Smallman1 bosstrabs Are you going to Lassiters to meet Joe Mangel for squash later? Snr managed Stefan Dennis back in the day. Tru fax!
Mad_Cyril bosstrabs The type of place Northerners would go to. i find it highly unlikely that there are any of us stupid / pretentious enough to pay 5 sovs for eggs fried rice Dave.
bosstrabs Mad_Cyril I don’t know MC, have you been to Warrington? Nouveaux riches central. The Turkey Teeth mob in leased Range Rovers would be all over it.
rhouses Did the six course tasting menu at Le Du in Bangkok last week, the monsoon menu. Was more than happy with the overall experience and the food was spectacular with 14 dishes. Did not regret skipping the wine pairing, as my friend and I had three varieties of marijuana between some courses. https://www.ledubkk.com/
Smallman1 ’Don’t suppose you could rustle up another 8 courses could you, those 6 barely touched the sides?'
rhouses Was getting confused when all the filler dishes were happening and tbf they were all one bites and one was a palate cleanser. They did give us three desserts, but only called out one of them on the menu.
whatever Smallman1 Ate here last night - https://kricket.co.uk/ Not bad! Looks decent that. Was it the Soho restaurant and a swift half down Old Compton Street afterwards?
Mad_Cyril Had a splendid lunch here yesterday, the fish bit of the menu = whatever he’s caught in the morning, grilled over a wood flame. Went for the Sea Bass. Was tremenballs. Some pics here (not a Sea Container in sight) https://www.google.com/search?si=ACC90nwpRDr_RQyr2hFK8D8JiptlSQg19Fma6Lmcd9znW1fJUt9iqkSmgNOen4lgHgYxBaaBfUiMWh7OPwGLZTLy-8Qfem-iGsvhnrk2rYDESKKQkpEGSkOlQ3x2ysV3_OGz6dcNDEmS&hl=en-TR&q=ada+restoran+photos&shndl=30&shem=lsde,vslcca&source=sh/x/loc/osrp/m5/3&kgs=596ed118476efa0b#lpg=cid:CgIgAQ%3D%3D
Mad_Cyril Dubman Exactly, was a great reminder how much of a bollocks most of the commercialised / fad ‘restaurants’ are back in the UK. We’ll be going back frequently whilst still out here.
bosstrabs Mad_Cyril MC, check out this absolute dump in Chester… https://www.theguardian.com/food/2023/jul/30/jay-rayner-restaurant-review-the-botanist-chester-i-should-say-wow (and, I think, they have them in other locations should you see the need to go)
Dubman bosstrabs That looks almost as bad as Bella Italia. It looked quite rustic inside when I delivered a coffee machine to one of their restaurants in Southampton. I asked whether they make all their own sauces etc. Was told by the manager it all comes big tubs and they just reheat it.
Mad_Cyril bosstrabs Jay needs a good fucking hiding, as do all the vapid food tourists who hang on his every word.
