McDonalds is trialling “up market” dinner dishes around Newcastle soon, with a view to rolling them out around Australia next year.  The meals to be available are:

  • lemongrass chicken
  • beef rendang
  • orange, lime and ginger chicken
  • beef bolognese.

McDonald's is testing Thai and pasta dishes alongside its burgers<br />and fries.” align=”middle” /></div>
<p>All come with <a href=penne pasta, which strikes me as an interesting choice - I would have thought rice for all bar the bolognese.  Pasta is obviously easier to heat up and keep warm in bulk than rice, or harder to screw up.  I suspect these things will be like pre-made frozen meals heated up in the microwave.  Can’t see myself rushing out to get one.  Anyway, I don’t go to Maccas to eat healthy … I go for junk.  If I want proper food I’ll cook it at home, or go to a proper restaurant.

How lame are some of those frozen meals?  I see spaghetti bolognese, and think I could make myself a home cooked batch in not much longer than the time it takes to microwave a frozen one.
