Friday Night Funny

For those of you who haven't seen this yet...it. is. hilarious.  Seems that the UK has been gripped by a (horrible) trend whereby pubs, caffs, bistros, rest au rantes, coffee shops, etcetera, go out of their way to serve all manner of food and drink on/in something other than plates, glasses and cups.  Witness here the joy of being served your steak and melted garlic butter on a well used (and knife marked) flat wooden board.  Or your full English breakfast on a shovel!  A fruit shake in a light bulb and butter on a rock.  Witness too the ingenuity of food served on construction debris and pieces of clothing. And sometimes just on the table top itself. Too hilarious (and frightening) for words.

Enjoy!  Oh, and Bon Appetite!

  1. It's all the fault of hipsters apparently. The trend has spread into Europe. Please be vigilant in NA and refuse to eat any food that isn't served on a plate (or in a bowl where appropriate).

  2. I'd rather eat food out of a hub cap than discuss race with a barista!

    1. Hubcaps look like plates. When you're finished with your meal you can use it to silence the barista.

      Or any other topic, for that matter. Just fix my breve. I always give them a different name "Tiffany" "Ethel" Shaniqwa".

      Actually, we both decided...fuck Starbucks. Their coffee is crappy anyway; this "race together" business was simply the straw that broke the camel's back. There are decent indies in every town.

  3. Shovel? Bobbed rear fender of a Harley would be awesome for pancakes; all the syrup would collect in one spot...

  4. This new trend ranges from ridiculous to utterly absurd to bust-a-gut hilarious. If somebody dares to serve me my food on a hod shovel, I'm walking out. Ew.

  5. Good lord in heaven.

    You know the food can't be too good when they have to resort to cheesy gimmicks.

    Oh, and I'm an old fuddy duddy :-)
