Wasn't King Arthur born in Tintagel, Cornwall?

So, if you want to eat well over here there is nothing to stop you. It's just that most of us prefer cr-ap.

You are not the only ones to eat cr-ap ever hear of poutine?

Funny, the supermarket near here has a pizza I call the cardiac arrest. I wonder what would happen if you combined the two.... It's sausage, peperoni, hamburger and ham. And greasy as "fudge".

You're welcome both at any time. Squash and blueberry soup followed by salmon souffle with braised vegetables is the specialité de la maison wolf this month.

Taking orders now.

So they say, zed - at lease, some do. These days Tintagel is home to crystal ball gazers and martian spaceship trackers. The big A is supposed to return to defend Albion (England) in her moment of need. I reckon he's pretty much due, if only to purge his home town of New Age tourists. Trouble is, if he did come back he'd probably have a problem telling the real Excalibur from all the tourist fakes.

But the place still has some real magic to it. Years ago, on a coastal walking trip, I wandered into Tintagel at three o'clock on a moonlit night and spent a good ten minutes ambling up the High Street behind two totally chilled out badgers.

And just south-west of Tintagel there is a little place called Trebarwith which used to have the best wholefood restaurant this side of the moon. Yumm. (Just to keep this thread vaguely on topic.)

"Poutine is a dish consisting of French fries topped with fresh cheese curds and covered with hot gravy (usually brown gravy) and sometimes other additional ingredients. ... It is a quintessential Canadian comfort food, especially but not exclusively among Québécois." From Wikipedia

Chips and cheese and gravy. :| - OK. ♪♪♪

That's a Pizza? That sounds more like something I would find in the bottom of my sink on a failed housekeeping day.
