Halon's: 'What is the last thing you ate/drank?' 2.0

Glass of starward Australian whiskey

Yeah how is that actually? It’s one of the few countries i haven’t tasted the whiskey from.

Yeah it's really good. Every country has their own twist on whiskey I find. In general Scotch is wild and rugged, Irish is more balanced (combines ruggedness and sweetness quite well), Japanese is sweet yet sophisticated and Aussie stuff is more understated, a bit like English whiskey. Of course it all equates to getting muntered while feeling like a classy broad so it's all good

nice, might get me a bottle if wallet permits. Sounds like a good whiskey to start the evening with tbh. Me and the lads organize a wiskey/poker evening once a blue moon and I got complaints that the Talisker I kicked off with this year is waay to peaty and brute for starters (pussies..)

Yeah talisker is a bit much for the average drinker. It's brash and unforgiving, I love it but yeah definitely something you gotta build up to. I once took half a bottle of lagavulin 16yr to a Burns night party and that had a similar effect. As it was full of Scots I wrongly expected them not to be a bunch of pussies but apparently I misread the situation

You just summed up my two favourite wiskeys heh. Macleod’s high up the list too. Dunno what it is about Skye and Islay wiskeys but I always seem to get back to them purely for their character

Beef wellington which was brilliant albeit slightly too well done.

créme brûlée, followed by an Irish coffee

all self made (apart from the whiskey)

That sounds like exquisite culinary delights and a Taste Sensation!

Trancefixers Christmas at Jetflags next year?

Christmas dinner day2

A lightly bound fish-soup consisting of clamps, mussels, shrimp, salmon and cod. Fresh parsley and croutons,

Pork roll with rosemary, thyme and a light salad

A proper plain ol' chicken with oranges out of the oven, no additional stuffing, no junk in it, just proper biological meat & that it (seriously, whoever came up with this whole turkey for christmas dinner is a moron imo. chicken is way more tender & juicier) accompanied by a batch of unapologetic hipster-fries (sweet potato, selfmade truffel mayonaise and spring onions)

we skipped desert, everyone was full, but i did have doppio and a glass of Lagavulin 18

I used to love avocados—I ate them all the time in salads, on toast, and even in smoothies. But then I came across this article, and it made me rethink how much I was consuming. It turns out, although avocados are often considered a superfood, they can have negative side effects, such as digestive issues or even allergic reactions in some people.
Now, I’m more cautious about how often I include them in my diet.
