What a load of pretentious ste. I know there's a stupid trend away from plates these days but these tts are taking it to another level. I watched one and a bit episodes and saw food being served on a canvas, complete with 'arty' painted squiggles of sauce. The same guy served some fish on a porcelain hand sticking up from the plate (it might have been the same dish), another served his inside a book and another in a massive white pod thing which sat about two feet high on the table and had photos inside. I think he was the one with hair like Nerd Pervert but not in an ironic way, in a Shoreditch fud sort of way.

Plates were specifically designed to eat food from. They're cheap to make, easy to use and quick to clean. Get it on a fking plate you poncy hipster s.

I had the misfortune to see one the other day and it's only gotten worse. I don't remember them giving tedious names to the dishes before. And as for the whole NHS thing, fk me. NHS NHS NHS, heroes, 70 years, heroes, NHS, 70 years... plus every entrant desperately clinging to some tenuous NHS connection in a bid to get maximum worthiness points.

There's so much filler and so little content. And that's assuming you actually want to see the bks they serve up in the first place.

I don't have a telly. It's amazing how much godawful ste you can avoid when you don't have it on as background noise all day.

I happened to catch this in someone else's house.
