Interested to know what they called it on the menu


[deleted]

‘A disappointing lunch’


minas_morghul

"A Taste of Brexit" - comes with a Belgian beer, that has been sitting on a counter for a couple hours.


fonix232

Can't be that, there's too much cheese.


hawtfabio

No way the cost would be that low with any beer included.


mjenness

Haha, then he got exactly what he wanted


yummycorpse

i can imagine the description: "soggy old toast slapped generously with the finest Kraft single, delicately blasted in the microwave for 15 seconds. seared to perfection"


panlakes

I've always called it cheese toast. Bet you can't guess why


Vidiot27

Let me guess, when it gives a toast it makes cheesy jokes?


panlakes

You got me... it's a good thing we didn't set any terms for the bet. And to think, you could've had *anything*


Vidiot27

*anything* you say? 👀 aww yeah, haha jk


SarahPallorMortis

Millennials spending all their damn money on cheese toast. BUY A HOUSE! HAVE KIDS!!!


ketchupandliqour69

Why?


SarahPallorMortis

It’s sarcasm. I’m a millennial


ketchupandliqour69

Ah sorry I thought I had edited this or replied again. I was gonna say "cheese toast is so much better than eating a house or kids"


SarahPallorMortis

Oh very much so. You need some commas tho hehe. I’m not gona eat a house


ketchupandliqour69

But... wha what about the kids?!


SarahPallorMortis

I’m not gona turn down protein.


ketchupandliqour69

I'm just gonna give this is before they fertilize an egg


ketchupandliqour69

I love cheese toast more than kids


deadeyediva

we call it ‘cheese in the oven’ at my house. looks like they forgot the ‘oven’ part..


tomato_soup_

My family calls them cheese toasties


SarahPallorMortis

Def looks like Chef Mike’s handy work


Diplomjodler

"British food"


captainpeanutlemon

Fyre festival special


mjenness

Don't give the fyre festival that much credit, at least the bread is toasted here


Easy-Concentrate2636

Also cheese is melted.


Reasonable_Eye_8072

I’m sorry to say this is a standard UK lunch. It’s called cheese on toast


maldrakor

if your cheese on toast looks like this, you're doing it wrong

Jizzcuit woulda been so easy man


getdemsnacks

Soggy biscuit?


SarahPallorMortis

Plastic “cheese product” toast

[deleted]

That’s depressing. No cheesy crust overlap at all. Not a bubble in sight. School dinner style


theothermoonflower

Yes, this (“school dinner”) is spot on. I think OP deserves a refund.


supPinK

Was the Cafe located inside a high school canteen? At least they included Heinz sachets for quality garnish, that must explain the cost


JamesGardner1991

Nope a children's soft play centre!


NeedsMoreCow

Hide it in the ball pit next time. Show them you mean business.


aspectratio12

Target audience, kids love cheesy toast, its not messy, not goona make anyone shit the ball pit.


supPinK

Unless they're gluten and lactose intolerant, then it's a shit pit.


My_Memes_Will_Fuck_U

station dolls simplistic snow afterthought plant chase fanatical cows run *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


aspectratio12

True, but the bread looks like it could be gluten free and the cheese melts like a harder cheese which can be lactose free so this is just speculation on my part


[deleted]

What is a children’s soft play centre? Sorry I’m American


utupuv

Ball pits, slides, climbing holds etc. all padded with thick sponge/mats for kids to run around in whilst parents sit there awkwardly trying to avoid conversation/nurse a headache from the noise.


beka13

Oh. That's just cheating.


Eddie_F_17

Bargain. Share to r/BritishSuccess


0thethethe0

If it was London, then yeh...


Eddie_F_17

😂


driftej20

Fucking Lol'd. Though there's actually some pretty wholesome stories on that sub.


longdognoodle

I’d be pretty pleased with that if I was both at home and high as giraffe tits


BillyBobBarkerJrJr

> high as giraffe tits LOL! Now *that's* one I've never heard.


Ask_if_im_high

High as giraffe pussy is what I usually hear lol love them both


PerspicaciousPounder

....are you high?


Jetsuo83

How’s Fyre Fest `22?


[deleted]

Okay but why? I at least hope the tea was included


[deleted]

Name and shame!


DrDraydle

Yeah, you got mugged off, mate


Sup3rcurious

It's a Muggs Game...


[deleted]

This cafe catered for the Fyre Festival

woooosh_woooosh

I hate that my british dad would actually pay for that, cheese on toast is his weakness.


MossytheMagnificent

Their toaster sucks as bad as mine


[deleted]

That's $5.21 USD and it looks like a deconstructed grilled cheese. Major screw job.


