Mad_Cyril -si- I hope the omission of the word goujons after chicken was a test for us all, mc. Are they like posh nuggets or more like turkey twizzlers?
hugopal zackster Has anyone been to his London spot yet? I am completely fascinated by this man. zackster is gagging for some of Saltbae’s tenderloin.
RichM Fair play to him, he has created a weird persona, open restaurant which serves very average food, and charges sky high prices. And there are loads of cunts who lap it up and makes him wealthy. It’s a strange old world.
jonattonyeah RichM That’s how I feel about it. Seems like a good promoter of his nonsense so good on him. Why would I care.

ScottBailey Smallman1 wrong end of Chinatown, Ed. Golden Dragon at the other end for the win. If you fancy Dim Sum at anytime, I’ll treat ya 😉
bosstrabs Smallman1 It looks decent but two things: Jay Rayner knows absolutely fuck all about Chinese food. Sichuan is perhaps the least interesting (but, yes, currently trendy) of the ‘eight famous styles’ of Chinese cuisine, given that a lot of it is simply overpoweringly spicy. I find Hunanese more interesting, because it’s spicy but also allows you to taste other important parts of food, such as the ingredients.
Along_the_Wire Fuck me, the missus has started getting recommendations from her mates and I’m under tremendous pressure to actually have to go one one them on Saturday - the absolutely bang-average Polpo in Soho. The wine list is awful. I hope she learns a very harsh lesson.
hugopal Along_the_Wire also Trullo’s in Islington and wasn’t it you who said you hated Islington for some reason?
