I had an 8-course menu at Michelin-starred one-armed 'celebrity' chef Michael Caines' place in Devon once.
His food is over-seasoned* and really rather poor.


Not a lot of people know that.


*afterwards I spewed up all over the croquet lawn. I am a class act.

You should have blown his bloody doors off.

Was the spewing caused by the food, or the booze and MDs in the kharzi?

It was my father's 60th - he selected different wines for each course and I'd spent the afternoon in the pub.
'go figure', as I believe our American cousins so aptly put it.

Hahaha! Ruining a landmark birthday too - well played.
I'll still give Gidleigh Park a go at some point, over-seasoned food or not.

It's a beautiful place to stay, it really is.
However there are gastropubs within a short drive in which you can get a better meal for a tenth of the price. It's so fucking salty you end up drinking like a fish to counteract it.

So you see it was that bounder Caines's fault I was sick, your honour.

Points off for the use of 'gastropubs' Monty you dreadful flid.

oh sorry I should have used the infinitely easier term
'dining pubs, you know the ones where the focus is on sit-down meals as opposed to drinking, you know, those ones'. I apologise.
