I was recently visited by Zanthar, the Lord Commander of the space langoustine invasion fleet. His fleet was situated on the far side of the moon making preparation to attack our world and harvest us as a food source. I know, scary right?
Anyway he visited me after I replied to a rather unusual personal ad in the local paper, an ad which referenced a penchant for seafood, lazy days sifting sand and a sincere disdain for ammonia.
Anyway I digress, as we were conversing Zanthar stated in his rather arresting accent that he would require feeding, the choice was to take him somewhere or feed him my dog. I like my dog.
Well the hour was late and choices were limited, I therefore took him to Real BBQ and Bar. He was confused by the idea of a menu as on their ship they usually just feed on a protein and nutrient supplement suspended in a bowl of silt.
After swimming around in a nice cool glass of Efes beer for a few moments he leapt upon some freshly prepared Chicken and Kofta lamb, tearing into the meat with great abandon he devoured this in very little time.
"MORE!" he yelled at me in his scratchy voice, "I must sample more!"
I ordered some spicy Sucuk sausage, a real favourite of mine, once again he devoured this gleefully, his little eye stalks bulging in pure delight.
Three fillet steaks, a rack of lamb ribs, and a huge pile of donner meat later and finally, sitting recumbent, his belly distended and his little prawn aerials wiggling he demanded I take him back to his ship.
We spoke briefly on the journey home, he explained to me that our world was being looked at as a farm world for their species. However it was his belief that any species capable of creating such culinary delights truly deserved a place among the stars and their continued existence.
The moral here is three fold: Rashid and the guys at Real Barbecue and Bar make great food. Their restaurant saved all of us from annihilation. Langoustines are far more aggressive that you might...
Read moreI have gone in and collected food previously food is always good but ordering from just eat most recently the 2 hour wait for food that was supposed to be here in 40 mins was a joke. A call to the takeaway was not very helpful either. And when it did finally turn up half off the order was missing and it was stone cold as well as been squashed. Another call to the take away I was taken aback when I heard who I think to be the manager saying is it that C** again tell him I will just refund the chips. At which point I said that I will be bringing the whole lot back down to them now and they can give me a refund. I was about to leave when I was telephoned to advise there is no need to come down we will give you a full refund I am still waiting for the refund and have contacted my bank to try and get some help with this. When you spend £30 on a take away meal I would of thought you would.of hot a much better...
Read moreAwful experience. Ordered via JUSTEAT yesterday, paid upfront. Called and asked if it could be delivered any earlier, told no. Waited till my time slot, no delivery. Called up again to be told rudely that their JUSTEAT driver had not turned up. No one bothered to call us and tell us or even go about cancelling the order. I had to call up myself to check where the food is; only when I demanded a refund was I given one. What were they planning on doing? Hoping that I wouldn’t call so they could pocket the money. The guy on the phone blamed JUSTEAT and said they are merely a kitchen and its JUSTEATS driver that has failed to turn up…. Sorry the drivers don’t belong to JUSTEAT. The drivers are part of the restaurant! And WHY accept the order if you have no one to deliver it!!!!!...
