Along_the_Wire Not enough Campo Viejo for young Grant!
A list of restaurants
Along_the_Wire had a decent ipa and negroni there last night, didn’t look at the wine options.
The Ernst and Gallo Zinfandel is a winner
The Hardys chardonnay also sensational.
I wouldn’t trust Grant, this is what he suggested I pair with sea bass…

He told me to pair my roast beef with a Beaujolais a few weeks ago.
Almost fell off my chair.
bosstrabs but you don’t get taken to a table and can order your chicken chow mien from chopstix and a baked potato with beans and cheese from spud u like, plus a negroni, all from one app and it gets bought to your table. No walking to each place individually and paying at each place separately.
RichM But it’s only a matter of time before that happens at a conventional food court (QR code scanning for orders from different vendors).
There are loads of these setups in malls here in Beijing, I give it about 6 months before places like the Arndale or Trafford Centre are doing the same.
Actually, for the UK being slow on the uptake with stuff like this, I would say it’s not that the technology’s not there, but people are a bit more resistant to embrace fully cashless, whereas people in Asia just seem to have no qualms whatsoever about doing everything through apps and digital wallets as convenience seems more important to them than all the data issues.
Thanks Dave.

Yes but people in Asia are also happy to pay to fuck 14 year olds and call it legal. Aren’t they David? Or maybe we are just slow on the uptake?
Oh Ian McBanter, he’s the bantiest Ian in toon!
Imagine if you got paying for minors and miners mixed up! You’d find yourself in a right old pickle.
Reckon you’d still indulge.
When do you create a sockpuppet to attack Smallman and log in and out of that and your regular account, conversing with yourself for a whole year again, Ian?
They do that in Locanda Locatelli.
Meant to be sensational by all accounts.
