pottedplant   10 #13 Posted February 13, 2013 I went to a pub in Cumbria that did similar. Unfortunately they charged £11 for ONE mushroom with a side salad. When asked if the side salad could be replaced with chips, because the person I was with was hungry, we were told that the chef wouldn't put chips with it because "it comes with salad".  haha that old pretentious chesnut!

Susil   10 #15 Posted February 13, 2013 I think the best answer I can give to that question isn't a dish - but "a choice". Some places include the old "vegetarian option" as a sort of afterthought, it's better when they just have some dishes without meat.

rosaespanola   10 #16 Posted February 18, 2013 I'm a massive foodie and I love eating out in different types of restaurants, but if I'm eating in a pub then I tend to want what I think of as proper pub food, not ponced about gastropub-style tartlets or pasta dishes that taste like microwave meals. I'd be quite happy with veggie sausages & mash, Yorkshire puddings with veggie sausages, some kind of veggie roast with all the potatoes & veg, and so on. One of the pubs in Castleton used to do a brilliant selection of this sort of stuff, but last time we went they'd completely changed the menu and gone for the aforementioned poncy gastropub nonsense. If I want Thai/Italian/Spanish/Indian food then I'll go to a restaurant where they specialise in that type of food, not a pub that does a half-hearted version of it...I must secretly be a bit of a traditionalist, but I think that pubs should stick to what they've always done best!  Incidentally, what do the Cricket Inn say is veggie that isn't? I've been there quite a few times and never found this to be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
beefface   10 #17 Posted February 18, 2013 Aubergine Parmigiana served with good bread  Absolutely! but it's never as good as homemade! it's gotta be deep, dense and rich, the bread's got to be warm and the red wine has to be room temp an' naughty, in a big glass!