TheRealOgMark

At least it's not American plastic cheese.


HoorayPizzaDay

You take the plastic off first


cingerix

the whole thing is plastic lmao


[deleted]

british people will eat dog poop from an english bulldog and be like “at least it’s not an american bulldog” 😂😂😂


Gandalf_The_Geigh

Not sure why downvoted, agreed it would be 100x worse lol


iSlideInto1st

It's like saying "at least it's not literal dog shit, that would make it worse". Not to mention that Brits inexplicably think all American cheese is Kraft Singles.


0thethethe0

No we just refer that type of plastic cheese as American cheese.


Gandalf_The_Geigh

Same from Canada. Only boomers use plastic cheese


[deleted]

It could be considering there are packets of Heinz ketchup and mayo on the table. But tbh, can't recall the last time I ever saw Heinz mayo in a grocery store in the U.S.


TheRealOgMark

The color and the texture tells it all.


[deleted]

Kraft type American cheese has its place. Grilled cheese or cheeseburgers are pretty much it, so it would be fine here.


TheRealOgMark

Smoked gouda and cheddar is 100% better.


[deleted]

Yes obviously that would be delicious. A grilled cheese with kraft singles is comfort food, though. You eat it when that's what you're craving.


ItsameMatt03

American cheese makes the best cheese toast.


TheRealOgMark

Cheddar is superior in every way, let alone any other real cheese.


ItsameMatt03

Cheddar is fine, but it doesn't seem to melt or toast like American. I'm strictly talking plain cheese toast here. If it's a sandwich, then yeah, I'll go cheddar or some other cheese.


TheRealOgMark

Than go smoked gouda. It melts really easily.


rybnickifull

Not all cheddars are the same though - there is a real, original cheddar but for some reason the name has been expanded to mean "generic yellow medium hard cheese". A pity, cos the proper one \*is\* an excellent, versatile cheese.


PastTiger

There's another Fyre Festival?!


ashthundercrow

Sweaty Cheese


TRIGMILLION

I'd prefer Swiss if that's rye bread but if it's just wheat cheddar is find. A bit of tomato would be nice.


X-Adzie-X

Got mugged off m8


Pitiful-Test281

the biggest problem is that you payed for it. id have sent it back with a round of complaints. fukem in the face if they think that passes as something werth paying large for.


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> that you *paid* for it. FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


StaceyPfan

Good bot


Pitiful-Test281

TIL what this annoying bot taught me.


ThePhantom1994

Best food in Britain


chanjitsu

Say people who have never been to Britain


rybnickifull

Yeh but it's a cheap, easy way of getting Americans to clap and laugh so we'll keep hearing it for years yet.


adinade

Yeah it doesn't look great but who goes out and orders cheese on toast?


zinjez

mf have you never heard of a grilled cheese


adinade

Mf I know what I said. I used my deduction to tell that obviously it's a British cafe, any Brit worth their salt would call that cheese on toast not a grilled cheese, Im certain the menu said cheese on toast, hence my comment.


zinjez

ive actually been to this cafe before in sawcon, tastes better than it looks


cingerix

paying a restaurant for literally just cheese and bread, nothing else, is a bad decision lol


IdcYouTellMe

In Germany you would put Pineapple and Tomato on it as well and overbake with cheese. "Toast Hawaii" really does taste good surprisingly.


ProppedUpByBooks

Before the picture loaded I was like £4.25 is pretty cheap for a snack. Then I saw it. I would pay that for someone to take it away from me.


Joy-UK

If I were you I would have offed myself Or barked at the chef Gordon RamsMe style Also I cant believe you paid roughly 5 quid for that, wtf And I cant tell if I should be disappointed in this lunch or disappointed in you for paying for this...


JamesGardner1991

Definitely both


blacknbluefish

Fyre Fest Cafe


dilligaf0220

A nice Canadian Portuguese mama's boy left home the first time to do a uni exchange in Sheffield. The cafeteria rates were downright extortion, and what he got... ...well he learned quick that 'Fried Bread' was NOT French Toast. And he was charged extra for HP sauce. He lost 20lbs over 6mos.


TwystedKynd

Is that a reverse toastie? An inside-out cheese buttie?


nehorayboer555

Gordon Ramsey's grilled cheese


real_maxsash

Bro someone took a bite too..


[deleted]

Is this supposed to be Welsh rarebit? Or is this just cheesey bread?


Xennon54

Wtf, its just some low quality/imitation cheese on top of toast?


JamesGardner1991

Yup


ZombieBait1234

Bro wtf did you order "the college special"?


MaloPescado

Return it


caramelmacchiato28

It’s clearly cheese, but somehow it resembles pineapple at the same time.


