Of course, Trollio..... you hail from England where they make some of the best damn tea on the planet apart from India.

 

Belgian fries with mayo? No bloomin' way. Eeow. Then again, I have dipped mine in chocolate sundae.

The thing I don't like about the Belgian version of fries is that they use mayonnaise instead of ketchup on them.

I eat mine plain or with some gravy. poutine.

There's a really great Belgian cafe on Commercial that makes fries to die for. A must!!

Yowza! Another Euro fry haus in Van to check out? Yippee! We always stay in a hotel a block away from Fritz downtown (I can't remember the street name) and just love it! And I love mayo on my fries! Especially the dutch mayo they have at Fritz. There are no Euro fry shops here in Portland - I thought aboot opening one until I realized I really do hate food service and wouldn't want to buy myself a job.

I thought you were a canuck now future canadian.. Portland is a beautiful place, do you go to the shakespeare festival there when its that time of year there? Ive been down three times to see it over the past 8 years.

 

Uh, I dont mean to rock everyones boat, lol, but I LOVE mayo or ranch dressing on my fries. Its the same idea as eating the mcchicken sauce from rons gourmet steakhouse on teh fries from there. I actually dont like catsup on my fries.

 

I actually gave up on tea, and am now onto a mug of afterdinner darkroast.

A Canuck in spirit only for now, but PDX does make for a decent substitute for sure. I've yet to get to Ashland, but I'm sure we will eventually. I did get to see the Oregon Shakespere Company perform Glengarry Glenross a number of years back, tho. That was a treat. There is so much going on around here in theater, music, art, outdoors, etcetc that I wish I could take in. With all that free time I have, of course.

Well see, that's what imperialism gets you. We don't actually grow any of the stuff. It all comes from India and China and some other places in that part of the world. We just put things in it and then you get things like Earl Grey. We also make it stronger than other European nations, and that's why people go on about English tea.

OIC. Thanks for clearing that up. I just remember drinking tea in England and it was such utter bliss. Can't duplicate the same stuff here no matter how hard I tried.
