carni 10,094 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 We went out for a Christmas meal with our Ballroom Dance Class last week. Chris had a Pint of Carlsburg £3.00 I had a glass of Blackcurrant Cordial, water and ice £3.20!!! How many £3.20s do you think they made out of one bottle Cordial. Our 1.25Lc double concentrate Robinsons Cordial makes 50 glasses. £160! not a bad profit there. Unless the ice was expensive. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,466 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Roebuck on St James Street isn't bad. Some of the customers can be a bit funny though. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
banjo48 928 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Chateau a la "Banjo48" not bad today, Extra large Tiger prawns with homemade seafood sauce and crispy skin jacket potato. Mixed leaves salad with homegrown tomatoes. Very reasonable price for quality tucker. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TBI 2,351 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 A bit out the way, but if you get to Newark the Danube is well worth a visit. Very tasty Germanic style food and good selection of decent beers. Great value. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
darkazana 1,736 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Busy making a batch of mincepies to take to Quiz Night at Harby (the one near Newark) tonight. Having new health issues now (ie diabetes) I decided to check out the calorific value of my homemade mince pies, bearing in mind I use a rich pastry with high fat content, eggs and other very bad things!!! After an hour of beating my brains doing weighing and sums check out this.....each regular sized mince pie contains 180 Kcals (I won't bore you with all the other nutritional content). So I then compared it to a bought mincepie....brace yourselves folks....a minimum of 220 Kcals!!!! I shall carry on with the homemade melt in your mouth version...however I have made myself some mini (gob size) mincepies at 62kcals each a bargain I reckon! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob.L 1,090 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Can highly recommend Copper in Mapperley. Homemade Scones the size of door stops, with lashings of jam and fresh cream. The rest of the menu looks superb, too. For pub food, Sam Hall in Sherwood. OK, it's a Wetherspoons, but has a better feel about it than others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mercurydancer 1,104 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 As usual, my favourites are Laguna on Mount Street. Was there a couple of weeks ago and it was gorgeous, plus Higoi Japanese in Lenton. Its a proper family run Japanese restaurant and does more than the sushi stuff. The miso soup is gorgeous. I prefer a table where you have to sit on the floor on a mat. Its a fair walk to the tram stop after a few sakes but I usually manage it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
