It is moronic mind... melted cheese from a toasted sandwich running onto a napkin under it on the plate... sigh.

If they are going to do it they should, at least, use napkins that don't disintegrate upon contact with anything moist! It is a pain picking bits of 'bog roll' off the bottom of a hot panini.

It is, but thank you. You've just provided me with a great new insult.

As in "Bloody hell, he's as useless as bog roll on the bottom of a hot panini"

Some people are forever looking for excuses to be able to tell the world they can afford to eat out .

I said the same just the other night when we were in Heston Blumenthal's place.

Don't be daft 3BMcG... you missed out on the vegetables if you didn't eat the napkin. That's £57 wasted and your 5 a day.

It only ever happens with paper napkins. There's a hint there somewhere.

 

[Beebo]

I always though a napkin was made of cloth and a serviette was made of paper?

 

[Archie_tect]

Melted cheese does not discriminate.

Mort, you're getting confused with the dog.

Don't name drop, Sting told me that at Elton John's place.

 

[tyred]

You're not supposed to eat the napkin?

I think we should march against this lazy modern use of napkins to present food, and return to proper traditional doilies.

Forget Starbucks being robbing tax dodgers, we must boycott their stores until they bring in a decent lacy doily.
