Egg bacon chips and beans is not just a printed-out version of www.eggbaconchipsandbeans.com because the publishers said that would be unacceptable, although it would have been much easier. As well as the jokey and unhelpful reviews of seemingly random cafes (nothing in the Lake District? Really?) there are odd little essays about the most minute of cafe matters - the shapes and sizes of condiments, cafe art, misspellings and endless descriptions of the same meal. Along with badly taken photos mostly shot with a first generation camera phone. It's obviously brilliant.
