Anyway, £70 for two cold chicken wings and a battered bit of tomato between us isn't good. As you can tell, I'm even sweaty about it now even though the ingress of time should have watered down the angst.
And then there's people who handle the food with their dirty little digits ..............
You hate FT DO's or buffets?
I used to like buffets but the older I have got the more warier I have become regarding the hygiene of them. I remember staying in a hotel in Brasil where they had an evening buffet. Unfortunately for us we timed our arrival into the dining room five minutes too late. As we entered we saw a school group swarming round it.......teenagers, lifting and putting back the food not caring which spoon they were using while bawling and shouting at the same time.God only knows how much saliva was being transferred from mouth to food.
I do still partake in some, usually only hotel breakfast ones though. I go early while it is fresh and kid free.
