One of the most hilarious (and disgusting) scenes in all of Friends [1] history has to be in "The One Where Ross Got High" when Rachel (Jennifer Aniston [2]) attempts to make dessert for everyone on Thanksgiving. Due to two pages of her cookbook getting stuck together, she accidentally whips up half a dessert dish and half a meat dish, and voila: the infamous meat trifle is born [3]. The "dessert" consists of lady fingers, jam, custard, raspberries, beef, sauteed peas and onions, bananas, and whipped cream, and if you're a masochist you've always wanted to try it for yourself, a London restaurant is bringing the questionable meal to life. Yes, really!
British online food delivery service Deliveroo [4] is re-creating Rachel's masterpiece — dubbed "The Meat and Sweet Trifle" — at its Regina Phalange pop-up restaurant in the UK to mark the anniversary of the last episode of Friends, which aired on May 6, 2004. The dish is being made available for £6 ($8), which is a small price to pay to prove you're the ultimate fan of the long-running NBC comedy. And hey, even if you're a vegetarian, you can still give it a try: an alternate version of the trifle uses mince tofu instead of beef.
Are you brave enough to try it? Whether you're already based in London or you're furiously booking a plane ticket there as we speak, you only have a limited time to to try Rachel's epic snafu since it's currently on sale. The treat will only be available while stocks last, and you better hurry — Joey Tribbiani has probably already bought a few.
