Mad_Cyril Bit harsh on Ed there!

Mind you, I could totally see Ed paying £7.50 for posh cheese on toast, sans fromage (natch).

      It was good. Snr picked up the bill.

      Smallman1 I am going to guess the feedback will be massively overpriced. £25 for fish and chips!!

          That’s about right for that part of the world and a Jeremy King restaurant.

          Smallman1

          23 quid for celery marmalade and a duck in a dickie bow?

          None of that nonsense in Belfast. We’re up our tits in curry chips and chicken baguettes.

            RichM £25 for fish and chips!

            Its Fishes and Chipsies Rich

              Smallman, if you’re going to set yourself up as some kind of board restaurant critic, can you give us a few sentences of actual meaningful content once in a while, you daft fucking spaz?

                Smallman1 Went there in its previous iteration as Le Caprice in the 1990’s? Think its trading on the nostalgia of that era and doubt much will be different.

                    Along_the_Wire Yep, I’d put it in the same genre as Sexy Fish or that Nusr-Et Steakhouse place.

                      bosstrabs Every country has rank dishes Dave. Even your beloved China. And Im not sure if Irish dishes are actually worse than English ones.

                      Is coddle worse than jellied eels for example?

                          seanc80 Really, I just mean the shitness of the average town and its offerings.

                          One has to admit, Northern Europe is generally bleak in that regard.

                          Could I go down any street in Limerick, Stoke-on-Trent or Joensuu and expect a guaranteed decent meal? Could I fuck.

                          Could I go down any street in Italy, France, China or Japan and find a genuinely good, affordable restaurant? Probably.

                          No offence intended, it’s a pretty accurate assessment I reckon.

                            I do have to laugh at the absolute fucking state of the street food craze. The point of street food is that it was cheap and representative of food you can buy from street vendors in Asia. There’s a couple of places on my High St. - one a Sri Lankan ‘street food’ restaurant (now closed) that was charging £6.50 for egg fried rice 5 years ago.

                            The other is a Lebanese ‘Street Food’ restaurant which took over from the Lebanese restaurant that it bought. The chefs and menu are exactly the same as before, except where you used to get a whole poussin you now only get a half and pay £3 more for it.

                            Street food - big swing of my Mickey as Fadas used to say. PBUH

                            Irish street food? Lol. Seriously. THEY’RE TAKING THE FUCKING PISS, LADS.
