Last night went out for dinner with our French neighbours ,i ordered a lamb shank as did my neighbour, 2 ladies had moules ,5 minutes later meals arrived ,i remarked that this was rather rapid ,on which my neighbour replied ,its like English pub meals now ,all boil in the bag ,as they say .has anyone else thought the same ..
Yes, of course. In most pubs, the menu is determined by what is available from the ready-meals wholesaler. All pick-n-mix.
That's not to say that there aren't any decent chefs working in pubs and producing super food, but as you say, it's all given away when the plate arrives just that little bit too quickly.
Dunno about dinner but we often use truckers or workers restaurants here in Normandy lunch time where with a limited choice of 4 dishes can be served hot very quickly.
I guess most are pre cooked and kept ready as most French eat between 12.30 and 14.00.

Hi ,Ray ,does this mean the left overs are used in the evening,,?
I am sure this does happen.
On two occasions we have been taken to nice restaurants for dinner and before the bill came I have got rid of it all in the loo.
I am fortunate or unfortunate to have a very short digestional tract. If something is suspect I know about it within 20 minutes and passed in another 20 minutes.

In fact, I would say almost any Pub Chain owned by the Banks will be just that. This is why I normally choose a steak or Fish N Chips. 3663 is a major supplier to the pub trade.
Many Restaurants, even if not big chains will be the same. Ready cooked meals. How else can you expect low staffed small kitchen serve a range of 40 or so menu meals in one sitting?.
Those lamb shanks are probably nuked to so a high temp, they have lost any natural flavour and nutrients. I think Gordon ******* Ramsey promoted one and then fell flat on his face when the truth emerged about its quality.
