[Epona]

Today a cafe in Builth Wells, Wales, hit the Holy Grail: quadruple carbs. Veg curry with half and half (chips and rice), and a naan, but the veg curry had potatoes in it!

Have had a lovely Currywurst crisps (from Lidl) butty today. First time I've done crisps in bread for ages.

Potatoes, rice and mussles from the Heel of Italy is one of the most comforting of comfort dishes.

We had potato curry, rice and naan the other day

Grace Dent, no less, praising my club's half-time catering. Except it's mislabelled in the OP, it's a barm not a roll, obvs.

Sunday with Dom Joly: ‘I’m obsessed with bread sauce and have it on toast’

The comedian talks about loving the Traitors, skipping breakfast, finding Sundays dull and the black labs of Gloucestershire

www.theguardian.com

The Clash wrote about them in Spanish Bombs:

yo te quiero infinito
Yo te acuerda gnocchi calzones

I love you infinitely
I remember you, gnocchi calzones

I recently had patatas bravas topped focaccia but I'm silly so didn't get a pic. I don't think the clash sang about it either.

I don't recall it ever having chips in it in Greece, I feel as though that is a US or UK influenced addition

Chips on pizza is a thing in Italy. Life is full of unpleasant surprises.

Chips/fried potato on pizza is one of life's joys!

'Joy' in its lesser-known sense 'how the fuck can they ruin pizza'?
