We've upgraded to Aqua Class with Celebrity. This gives us fast track check in, a large balcony, separate restaurant, butler service and use of the leisure facilities. The food is excellent and plentiful, we are hooked on cruising and it's something everyone should try in my opinion.

Going out tonight for a curry again with friends, loads of beer and good food, knowing Cellino has won his appeal, for now, I'm not thinking the FL will appeal, it would look like they don't trust their own system and even worse, it would look like they would prefer one of the biggest clubs in England to go in to Administration again. Surely even they aren't that pig headed? Gonna have a Goooooood night tonight.

Re: The blabla of the forum
Tonight the missus and I are going to a Chinese restaurant called Shanghai-Shanghai. It's one of quite a few in the city that cater to Nottingham's sizeable Chinese student population by providing traditional cooking a world away from the chow mein and industrial sweet & sour we know from take-aways. They specialize in the spicy aromatic cuisine of Szechuan (so why didn't they call it Szechuan-Szechuan?)
Having perused the menu on t'interweb I've found one dish which we'll be avoiding: Fu Kim fried rice with sauce - perhaps reserved for customers they don't like....?
Also, on a first visit we'll not be trying:
Pork lungs in chilli sauce
Squid tentacle with cumin
Dry fried pig's intestine
If anyone has had experience of Szechuan food I'd like to hear their opinions/experiences.

The Mrs is a veggie MW, but she has the Vegetable Szechuan and really likes it. I think it is supposed to be a spicy dish, but it's nowhere near say a Madras in Indian terms if you know what I mean. I personally go with the Garlic Chilli Beef, which can be a tad hot (dependent on the Chef of course).mapperleywhite wrote: If anyone has had experience of Szechuan food I'd like to hear their opinions/experiences.
When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

Re: The blabla of the forum
Thanks BB - your description of the heat level was very accurate. Neither of us are Madras/vindaloo merchants, but we do enjoy a bit of spice and I have to say it was just right last night.mapperleywhite wrote:Tonight the missus and I are going to a Chinese restaurant called Shanghai-Shanghai.

A real culinary treat. The fish in chilli oil was unlike anything I'd ever seen before and was magnificent. Roasted lamb bones doesn't sound very tempting, but it was delicious, loaded up with cumin. And the pigs ear with garlic was a new one for me (not my wife though). A bit like eating a tasty rubber band
The portions are enormous and we've got enough takeaway for another complete meal.
At the end we both had a nice, satisfying chilli glow in our mouths. A great meal.

I know no one will care but I've just watched the International Space Station pass overhead.

Taking my son to Leeds Uni today, he's hoping to get in to do Criminology, he smashed his A levels.
