Re: Bacon butties in ZH

reasons to take a suitcase for two nights in London next week? Check For me it's that plus king-size quilt covers from John Lewis. And don't get SWMBO onto what she wants in the US a week later.

I do know that a place was doing cuts like our bacon in Ober/UnterenGstringen a few years ago - get to know your butcher and you might be surprised.

Re: Bacon butties in ZH

Yup, you're right LR. Someone I know here in MUC went to his local butcher, waved a piece of bacon under his nose and said "Oi, Mush! I want some of this!" (or words to that effect) and the butcher knew exactly what was required (where to cut from and so on), and he now gets proper bacon. The git.

if you order from this "over the rainbow" how do they deliver and how long do deliveries usually take ( I'm having visions of week old sausages in the post )
we orderd some bacon and other meat from there and when it arrived at our house it was defrosted so we had to throw it away!

Re: Bacon butties in ZH

So once you've got the bacon which bread do you use?

The ideal bacon buttie needs soft, chemically treated white ready sliced bread ala warbutons.

The sliced bread here is already stale and only fit for the toaster.

Re: Bacon butties in ZH

Given the success of this thread I'm considering throwing a bacon sarny party when I finally arrive in town permanently. BYOB (bring your own bacon), obviously.

Re: Bacon butties in ZH

we had bacon butties for breakfast this morning with real bacon . Jelmoli food hall is now selling real Scottish bacon at the butcher counter, it cost around CHF10 for 9 slices & was worth every penny.
