(upbeat music)
- [Narrator] We are Sorted,
a group of mates, from London,
exploring the newest and best
in the world of food.
Whilst trying to have a few laughs along the way.
We've got chefs,
We've got normal,
and a whole world of stuff for you to explore
that everything we do, starts with you.
(upbeat music)
- Hello everyone, I'm Mike and this is Jamie.
- And this is a copy of our latest cookbook, A.M. Menu
which is full of some of the most innovative
and delicious breakfast recipes I've ever seen.
And I've eaten quite a few breakfasts in my time.
- And if you'd like to buy a copy, you can!
It's now available to everyone.
And to celebrate this, I took James and Barry
on a very special surprise breakfast.
(lighthearted music)
- I mean I really wanna say this is
(bleep)
messed up, I can't
(bouncy music)
- So we've just had breakfast 100 feet in the air
dangling from a crane.
- Not knowing that we were going to do beforehand
Thanks, Mike.
- Are you okay with heights?
- [Camera Man] Not really.
(men laughing)
[Barry] When Mike said meet me at North Bridge for breakfast
I was thinking "okay, this is gonna be
some sort of unusual dish"
- I thought it was gonna be weird and wonderful
- Yeah
- It kinda was weird and wonderful
But not about the food.
- And straight away, you're with welcomed open arms.
- And then, they strapped us in, to a table
(employee explains what to do)
[Barry] You get strapped in all tight around the edge.
You can't move whatsoever.
Which is, I suppose, a safety feature
- Do you wanna push in closer?
- Okay.
I do the same thing when I strap my baby into his car seat.
[Barry] Your legs dangling, you're swinging
and the whole thing starts to spin.
- I can't stop looking down.
[James] And you have a little bit of time
to enjoy the experience.
- [Barry] Mhm
- [James] And then they serve you a little bit of food.
Okay listen, I have a theory that
[James] the higher up you go, the worse the food is.
80% of the time, that's true.
This particular experience, doesn't really fit
that rule.
I mean there's limited space,
there's limited equipment that you can have up there.
So, to actually think through a menu
that you can cook on the ground,
take up,
and serve with the same quality,
very difficult.
- The food, looks great!
- Hi! My Name's Zack and I'm a Sorted subscriber
and I work on board one of these as a cocktail bartender.
So, behind me, the tents that you can see.
That's where the food gets prepped.
All our food gets prepped, literally everyday,
they come in, the chefs come in,
a massive group of chefs come in everyday
and they make the food
(stuttering)
daily for the flights going up.
- When the food came out, we had three different dishes.
The first you get in front of you are
some beautiful, little dainty pastries.
And the best thing about it is that
if you get crumbs down you, it doesn't matter,
you just brush 'em off.
Let 'em float a hundred feet down.
- I mean, the first thought is
croissants are really hard to eat in the sky.
(inaudible)
The food looks good.
I'm just waiting to be told that I'm allowed to eat it
By you, mate.
- [James] The eggs benedict, was an eggs benedict.
They didn't really compromise too much.
What more would you say about it.
Like, they did a good job.
I thought the pancakes were really delicious.
Loads of whipped cream, loads of syrup,
some really nice caramelized almonds.
It was good.
- There's this kinda awkward
- The eating was somewhat restrictive.
- It was.
- Yeah, it was a little bit restrictive.
(Barry laughs)
I don't know what I was expecting, but,
I didn't feel that exposed to the height or anything.
I'm going, I'm going, Oh!
Oh, it goes really far.
Oh, it goes really far!
(laughter)
It was fine, I dangled my feet off the floor,
and it kinda lived up to all the
expectations I had as soon as I saw it.
- And it delivered on exactly what I thought it would.
[Barry] It's an unusual experience,
It's a great way of seeing London.
The only thing that freaked me out a little bit
was everybody else around us,
who was doing it for the 'gram
and getting those photos that I've seen around.
That, I found an odd sensation.
- Everybody was just taking selfies.
It wasn't about the food at all.
It's just a totally different dining experience.
- But, we did get to be a part of somebody's special day.
Celebrating their birthday.
- At this restaurant experience,
you are a captive audience.
(people singing happy birthday)
I need to unstrap myself,
I need to leave.
- [Camera Man] Sing!
- I need to leave.
It's expensive, but it's not something you'd do everyday.
And it's not necessarily something you'd do
in your own city.
- No, I think if you're going somewhere
on a holiday,
and you're already spending a lot of money,
then, I could see why you'd add this
to a list of things you'd wanna do.
(mumbling)
When it's on your doorstep, it's a little bit different.
- Overall, what better way to
start a morning,
as a surprise, than get taken for breakfast
up a crane.
I loved it!
- It's weird being back on solid ground again.
It's actually quite a relief
I've got a fantastic new Instagram post.
- And, it's a good surprise
- Yeah, thank you, Mike.
- Thanks, Mike.
- Can we get more like this, this is good,
less horrible things.
- [Cameraman] Great!
