Is 'sweaty' really a term of abuse? I'm disappointed for Sven, but I'm sure he'll live. I should have predicted the sensitive Sallies and the PC brigade getting their backs up, they've got to be offended about something.
LOL.

There is one person that seems to be offended, and that's you. You're the one that's wound up and getting all upset because Jamie won.

If you gave your opinion in a more mature way people would maybe give your actual opinion a little more attention, rather than coming across as rather obtuse.

You've a very one sided view of matters and seem to be having g a childish strop because the person you have an affection for didn't win.

I've never seen someone so sensitive about a cooking programme before. Try to avoid programmes after then watershed.

I'd take El Celler.

I'm a big fan of 'poncy' food and I love the ethos of Mugaritz. Sadly, the actual eating experience simply didn't live up to the expectations. Not even close. Perhaps we were unlucky (in 2013) but Mrs Gruffy and I we're both massively underwhelmed by our meal there. Unpleasant textures and non-descript flavours. Three spectacularly good dishes from a 22 course meal wasn't enough to save this from being the most disappointing fine dining experience I've had.

I don't think I'd thank anyone for that dessert and it looks more like a marshmallow than meringue.

And again. Oh dear.

Very much a skills test! Don't think I'd mange it beyond the custard.

Errrrr. Bit one sided skills test. Or it could just be me and the fact that I rarely cook desserts or even eat them.

He's the stand out for me tonight.

But they do all seem to be at the top of their game.
