Dining Out
March 14, 2010 –
Joan Rivers once said that if you go out to dinner with anyone apart from yourself you should have at least 3 good stories to tell. That is excellent isnt it? I am lucky that when I dine out, whether it be with my lovely clients or friends, soon-to-be friends etc, there is never that awkward slience. Everyone has an interesting tale to tell. But I have been in situations where I have seen people squirm with embarassment, desperately thinking, ‘what can I say?”, what can I say?’. I usually cant bear those silences and jump in with something.
3 things, take them with you – regale, delight and enthrall!
Where have I been lately? Well I went to La Gavroche (thank you so, so much Mr!) – totally amazing and a new contender for my best restaurant in the UK (world actually), also went to Corrigans in Mayfair and had a schnitzel off a food stall on Portobello market, see how versatile I am? I will be in so much in trouble for that! (sorry mum and all my teachers) Oh and a couple of restaurants that I went to with some friends that were ok but not worth a mention.
Do you remember me enthusing about the foodie market that happened in Plymouth once a year? Well, they happen every week here in London. Yes!! Ive been to Pimlico market and Borough Market and all manner of fab deli’s. If ever there was an opportunity to be greedy, it is here. Off to the gym then. x
