Bloody typical that when I turn up you weren't there. Anybody might think you were trying to avoid meeting Clan Gremlin. :lol:

I'd say we'll try to arrange something next time we come for dinner at the restaurant, but I've already sold one kidney on eBay to fund that visit and I really do need to keep the other one. :o


Here's a challenge: bet you couldn't poncify a London Cheesecake and elevate it to fine dining levels. :P
Just give me notice and chances are I’ll be there

Also challenge accepted

Eating them almost seems a shame? Just sit and look at them for a while would be ok :D

To eat at his gaff is an experience. Expensive, granted, but you'll be dead one day. The attention to detail is soooo granular, to the point that a padded stool was provided so that Mrs. G.'s handbag was in arm's reach and not touching the floor.
Amd who doesn't love the drama of crepe suzette prep'd at the table?
If you go, dress smart. Unlike Phil Collins, a jacket IS required, and all the better for it, IMHO.

Shame he was hiding behind the doors of the kitchen mouthing 'I'm not here!' when we rocked up. ;)

Slice of Mother's Pride, McCain oven chips with a dollop of Heinz ketchup or artisan sourdough and triple cooked chips with a tomato compote? I bet it ain't the former. :lol:
