F'ing Breakfast Treat

There were lots of bloggers and cooks from Nom Nom Nom at the MOO party last week. It was like a mini reunion. Richard Moross MOO's founder from Uncook'd, L J Rich from the Avocadolls, James Whatley from Go Team Six, Tom Reynolds from Letting an idiot near a knife , Jon from the Cream Team, Ged Carroll from Gedmei, my partners in crime Walid from Trustedplaces & Mex from MOO, judge Jo Hemmings fresh from a stint on Big Brother on the Couch, Jamillah from BBC Radio 5's Pods & Blogs who recorded us for the show AND Malcolm Eggs from Eggs Factor, the editor of London Review of Breakfasts.

Which leads me to his brilliant post on Gordon Ramsey from the C4's The F Word and a review of breakfast at the Maze Grill in Mayfair. I'm not going to quote anything from it, as you really need to read it. Funny thing was the breakfast did remind me of some of the breakfasts that Richard Moross & Russell Davies prepared.

The Come Down by Russell Davies

Moross & Davies were the Hares of Nom Nom Nom and a classic case of concept over substance. Excellent concept but poor execution, mainly because they spent more time in drinking milkshakes in the sun and didn't leave enough time to finish off their minimalist breakfasts. But thankfully, unlike Ramsey, at least they weren't charging £26 for a "full" English breakfast!
