    I must be, can you specify what creature you tried to swallow?

    Vaguely? Flesh or feather and beak? What did your company eat? And where and what is this place called.

    Chicken flesh - with some rather tasty crispy skin. The Double Star Cafe in Admiralty. Mr Min07 had the same, except he went for the leek soup rather than minestrone.

    Paul

    Stop being such a snob.

    Plenty of decent places that will serve food in the price range that Moving quoted.

    Spaghetti House, Ruby Tuesdays, Outback.

    I do not like local food at all. But I enjoy great set lunches every day for around $50-$100. Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian.....

    $100 is on the expensive side for lunch, Paul. Geez, what kind of places do you go to?

    Spaghetti House? I'm no food snob but the couple of times I ate there it was just horrible.

    Well DeletedUser you should start a weekly account of your eating establishments (habits) cause I'm tired of paying more than 300$ for one. That's a fact.
    True I often need a few glasses of smooth red especially at that time of day but still I will subtract that as a personal necessity and do as you say.

    Well done and thanks.

    We don't have to all tighten our belts after all. Good on you.

    Im nothing of the sort. In fact I could lay naked in a field in Provence and without moving still dig up a 5star dinner for two for nothing but a few buckshot wounds up the jacksie and one horrible mess to sort out at the pedicurist. I dig with my feet.

    Na Im not, not at all, I love food good simple food. Problem all of that is imported, I spent 2000$ just on tappas the other night, and all I got was street food from Spanish pubs