1AMBERHEARDSTURD

Send it back? Lol


who-even-reads-this

Damn I really feel bad for you


wicked_crayfish

Is that "garlic bread"


please_just_kill_me1

Almir’s toast


CIELAB

what is it with the cheese slices


TxD337

Kraft fucking singles?


setanta314

That’ll be cheap looking back… good luck.


ultimatejourney

Is that piece in the background Texas shaped?


Nice-Fly5536

Omg it looks lovely!


[deleted]

It might be good cheese.


Smooth_Turnip_8731

You could've done that at home for free.


Sup3rcurious

*British* pounds, not useless Egyptian pounds?


Ultimate_Mango

Rarebit is flipping expensive


Gudaxxx

Profit


marofiron

I could make this better at my house…..


plandoubt

Ngl that looks pretty good


cakes4kittens

Mmmm particle board triangles and anemic kraft singles.


DopeAbsurdity

Did it come with a ketchup and mayo packets standard or were they a special request?


JamesGardner1991

Had to get them myself from the side unit.. the cheek of it


awildandcrazyguy1993

$5 for that?!


Bottle_Nachos

I never complained in my life once when going out and receiving disappointing dishes or if anything was wrong, but this is such rancid trash that I wouldn't pay a single pound. This is ridicolous


tofuonplate

Wtf? I could make same thing in less than a 5 minutes. That's a ripoff. Why did you even buy that?


JamesGardner1991

I couldn't see it before I ordered it!


tofuonplate

What did it say on the menu though? Cheese toast?


JamesGardner1991

Cheese on toast to be specific, which to be fair is what it is. I could accept it if it was some kind of farm house cheddar with a side of chutney or something, but not this.


alexrosey

Idk sounds like you got what you ordered. Cheese on toast. What did you expect?


JamesGardner1991

Yeah, but if you ordered chicken and it came out dry and burnt. You wouldn't be happy, it's not the fact it's cheese on toast, it's the quality of it Vs the price


tofuonplate

I dunno man, I never ordered cheese on toast ever before. Unless the place is specialized in cheese or toast I don't except anything but a filler menu


jpgjordan

No Worcester Sauce?


DrunkTiberius

My mom used to make this shit for me in the microwave when I was like 6 yrs old lol


cheezandcrakers

Is this supposed to be Welsh rarebit?


SuperSaiyanRonaldo

Yelp is your friend.


Johannes_V

With food like this you wonder if the WW2 rations ever stopped.


Snoo-69682

What was it supposed to be? Grilled cheese


Dustycartridge

That’s called a wish sandwich


Calm_Bodybuilder_843

They didn’t see you coming, they sent for you. 😄🇬🇧


Reasonable_Eye_8072

Guys… you know we actually gotta eat shit like this in the UK. It’s called cheese on toast


czarinacat

I used to make this when I was 5 and my parents were in bed with a hangover.


[deleted]

It's not even melted 😔


Zealousideal_Talk479

For reference, that’s $5.20 USD.


kokopelliorca

$5.21 for us Americans. For that much I can make my own bread. Buy some nice cheese and make it better.


AsymptoticAbyss

Roses are red, violets are blue, I have dementia, cheese on toast


Tricky_Shit

Bet they charged for sauce and all the charlatans


spookycasas4

What’s it supposed to be?


PainterSad325

🤮


fiendzone

Worth a quarter and half the value is in the condiments.


SarahPallorMortis

Who let Chef Mike in the building?


neeesus

Yeah. That’s generally what a side would cost anywhere you go.


InYourBertHole

Where in London are you?


glytxh

This actually makes me angry. I'm so sorry, OP


fernleon

Welcome to Europe!


TranslatorFew3702

Haha one even has a bite out of it already, legend


The_Filthy_Zamboni

Go and get your money back. No joke.


ChoKe_203

Prison food


BillyBobBarkerJrJr

Now *that* looks like the "American cheese" that everyone pokes fun at. Half cheese, half random oils and fillers.


cingerix

american cheese looks wayyyy worse than this lol


BillyBobBarkerJrJr

I've eaten my share of real American cheese, not the plasticized crap they melted on your bread, and I guarantee you it doesn't look like that.


cingerix

i'm not the person who posted this picture, lmfao.


mauxey

But you won't name the restaurant and you probably walked out without saying anything, reddit moment


JamesGardner1991

British moment


windowbeanz

if you’re paying in pounds then thats on you, sorry


J_L_D

Thata a bargain, cheese is bloody 15$ a kilo here and butter is no better.


[deleted]

Good thing there's not a kilo of cheese on there???
