Buffet or Restaurant

Gill — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 08:33:03 +0000

When planning o have a meal out of the home with friends and family, you have the choice between attending a restaurant for a full 3 course meal and choosing to go to a buffet where you will have a variety of different dishes and foods to help your taste buds.

Generally, a restaurant will be more tasty but far more expensive and will leave you almost pennyless as compared to a buffet as a one cost to all will allow you to eat as much as possible.

Even then, you will be paying more at a buffet as you are not really going to eat 50 kebabs etc!

Worlds most expensive restaurant…

Gill — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 08:28:21 +0000

Do you know what the world’s most expensive restaurant is? It is based in the heart of Tokyo and although a restaurant, it’s not like your usual restaurant (Obviously!). So what’s different?

It’s the most expensive in the world
You have to book 6 months in advance to get an evenings seating! Whoa - I don’t think most of you can wait that long!
The restaurant has only one table… Yes, your read correctly, only one table! This probably explains the 6 month booking time.

So, would you consider it worth it to fly from the other side of the world to eat at this one restaurant and fly back the same or next day?

Where should you rent retail space?

Gill — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 08:37:19 +0000

New retail businesses often come to a dilemma as to where they should purchase and rent retail space – In the centre of town or somewhere just outside town (probably near a busy local area).

This choice depends entirely on your business and products your have for sale. are your products such that they are used more in the home and are general every items? If so, then the centre of town is not for you.

If you have more unique items for sale which have unique uses then the town is probably for you!

Do you agree and not? Maybe…

£50 for a single meal for 1 person?

Gill — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 13:13:03 +0000

This morning at work my colleagues were discussing food and how much they would pay for a meal during a trip to a restaurant. One person mentioned they paid over £50 for a meal for one person which wasn’t even that great. I mean £50!! In my opinion it’s a total rip off.

I mean in the end of the day it’s only food for one person which isn’t anything too special. I’m sure my local takeaway would do me a better meal for a fiver!

What do you think? Do you agree with me or have you spent even more?

Most well presented restaurants are rubbish

Many people choose between restaurants by the way they look and how they present themselves. Unfortunately, this does mean their is a high chance of their being some going-ons which you would definitely not approve but at the same time you won’t know this isd happening.

Just watch some of these undercover programs on the television which go behind the scenes undercover and uncover the great amount of disgusting going-ons.

A more smaller restaurant or takeaway where are generally more safer when it comes to food but even then, you have to choose the right area in the UK otherwise you might be eating something other than your order…

Eva Longoria Parker wants to do reality show about her Beso restaurant

Brad — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 10:15:20 +0000

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria Parker already has TV success, but she apparently wants her restaurant chain Beso to be a part of it.

The actress has spoken about the launch of a new reality show project, revolving around her restaurant. Beso, which has locations in both Las Vegas and Hollywood, serves up glamorous cocktails and exciting Latin-infused food under the watchful eye of celebrity chef Todd English. There is also an exclusive nightclub attached.

Eva has described the concept of the show, saying:

“It will follow the employees that work at my restaurant,”

“I’m not in it that much. I’m married and old now.”

The best pie pub in London?

Gill — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:28:11 +0000

Having personally experienced the fantastic pie offerings at The Crown Pub in Soho (situated on Brewer Street), I believe that it will be tough to find another place in London that’s as good. If anyone reading this can offer up a competitor, I’d be delighted to hear it.

The reason I think The Crown puts up such a good fight for the unofficial title of ‘Best Pie Pub in London’ is that they are a speciality establishment. Everything you could ever want from a pie is there – soft, buttery pastry, rich, meaty gravy, plenty of filling and some cheesy mash and vibrant green veg on the side; – and there’s even lots of veggie options. Some of the pies even had turrets!

With reasonable prices and a cosy, down-to-earth pub atmosphere (despite being right in the middle of trendy Soho), The Crown Pub is a must-visit for any pie fanciers in the area.

Sinatra, Barcelona

Brad — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 16:22:18 +0000

On a trip to Barcelona a couple of years ago, myself and my travelling companions for some reason struggled to find somewhere to eat one evening. A place we all agreed on that is. Tired of the dithering, a couple of us popped in to trendy-looking restaurant Sinatra, in the centre of Barcelona off of Plaza Reial.

After a tiny wait and a drink in the lounge/bar section, we were seated upstairs. I can’t remember exactly what we had (being a number of years ago now), but it was fairly fine dining for such a cosy, casual place. They also change the menu frequently I believe, to keep things fresh for regular customers.

Courses were light, tasty yet plentiful in number, the service was friendly and unpretentious and the price was unbelievable – more than three delicious courses and a bottle wine later and we were only down about £20 each!

Simply put, Sinatra is a must-visit for anyone planning a trip to Barcelona this summer.

Bawadi: the hidden Lebanese gem of Manchester City Centre

Jamie — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 16:27:33 +0000

Manchester does pretty well when it comes to fine cuisine; there are some fabulous restaurants in the city centre. An undiscovered gem – which I am fairly reluctant to tell you about lest it becomes too popular – is Bawadi, a Lebanese cafe and restaurant on Cheetham Hill Road within spitting distance of the Green Quarter.
