Sticky Ribs, Duck Fajitas, Americana: A regrettable visit to T.G.I Friday's
2/20/2020
22:30
Rounding up Season 3 in ... style, Sam and Taylor opt out of a tour of London's hippest taco spots and instead revel in nostalgia and all things Americana. T.G.I Friday's is a rite of passage for many teenagers, but why do people continue to visit the establishment past-puberty? Is the food amazing? Are the cocktails out of this world? Are the servers world class? The answer to all the above is no. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Officially back in London town and hot off their appearance on Apple Podcasts' carousel, Taylor and Sam return to the Set Meals studio. An anniversary dinner sees Taylor recounting his experience at Columbia Road's 'Brawn', as well as some questionable decisions in a festive North London cafe. Meanwhile, Sam's trip to 'Four Legs' makes the boy's joint effort to move plan-based all the more tricky. Speaking of plant-based, this week's restaurant section pits Neil Rankin's Brick Lane-based 'Simplicity Burger' against New York's much-famed 'Superioirty Burger' - coincidence? The boys think not.
