff canteens could just about manage bangers and mash, or egg and chips - on a good day. How the other half live. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the ingredients , that would cost an arm and a leg to purchase all the elements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect there is still a GP of around 75 -85% in it, our local ‘foodie’ pub still works to around 75% average. Whilst a lovely looking dish, the only element with any significant cost attached is the chicken. Looks fantastic though, aside from the mushrooms which are Satan’s own work... great work chef!
