Perfect.
You won’t regret it.
Although you’ll find your prawn cocktails get bigger and bigger 😂

I was going to say just pop into a charity shop. They always have odd glasses selling very cheaply. But these look fine.

They were only £3 each so not too bad a price and I love eating seafood as a snack and they'll make great dishes for using up leftover milk as I have some Angel Delight (Butterscotch flavour of course) in the cupboard that will go great in them!

If you don’t mind me asking (if you do please just ignore this) but what sort of age are you?
Angel Delight is the pudding of some very specific generations.
 
Just trying out one of my new bowls:

Classic prawn cocktail is delish. You can't put it in a ramekin, though; that's like serving a pint of best bitter in a plastic bag. :laugh: :laugh:
It needs to be served in a sundae dish, or a wide mouthed wine glass.
Lettuce , cooked prawns, marie rose sauce, maybe a touch of tabasco, and maybe some avocado. Absolutely NO garlic.:laugh:
I did some for an event a couple of years ago, and basically, that's what it was. I might have spiked the Marie-Rose with something or other, and I might have added a tiny amount of minced onion. Or not.

My nephew's wedding. He insisted I did the catering. I went through the whole evening changing from a suit into Chef's whites, and back , and forth. Felt a bit like Robin Williams in the last part of Mrs Doubtfire :hyper: :laugh: :laugh:
