If you want authenticity then you need to visit the cultures and nations from where those foods and ingredients come. If you just want to boast that you had "A really fine Lebanese meal up town last night", or other look-at-me nonsense, fill yer boots.So you're recommending going to Lebanon then lol
Please doYou've got to be a 100% MSM-led shirt-lifting whoosie if you believe that there are no safe places in Lebanon that anyone can visit. Google is your friend, even if nobody else is.

You're really simply rubbish at all this, aren't you, even when you desperately try and spin something to suit your personal, bigoted agenda.?You're still a grass and hypocrite

25 years ago in a pub in London you might get some pork scratchings or a ham sandwich on the bar curled up under one of those plastic domes
You can find restaurants serving the food of any nation you are interested in
Same old right wing cunts who don’t live in London telling us how terrible it is

Fauxstralian wrote: ↑02 Dec 2025, 04:48 I reiterate my point that the standard of restaurants & particularly the level of food available .. good food … at a reasonable price in pubs has massively improved
25 years ago you got a rubber steak in Angus Steakhouse now you can go to Hawksmoor or similar
Now you can go to your local for a Sunday roast or a midweek meal
Enjoy your authentic pork scratchings in the Firkin & Farage with a half of shandy
Hospitality of any kind is more expensive in London
Utility prices are killing pubs
Maybe that dismal witch Thatcher shouldn’t have given away water, gas & electricity. That’s turned out well hasn’t it?
Bit like our cheap efficient railway system & all that available public housing

Shops I used to frequent are closing, companies going out of business and as for pubs & restaurants, there seems to be an active agenda to rid the country of them completely.
I learnt long ago that these changes were not for my benefit, but I never could see who was gaining from all this rapid change.You're not including the time you spent in the detector vans grassing up working class people but instead helping the agenda you claim you oppose?
