I think I got the wrong order chef!

(First time ever despite my trolling since our reddit days. A Birmingham Balti is a UK thing and typically uses chicken breast, only place you can buy one in Melbs is BaseCamp in Northcote. Loved the factory / coal power plant though :D)

A Birmingham factoryโ€™s Baltimore crab is what you must enjoy

Haha, I can't stomach even the thought of crab atm. We were recently in Japan and at one of the places, every single dish included crab; try eating 8 courses of crab and then being faced with crab for breakfast.

"Crab with a side of crab with crab souffle" to paint a mental picture.

Ms. Indisin was nearly in tears when she asked them to take away the nearly full crab bucket and they apologetically said that the next course was also crab. I'm getting flashbacks typing this lol.

Thanks though!

That is unfortunate. In that case we shall replace crab with Baltimoreโ€™s Old Bay spice.

Any chance of just plain old regular Old Spice chef?

You may request it tomorrow. We shall prepare.
