This was fake nasty essence of and wasn't declared on the menu. I was expecting a light refreshing taste of lemon and all I could taste was fake ginger :evil:

Interesting. The fast gathering opinion of our new Itai boy is that he's absolutely full of shit. Further evidence here, maybe?

Might be just me - couple of mates went the week before and were raving about it. I was judging it against Puccini's and thought it was a fair distance off. Oh and my steak came on a piece of wood...

I took my niece and nephew out the other day and gave them the choice. Sadly it was the Red Lion at Four Lane Ends for its Wacky Warehouse.
The steak on my mixed grill came on a plate... but looked and tasted like a piece of wood. fecking dreadful place.

Just had a tuna steak served on a hot lava rock. This is great for me as it means I get to eat the slices of tuna exactly as I like them (seared edges - barely touched inside).

So you're the punter who buys that stuff!

As an aside, it costs about £5 a day to keep those hot rocks hot (it's a long an uninteresting story, but you can't heat them up quickly, or that hot in an oven, so you need a specialist one that keeps them very hot all the time in the off-chance that the one punter a week that eats off them can have them). That'd be 35 of your English pounds a week. Before the cost of the food. Not that it irritated me enough to do my research to show how pointless they are!
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Well, it's either that or wait for you 4uckers to get your fingers out. ;)

And anyway, you've probably spent more than that on mini shopping trollies, gardening trowels and clogs!
