We had a nice little meal in the local last nite, nothing special, but acceptable. Overcharged for the wine, but they corrected it that even though they had actually served the more expensive one.

See personally, I feel it is less about the food and more about the company. If it is just Mr Wench and I then yes, food is important but to be honest if it is a large group of friends then the price of the wine is the most important thing and it has to be cheap!

No but we don't tend to drink as much and so the quality of food is important as you can actually be bothered.

Smokey candles are not a health risk apparently.  shrugs: Although I'm suprised that health and safety would allow such a thing.

Curly Fries (also Curly De Vries) were early stage names used by Shirley Temple before the rise of Hitler and the National Socialist party in the '30s.
