The RHP Tavern on the Board is open

Looks good, but that looks like dinner for four, at least!

Actually 6-8 if you looked through the whole thing ingredients and preparation, it tells you at the bottom.

I had my first one ever over in Newfoundland in 2016 it was delicious. They asked us if we wanted dessert. I asked them were we going to put it? The said: you could take it with you.

Man it was some filling I'd never had a jigg's dinner before and they asked me ...[text shortened]... there appeared to be much more on the plate and the plate looked more the size of a platter.

nice
I probably would have enjoyed a jigg's dinner in my younger days
Que Sera Sera

You can enjoy a jigg's dinner at any age providing you can eat the ingredients in it.

When things open up again and I feel safe to travel again, I'll more than likely have another one, this time I'll know about the liquor. 😉

I think that would be a corollary to what @lemondrop said. 😉

At one time, many moons ago, we had a group of friends who got together every couple of weeks to try a meal from a different country. The couple holding the event would choose the country and cook a meal from that country, the other couples would provide some wine or desert from that country. We had had meals from many countries and one time it was our time we decided to cook a Canadian meal, choosing a meal from Newfoundland...Fish n brews. The “wine” chosen by one of the other couples was Screech. We thoroughly enjoyed the “wine”...the meal, in spite of us following the instructions/recipe to a “T”, was horrible. It was more appropriate as a drywall mud.

I would agree to serving dishes from all over the world, as long as they are edible. 🙂

I believe food people may not like would be something too spicy, but then others would love the same dish. Everyone has different tastes when it comes to food. I think a lot has to do with what you had growing up and in your early adulthood. Some have been fortunate to traveled and tried food from all over the world.

That's the kind of difficulty this tavern has to cope with - different tastes. I think we manage quite well. 🙂

Sometimes I speak in paragraphs, like a character on a park bench in Dostoevsky (and indeed I have already written one paragraph then deleted it and started again) -- I'll admit that -- but what I want to say at the moment pertinent to this context is that I would like to help out at The Tavern, e.g., by wiping down the counters and tables, setting the chairs and stools ...[text shortened]... s or for the sake of keeping tallies of counters, but just because.

Humbly and affectionately,
K

Dear K,
You may just be the kind of help we need. Most people who turn up here offering their services usually claim they are good cooks and sometimes they are. What we need is a person who is willing to help out where there are jobs to be done, not necessarily in the kitchen. Let me check with my colleague Stees and we will get back to you.
Sincerely,
Torunn

A large cappuccino please and a chocolate twist.
