M&S Marks and Spencers British Chicken livers review

I don't know why I got these chicken livers but I am so glad I got them because they were so damn good.

The label suggests season and stir fry which then jogged some memories of this Sichuan style chilli and chicken offal dish.

The best thing is that it was pure livers in this pack so I did just that, stir fried it with some red and green chilli and celery and the taste was amazing.

The dish ended up looking like Flipino dinguan which is pork in blood but the haemoglobin in this dish was simply delicious.

The trick is not too overcook the liver so that it is still soft and velvety.








Oriental fortune roti span mantou

I have never understood why bakery in the West and East are so different.

In terms of texture, Asian bread is too soft and I find them really difficult to swallow especially things like mantou.

I love pandan so tried the Oriental fortune mantou which was bland and tasteless.

The worst thing was the immense difficulty in swallowing it.

M&S Marks and Spencers Shaoxing wine

Adding wine always enhances food especially meat and seafood. 

Shaoxing wine is one of them used in black bean dishes which is why the black bean chicken at M&S is so delicious hence the reason I got the Marks and Spencers Shaoxing wine.

It was a bargain as well because other supermarkets sell 150ml for £3.






M&S Marks and Spencers British unsmoked crispy bacon strips

As well as regular bacon, these crispy bacons strips are sinfully delicious and addictive.

They are crispy and salty which make them great on salads, sandwiches and eating them just like that.










Easter finds at Lidl 2021

 Although I don't really shop at Lidl, I do like their dark chocolate Easter range especially the dark chocolate and mint.















Mcennedy cherry cranberry milkshake by Lidl

If you are a regular shopper at Lidl, you will know that every now and then they will have a TASTE OF AMERICA going on in the store with Mcennedy products like pizza, corndog, fast food etc.

Milkshake is one of them, in 2016 they had so many flavours like apple pie, blueberry muffin and chocolate and in 2018 there was Bourbon Vanilla milkshake costing 49p.

This year, they had sour cherry and cranberry milkshake which I had to try as a cherry lover.

I don't know if anyone still remembers but Asda used to have thick milk shakes just like this in the 80s to 90s.

They were delicious back then especially the chocolate.

Since Lidl has a similar thing for their American food week, I decided to give it a go.

Planned to get the chocolate and cherry but cherry was the only one left and without a lid.

Frankly it was horrible, the cherry was artificial and smelled like refreshers fizzy sweets mixed with medicinal cherry dioralyte [the stuff you drink for tummy upsets].

As a sour cherry flavour, it lacked tartness if at all any.

It didn't bring me memories of asda but it certainly made me remember refreshers and dioralyte!!

Even though I didn't like it I would buy a different flavour because I think the artificial cherry flavour killed it more than anything else.
