James Dempsey has created beans on toast - but not as you know it.

The quirky dessert is made from carefully-crafted marzipan "beans" in a sauce using orange zest, juice and cream.

Meanwhile the "toast" is lemon drizzle cake, sliced to look like bread and given the right look and temperature by placing under the grill .

No detail is left to chance - the yellow yolk is mango coulis - and the white of the egg, panna cotta, made from milk and cream, cooled to just the right temperature before being poured onto a plate in layers to get a natural-looking ripple effect.

I don't get this "food that looks like other things" tomfoolery. I like Heston Blumenthal,  but he needs a slap for starting this bollocks.

 

"I've made this beautiful dessert with seventeen types of top grade chocolate, saffron, truffles and gold leaf. And I've crafted it to look like a human turd. Bon appetit!"

Just had this Miner's Benedict from a small independent pub called Wetherspoons. 2 poached eggs on 2 slices of black pudding on an open muffin with hollandaise sauce. Apart from the unexplainable presence of a handful of rocket on the top, a very nice breakfast dish. £4.80 with a refillable hot drink.

Where is this Wetherspoons place, Paulie? I'd quite like to go there one day and see if it's any good.

Me Ma’s effort today, everything cooked exactly as I like it. Minus a point for the lack of black pudding the lazy cow and half a point for one of the sausages breaking. 2 pieces of toast accompanied it.

I’d like those eggs to have been flipped for a few seconds before they were served, but that’s picking fault. Looks spot on really.

 

Just like I remember her serving up. pass on my best.

No need to flip the eggs, just splash the fat for a little longer. A lot of people seem to like their yolks like the ones in the picture. Personally, I don’t.

The weirdest part is that they served it in a hat that was used on Ladies Day at Aintree.

To be frank it's quite possible this picture is of a hat used on Ladies Day at Aintree.

20 reps for a breakfast with no beans. Has everyone on here gone soft or what? The rest of it looks great but I’m afraid I’m negging anyway. Your ma needs to get her bean situation sorted.

Cheese toasties, stacked with veggie sausage patties, eggs and portobello mushrooms. Thin layer of brown sauce underneath the patties.

 

Greatness on a plate.

 

a truly spectacular miss clive.

So 1st of all we'll start on price. £15 for the breakfast plus 2 coffees. Then the cheeky cunts put on a 12.5% service charge. 

 

Onto the breakfast itself. I chose the "full monty" which is what you see, but I took out fungus and they offered me a hash brown in return. It was 1 toast, 2 eggs, 2 bacon, 1 sausage, 1 black pudding, those home fries they have in America, the hash brown, half a tomato and beans. 

 

Quality.... For the bad first ... Not enough butter for the toast. And the toast was brown, for me a fry up has to come with white toast, but it was decent enough. The bacon was nice, but there was loads and loads of that white shite that comes out of bacon. The home fries were not really like ones I've had in the states, they were much drier. They tasted good (a kind of Southern fried seasoning on there), but it was too much and too dry. Onto the good. The sausage and black pudding were fucking great, almost worth coming for that alone. These items are important for me on a breakie. And the beans were suppose to be Heinz, but tasted 10 times better than any Heinz beans I've had before. I can take or leave beans on a breakfast, but if I came back here they'd be a must, maybe even for you bean haters. 

 

Overall I really enjoyed it. If I picked the ingredients I'd double the sausage and black pud and half the home fries. That might get it a 10/10. Oh with some white toast. 

 

All in all, taste 8.5/10, value 6.5/10 (fucking 17 quid?!). I would go back providing like today I wasn't paying.

Is there a fear of breeding with these fuckers? There has to be a reason for the single, solitary items, are they scared of gay bacon?

Brave choice to go with an uncooked human scrotum on the left hand side of the plate in that bottom pic.
