Reply to: Best Sandwich

[TheFaQQer]

I remember moving to the Midlands from the North West and asking in a chip shop for a chip barm.... I got puzzled looks and quickly realised that they don't do barms in the Midlands.
So I changed it to chips and gravy, I was almost laughed out of the shop. Gravy... Gravy... we have curry sauce if that's any good

Reminds me of a Peter Kay standup thing.

Don't do peas.
Don't do gravy.
Don't do curry sauce.

"Ast thou owt moist???"

Surely the best contractor sandwich would be a Wagyu Beef, then followed by a chocolate pudding, all washed down with a nice glass of fizz

Barm cake / Bap

Bigger and flatter than your traditional roll.

So is a teacake the same as a barm cake, cob, batch, roll ?

When I first saw it on the menu, I thought much the same. The I realized that local to us, a teacake is what I would describe as a bap, or maybe even just a "big bun".

But not as big as a stottie, which I've not had for a number of years.

I know i know, still, in my corner of the NW a teacake is like a hot cross bun and a batch is a bap and corn beef is disgusting wherever you live.

Especially if you find an eye in the tin.

You haven't, have you?

You may well cry "urggh" if it has currents in it. If it has currants in it, you'll find it'll be much nicer.

Better get a bucket... I think I'm gonna THROW UP.

Spam, sausage, spam, spam, spam, bacon, spam, tomato and spam... or... Lobster thermidor aux crevettes with a Mornay sauce garnished with truffle paté, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam.
