Interesting - I didn't know that scampi was another one of those things that is different around the world. Over here scampi are breaded and deep-fried langoustine tails, and are a staple of a typical pub menu.

And in my limited experience of British pubs, usually served in a basket with chips and tartar sauce?

Same as last night, my homemade "Indian" and brown basmati rice. No photo, didn't look any different from last night, lol.

I have that trouble all the time. I try to make the same dish look different but it always appears to look the same.

Green bean mash with barbecue chicken and barbecue flavored gravy. The bits in the gravy are rosemary sprigs.

Gluten and Dairy-Free Banana Bread.
I've used buckwheat flour, sunflower oil and Muscovado sugar.
Quite country-like texture.

I heard it's "insulting" to ask for lemon?

I'm not sure that's the case any more. Langoustine are really expensive these days and most of the large ones exported to France & Spain. Maybe the pubs buy them in ready-made and breadded from the small langoustines chopped up or something?

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they do. I do like scampi, but it's not a gourmet experience

This is (or something very similar) what you get if you order scampi in the US...

Today is "feeding the ghosts day" in Laos, Cambodia and Thailand (and more than likely other countries also). The consequence is that feeding the living is ignored and I cannot find a noodle shop open!

Like a "Cheesy egg scramble" This was a "what do I have in my fridge"? and then combine a bunch of stuff. I had some potatoes, onions, ham, and cheese. Threw them together, and put some eggs in it as a binder. It tastes so much better than it looks.

We do that frequently here, one of our favorites!
