What is, IYO? Lager (no not that one), water or a lactose based beverage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always thought the curry and a pint cliche to be really bizarre. Dont think it works at all. Curry way too fillong to fire lager over the top of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could never sit and fire through the pints with a curry but a nice cold beer over the course is perfect imo. Coke is just mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coke is just mental.I have a pint with food now and again if out with my mates, but even then I generally find alcohol with any meal is massively overrated. And before anyone starts mentioning wine, all wine should be poured down the drain. Putrid stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Expecting a pint in a 5 star Michelin restaurant is in incredibly déclassé. When did the Michelin guide change its rating system to 5 stars? How incredibly déclassé of me to not know this. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Forgive me if you find this confrontational but why would you have a pint if you were in a (proper) restaurant? Bar meal = pints. Restaurant meal = wine. Shirley? Nonsense, it all depends on what the meal is. You're not going to have a pint with coq au vin, nor wine with a steak and ale pie regardless of the venue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that his normal tipple is probably Buckfast, a pint of Tennents is already a step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’re in the same place but arrived via different routes:Steak pie = bar meal = pintCoq au vin = restaurant meal = wine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not sure having a curry is even worth it without a fine beer to go along with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I only drink wine if it comes free, so I only really drink wine at weddings, hospitality at the football or when wee Jimmy the jakie offers me a swig down the shore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By this logic everyone should like everything, and if they don't then it's just because they haven't had a good version of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
