A friend of mine went into The Counter on Suffolk street recently and they made him a 2 pound burger. It looked like something from MVF when it came from the kitchen!!!

I think that Spur Steakhouse in Liffey Vally have a 64 ounce piece of cow that you have to eat in an hour. If you do, its free. If you don't, its 60 yoyos.

I can barely eat a half pounder nowadays (no problem in my late teens or early 20's) so can't imagine how anyone could eat what is the equivalent of 4 half pounders. Could your friend eat the lot of it?

Nope, that was just a rumour.

This isn't the fault of the server, it was the fault of the chef. Please direct your first world anger in the right direction.

Im directing it at the server as she said it was pink because it was baby meat, she didn't even say baby cow meat and even that would of been stupid,because a baby cow is a calf...

I read this in the voice of the black kid from Malcolm in the Middle.

Not meaning to critise anyone directly but am I the only one who is completely lost?

What's the point in eating that much food? I mean is there actually a sense of achievement in eating an stupid calorific loaded meal? Or does the mindless gluttony just turn people on??

Not a chance, I think he got about half-way

In Ireland, burgers should always be well done, a city centre restaurant was reprimanded for serving rare burgers

Its the fault of neither, its a management issue imho. Staff aren't trained well enough either front or back of house.

A lot of things people enjoy don't have a point.

It's test of physical endurance. Can a person get X amount of food into their bodies in a set amount of time without throwing up, passing out or just giving up. It's not quite the same thing as trying to swim the English Channel without drowning or dying from hypothermia, but its in the same ball park. If you remove the political correctness (or lack thereof) of it for a sec, people are always going to be drawn to watching that kind of thing.

I hear some cafe on camden st just passed ulsterbank has imported a load of ghost chillies and the chef is trying to make the hottest sauce in Ireland for his wings.

First, you need to justify the unhealthy, disquisting, and pointless opinion you've formed as it was you that first posted it.

Are people that ignorant, that they have to try enforce their own opinions on other people...........

Drinking, smoking, recreational drug-taking (or whatever you want to call it), extreme sports - all have potentially negative impacts on our health - but this isn't the forum to discuss them either.

The OP wants to find eateries in the Dublin area that have challenges. If you can't advise him - don't bother posting. Take your issues to Humanities.

Its not healthy, But if i died chowing down on some of the stuff Adam Richman does id die happy and with a full stomach, there is worse ways to go...

This thread is obviously not for you or anyone that is going to moan about eating healthy

I just went onto google street view and had a gawk....................its called Yum Yums

Enjoy!!

skeleton_boy

Other than challenges do you guys know places that off alternatives to your standard burger and chip fast food in Dublin? Places similar to KCs in Cork?

Ikiru

i havent forced my opinion, i expressed it like everyone else.
you attacked me, thats enforcing opinion, well not opinion, rage more like it.

its unhealthy because there is a limit of red meat a human is supposed to consume daily (at any age) in order to be healthy

its disqusting because i watched the show and a 200 pound man covered in sauce and cheese is definately not a nice sight, its demeaning for him and insulting to me.

and its pointless because the stomach has a capacity and after reaching it (or massivelt surpassing) you can create at least 4 major problems to your general health.

please demonstrate your ignorance and hatred to somebody who cant answer back because you bore me with those weak come backs

Ikiru

i will moan if i want to here and everywhere else, i dont understand why i have to explain it. its a forum people, not your living room!!!
