Well why not? :lol:

Fucking useless! The food was pretty good, if a bit dubious in presentation, but the service and waiting times...........it was almost as if the guy that runs the place watched Fawlty Towers as a business model and scaled back the customer care. Avoid like the plague unless you want a good night fucked up :thumb:

On the other hand, for fine dining you should try the Mulberry Tree. They have a varied menu and will stun you with their deserts.

The best desert I have found to date was at the Pride of Lincoln Pub in ... you guessed it .... Lincoln :D

It was the "Curly wurly mega thingy" (actual name on the menu)

It was humungous :D It is supposed to be shared between 2 people but fook that. I had the whole thing to myself. Much to the disgust of Sarah and the kids who kept trying to pinch some. I will see if I can find a pic of it somewhere.

I second the Mulberry tree, very good food. Bit posh nosh for you though Stu !!!!

Mint mountains....now they were ace ! I agree, getting smaller everytime.

We (Em and I) went to Fatsos on the Salhouse road (used to be Tommy Ts), the food was ace, very similar to Zaks. If you fancy a nice burger and a plate full of curly fries you cant do wrong going there.

With regards to the Indian food I work with loads of them and have to smell what they cook themselves at lunchtimes everyday so the last thing I fancy is an Indian when going out. Smell of curries day in day out is a tad overpowering. Nazma was always good in Prince of Wales road though.

Now I'm a specialist in fine cuisine ... I probably eat out 4 times a week - Jo and I like cooking but we also line proper meals.

1. The Last Wine Bar - Fantastic - but avoid on a Sat as prices are almost double.
2. Loch Fyne - Love it
3. Zizi's - mmmmh big thumbs
4. Stones - another ace place
5. Torrero's - very good - great value
6. Ali Tandori - Best indian in norwich
7. Benalong Thai - Ace food, ace service :)
8. Cafe Uno - cheap food!
9. Indulge - bloody great food and great value

I could go on ... :) - but I won't ...
