Just had mine on the phone as i "forgot" her.

i never forgot her, just dont like the old skank

what did you get your mums?

 

Same as you. Nowt.

 

Nowt at all, she had a moan at me today and probably wont speak to me for a while but I'll get over it

 

took my mum out for a meal and got her little notepad set..

and she got me a little keyring and flower to plant and grow and a badge from my little girl to me

 

Took her and my sister to lunch at Heston blumenthals Fatduck

 

I forgot too.

 

the missus was in charge of pressies, so she got a scalf, which I thought was a bit naff untill Karla told me it was 40 quid and a Birthday card , then had them all round for dinner

 

She got a nice delivery from Interflora on Saturday. And she got a couple of other small pressie's, her fav perfume, a scrapbook type photo album as she was always going on she had nowhere to put her photo's.

 

Card and chocolates, im so original ,lol

 

I got her some wine, small box of chocs and a little beanie teddy thing that i saw in Tesco's.

Fcking hate buying presents(fear of not knowing what to get)

 

dont buy anything its easyer

 

Interflora delivered on Sunday too by the way.

 

I got mine a dress and the 'How to cook' book by Delia Smith.

Benni.

 

A card and a tenner and she cooked me tea.

 

Interflora is the way forward for Mother's Day, I'm right in the good books now

 

i got my old dear one of them gel packs you can wear on your face when you get hot

well, the mrs got it and it covers the eyes so the old dears GOT to lie down and take it easy

 

You NEED to go to the Fat duck Chip... he does cooking the mans way.

Liquid Nitrogen. Its properly cold man!

Bacon and egg Icecream desert made with NITRO

hot and ice cold tea at the SAME time?!?!?!

My Sister was taking pics it was that mad. will upload if you like?

Food with Ipods in.... honestly... blokes mental!

 

Am taking my wife there as a surprise next month, how did you rate it?

 

Get them uploaded, i want to see them out of intrest

 

Cool lovely surprise mate. Bray is a LOVELY part of the world.

You doing the tasting menu I presume? make sure you do the wine tasting with it as well. REALLY adds to the experience.

Its a fun 3 hours!... a good laugh and well worth doing and you wont have food like it anywhere else!

Personally I think its just too mad. I prefer Ramseys Hospital road. Hestons food is just too crazy... and some of it is very rich and sickly in my opinion.

The last 2 courses (of 11 course!!!) are just tooo much. You finish with a english breakfast with a twist and I didnt like the parsnip cereal or the Egg and bacon icecream to be honest. Yuk...

You won't regret going, even though its PROPERLY PROPERLY expensive.... the 2 of you will spend Ł500 easy!

Sounds of the Sea! you have to listen to this....


whilst eating this...


the 'sand' is fried baby eels amonst other stuff! weird...



That liquid being poured is minus 150 degrees!





Got loads more boring food pics that my sis took.

I wont spoil it for Mondeo man though. Enjoy. Let me know what you think mate.

 

I work in bray literally 1 min up the rd from the Fat Duck. Heston filmed his chirstmas special in our carpark.

Wish i had the spare money to eat in there. Heston also owns the Hinds head pub next door to the Fat Duck. I have eaten there and the triple dunked chips are proper tasty

 

Bray is so lovely. Been there a few times for Fat duck and once for a mates wedding on Monkey Island!

I'd like to work there. Lucky you. Very peaceful!

 

Go for it with the photo's Porkie i'd love to see them, I know what to expect anyway, just wondered what you made of it all. I love my food and am in no way that well off but it's a proper treat for Mrs Mondeo Man to say thank you for something.

We did Gordon Ramsey at the London in NY in Nov 07 and we did wine matching there, it was amazing, honestly couldnt believe the skill of matching wine to what was being served, that kind of thing has to be tasted to believe. We loved it so much we managed to get into Maze the night after!

 

yea its a really nice area. I work in the business park (converted house) next to Monkey Island Hotel. It is a nice chilling place to work.

 

A card will treat her to dinner tommorow as she was at wrok yesterday

 

Spoookily... I am on hold to Maze as I type going tonight and need to put the table back 30 mins!

You will love the wine matching here as well. I don't like desert wines for example... but the first desert wine that the match to the 'sherbet fountain (prehit)' is off the rader. Match made in heaven!

My fav dish was the Snails Porridge! Its amazing....

and the Salmon in Liqourice. Yummy!

The cheapest wine matching is fine by the way.
