My wife and I are eating at the newly renovated Saddleroom Grill right before the hockey game. Pretty pricey but, hey I'm on a date with my wife. Will post back on the quality of food. We both ordered the pre fixe menu for $46 pp.

Had a great dinner at a hospital of all places.

Funny, I had a nice breakfast in a hospital this morning. 3 topping omelet, California rolls, veggie plate and a cup of tea.

Update: We had the best and most tender poached halibut tonite finished off in broth, mussels and prawns. A fantastic dish. Appetizer was a duck tasting dish, and the dessert a strawberry souffl�.

Went to the pop up dinner at One Leicester Street last night where the former team from Viajante cooked and mingled. Very good experience but unfortunately undersubscribed. Only 11 people present. For the price, �88 all inclusive of food and drinks, it was really a bargain.

Just want to add a PS that this was an amazingly good experience and that it will continue on certain days until May. It's a communal dining experience - everybody sits at one table and you can't help but get to know each other over the course of the evening. It's a very intimate experience and by the end of the evening (after much drinking) most everybody ended up in the bar together. During the meal the chef and his team come out to discuss every course and make small talk.

Here is a link, by the way.

You know that Gordon Ramsey Royal Hospital Road isn't a hospital, right?

Today I ate at Jen'es in Koh Tao in Thailand. Their chicken massaman curry is about �2 and is one of the best things I've ever eaten.

Scrambled eggs with sausage and provolone cheese and a couple slices of buttered toast and a strawberry yogurt. I always cook a nice breakfast on the weekends.

PowerAde Zero on sale at Costco. Today I swam for 2 hours and chugged nearly 3 bottles of the stuff. I bought I think 10 cases.

My ladyfriend brought me dinner tonight!

- Hamburger steak with dirty rice and corn and broccoli
- Honeybun Cake
- Fruit

Pretty good stuff. Might have to keep her around

Yes don't let her go whatever you do. ^ Although you'll need to tell her to wash the rice in future.

My missus made her first matambre and I cooked it in the horno. Not bad for a first attempt but needs some refining.

Is this the one that you refer to in that whitie thread?

And how come you never mentioned her in ALL your food outings? You mean you ditched her once it comes to going out, and keep her once she cooks?



I ate like a pig yesterday. Had chicken schnitzel with spinach/fries and salad. THEN an incredible chocolate thingy that had pistachios, yummy.

Then dinner courtesy of BA.


Off to the gym.

Hahaha well I tend to keep things quiet til I think they're serious. And no, different girl. She and I had dated last year during the summer but then with school and work there wasn't time. She came back into my life over New Year's and has stuck around. I feel that anyone who's willing to wait on me and see me during the few breaks I have must be worth a chance. Especially if she brings me food!

Oh and to get back on topic, brunch at my parent's country club today. Ham and cheese omelet, bacon, sausage, hash browns, a biscuit, country ham, some shrimp and corn chowder and ice cream. Thanks, Mom and Dad!

I remember my University days and food subsidized by my parents, especially our weekly outings at Chinese restaurants. Gotta get all the help you can get.

This morning I had a gluten free egg salad sandwich and yogurt parfait. Beef dip, potatoes and a cheddar veggie soup for lunch at the Calgary Science Centre. As an annual Member I get 10% off our party's food purchases.

Mother's day in the UK yesterday so we had my mother and mother in law to lunch.

I made halloumi salad, fish pie and apricot tart.

My mother who is never happy complained that there was beetroot in the salad, leeks in the fish pie and almonds in the frangipane around the apricots.

Sorry about that, next time invite me, I love to eat.

Yesterday's lunch Paella in all its forms: (thought of you chicagoeditor)

wet.

and dry.

And today I am craving them. .

We're having Sunday lunch tonight.
It was abandoned during preparation yesterday when Mrs Showbizguru announced " Bollocks to this,let's go out and get pissed " which we duly did.As it was Mother's Day I couldn't really object.
Roast pork,spuds gratin and Yorkshire Puddings with PROPER gravy and none of that metrosexual jus nonsense.
