    Default Taco Slot / Taco What?

    I was going to post this when it happened, last July.
    But due to loosing Guy i never did.
    So here we go.
    I was looking around on google for things about Taco Slot, and came across something called Tacoyaki.
    Found out it was Food my favorite subject.
    Checked it out on Youtube and it looked great, So i had to have one.
    I got the cooker from japan 25 GBP including postage, a great price
    Then i found out that i can't use one of my transformers to run it as it was 650 watt.
    So back to ebay got a transformer went a bit higher for safety and ordered 800 watt.
    They didn't have 800 watt so sent me 1,000 watt for the same price 85 GBP
    (Told the wife it was a tenner)
    But now we were ready to roll.
    Got all the goodies that i needed to cook them, Guy and i had Aprons on, and it was all systems go
    They were foul, One of the worst things i have ever tasted (And i will eat anything)

    Guy Pi**ed his pants laughing, 110 quid down the pan.
    (We have changed the recipe a bit and now have something good to eat)
    Just thought this would Entertain you for a bit.

    In Nottingham we have lots of food stores Japanese Chinese etc it's great.
    The cooking show is called ''Cooking With Dog'' this is not one of the ingredients, I think.
