ALDI & LIDL Food and Drink Worth Trying?

Just started and finished a bottle of Vidal from Lidl it's like drinking lychee syrup

Piltons used to do a absolutely superb pair of ice and fire sweet ciders. Truly outstanding but pricey stuff. Got through a frightening amount. The fore one ceases to be sadly as it was even better than the ice.

Ew, I'll have to try that. I do love a meat feast/ American Hot. Fresh or frozen?

Pizza was frozen.

I've had a few of those, and they're very nice indeed. In the run up to Christmas it looked as if they'd been discontinued, but they turned up again. The only trouble with them is that I've had to buy a bigger plate because the rectangular format won't fit on my normal plate. The special plate doesn't quite fit in the sink.

The other one I've been enjoying recently is the Iceland stuffed crust Chilli Dog pizza, very tasty. The same range has an "American Hottest", but in my opinion they're hot but not all that tasty. Maybe the spiciness is just drowning out the taste, but I probably won't buy any more.

Tried their pub gourmet tikka masala tonight based on the recommendations on here. Normally not a fan of ready made curries and tend to make my own from scratch most of the time, but, bloody good it was. Would have been happy enough if it was served up in a restaurant I recon. Would recommend.

A glass of the Clare Valley Shiraz from Lidl went nicely with the shepherd's pie.

edit : Barossa, the Clare is from Aldi

i'm hoping the croissant buns make a comeback in summer, haven't seen this for a while.

still have not seen the soft-serve scotch eggs for years. Bought these on a recommendation on here, they were great!
