In the stand now one Burger Van ( IIR two last year) and a coffee stall selling flimsy stuff and a disgraceful psuedo curry.
Bloody HUGE queques
Hardly the "Belly Rumbling" fare that was promised on the website.

What catering on the prol's side ?

They had a fish and chip van last week, seemed to be going down a storm with the Hull fans!

I think they brought that with them.

Ruddy nice fish and chips..£4.80 tho


Kids got some donuts and pastries.

Also a baked potato stall, didn't have one tho' (brought me own coffee in flask

)

my son got a bottle of fresh orange from little stand behind family stand, got home and realised it was out of date.....oct last year

and this is supposed to be better!

A growler stand would be nice

I had a baked potato. It was very good. Much better than the old one which was ok but was not even there last season.

We want curry, dammit.

I had a lovely curry. Mind you I was at Tebay service station.

Was it a novelty cheese curry?

The only other difference I noticed that hasn't been mentioned was that the baked potato van was also selling Pie & Peas.

I wasn't eating myself, but I gotta say the Fish & Chips van looked pretty good. Actually looked like a chip shop instead of the crap chips you normally get from the burger vans.

It was a chickpea number. It was probably days old but had marinated nicely. The same can't be said of the rice which hadn't improved by being on display since the services were built. As was tigercubs macaroni cheese which had the texture of those strange squidgy things which appeared in the 80s which you could throw at windows & they would slowly roll down. Tasted ok though.

Macaroni cheese. Whatever happened to that? God the eighties were ace.

Amended for accuracy

Did you ever see the Come dine with me episode where a bloke had a 70's themed dinner party? It was ace Prawn cocktail, can't remember the main and black forrest geataux washed down with Liebfraumilch and Baby cham. It was mental but got very low marks from the others as the black forrest geataux had been bought in.

meat pies , hot dogs

fish & chips, baked potatos, pie & peas, burgers, chips, etc etc.

the food this year has been the only good thing about visiting Odsal

On a slightly related issue; how good are the new beer carriers!!

Pretty nice though, and if it stays I'll be having those again. Not that different from that good chippie just outside Stains ground.

Just hope that after a few weeks we don't see all the new offerings morphing into universal burger vans.

I understand Heston Blumenthal is at a loose end for the next couple of weeks, maybe he could rustle up some Fat Duck burgers or something?

Surely his gastro...nomic talents could be more appropriately employed at Headingley? Especially in the executive suite?

i have tried too discuss food on the dragons forum . 2 threads have locked.the 3rd one was deleted

whats wrong with talking food on the french dragons forum



can u help explain this?? is it the french ???

Maybe mod looked that you posted it and presumed it was more of the drivel that you spout and just decided to delete it without even reading it saving everyone time.

I would like to see a smorgasbord stand although that might be quite messy to eat
