点评:Visited Tulleys Farm expecting a wholesome countryside experience. Left questioning whether I accidentally ordered pancakes from the children’s Sylvanian Families menu.
The menu promised PANCAKES. Plural. Excitement levels were high. Visions of fluffy stacks dripping in syrup danced before our eyes. What arrived instead was two pancakes roughly the size of a digestive biscuit and a single wedge of lemon that looked like it had been through a difficult divorce.
The plate itself was absolutely enormous. I genuinely think the chef was trying to create emotional impact through negative space. My mum stared at it in silence for a solid 10 seconds before we both burst into hysterics.
I squeezed the lemon onto one pancake and genuinely feared I’d overdosed it.
To be fair, they tasted nice. But emotionally? I needed at least another 14 pancakes to recover from the shock. Somewhere in the kitchen there’s probably a chef proudly plating these saying, “less is more,” while the pancake batter budget remains untouched.
Would I return? Yes.
Would I order the pancakes again? Only if I’d already eaten beforehand.
RIP to the pancake stack I thought I was getting. Gone but never forgotten. 🥞🍋
翻译:去图利农场(Tulleys Farm)原本期待的是一次纯朴的乡村体验。结果离开时,我甚至怀疑自己是不是不小心从儿童菜单“森林家族”(Sylvanian Families)里点了煎饼。
菜单上赫然写着“煎饼”(PANCAKES),而且是复数。我们兴奋不已,脑海中浮现出一排排蓬松的煎饼,淋着糖浆的画面。然而,端上来的却是两块消化饼干大小的煎饼,外加一小块看起来像是刚经历过一场痛苦离婚的柠檬。
盘子本身也大得惊人。我真心觉得厨师是想用留白来营造一种视觉冲击。我妈盯着盘子看了足足十秒钟,然后我们俩都忍不住笑出了声。
我把柠檬汁挤到一块煎饼上,真怕自己柠檬汁挤多了。
平心而论,煎饼味道还不错。但是,从心理上来说?我至少需要再吃14块煎饼才能从刚才的冲击中缓过来。厨房里某个地方,大概有个厨师正得意洋洋地摆盘,嘴里念叨着“少即是多”,而煎饼面糊的预算却纹丝不动。
我会再来吗?会。
我会再点煎饼吗?除非我之前已经吃过东西了。
安息吧,我原本以为会吃到的那堆煎饼。没了,但永远不会忘记。🥞🍋
