We would also like suggestions for items on a special world cup menu we will have available during the mornings and early evening replays & highlights.
Easy and quick national themed dishes and suchlike.
 
Looking forward to your feedback.

Australian dishes should be liberally studded with lots of sprigs of mint, served over donkey hooves.

Croque-monsieur (possibly with an egg) for a simple French dish.

Mum-boxhead makes this, can ask her for a recipe if needed. There's also quite a few online ones.

They're basically sausages made of mince, with a few spices added in, most commonly grilled (usually on charcoa) and served with a flat bread, onions/kajmak (kind of sour cream)/ajvar (type of relish). The ajvar version is the most common in Serbia I believe.

Something South African could be Pap en Sous with boerewors, have some biltong on the bar, milktart, koeksisters, bunny chow ... you can google all that.

NZ equivalent is the red soup after the saveloys have been taken out.
 
N Korea doesn't have saveloys but.

Humble Pie for Oz?
 
Maybe a Chinese dish for England:  sweet, then sour and after awhile you feel like it wasn't enough.

Failing that, a full English fry-up.

Probably stating the obvious a bit too muc here, but tacos, crepes, souvlaki, waffles, bratwurst, hash cakes and danishes all appeal to me.

For breakfast - egg, bacon, and sausage roll...priced at around $8 would be nice!
 
$15 for bacon and eggs was always a bit steep I though, alas nice tasting!

Despite what "people" have said in the latest white noise email i will remind people we are open for all 6:30am live kickoffs.

The All Whites games will also be replayed via My-sky at 6:30am on the 16th, 21st and 25th on a separate big screen from the live games, for those who want the sleep and can sneak in before work.

Sorry UG.

I gave the Bencher a shout-out at least.
The shout was appreciated, but the message that we weren't open probably did more harm than good.

I have just been told we are staying open late on Tuesday night for the AW Vs Slovakia match.

For the last round of group games I assume you will have both games going just in different areas. I would rather watch Germany vs. Ghana than Australia vs. Serbia
