The Grouse. NOT The Peacock

We were out on a 30th birthday party so were in reasonably good spirits, chatting etc. It's not till we realised we were going to be very hungry that we decided to get mad.

Last Sunday we went to The Peacock Inn. It truly was a disaster. Here are the bullet points for your enjoyment. On arrival we were told we would have to wait 10 minutes for a table, we waited 1h 5 minutes Are there any high chairs? No they are all being used. Will you let us know if any free up. Yes. After asking about the make-up of the gravy for the vegetarian roast (it came with a butternut squash pie) we were sighed at, and told it was made from beef. We asked if they had a vegetarian gravy, they said no. Not even bisto? No. Can you do us a parsely or cheese sauce? No. ... Why not? Because all the sauces come in pre-prepared sachets. That's.... very little chef, but that's fine, we don't mind, we'll have one of those sauces. You can't. Why not?! Because the sachets are not for other meals. ...! Can you just make us a roux based white or cheese sauce. The chefs don't do that. Why not, even I can make a cheese sauce! We have sachets. OKOKOK, no gravy, we'll have it dry. We ordered 4 of the Vegetarian options with roast (they were also available with seasonal vegetables) My wife nips to the loo and returns with 2 high chairs. Our meals arrived after 1h 50minutes, 2 lamb dishes (with cold mash), 1 roast beef (with cold beef) and 4 Vegetarian meals With seasonal vegetables And beef gravy. We left. Seriously incompetent, an absolute disgrace to the ctering industry.

Walkabout and Berlins are both truly awful meat markets on friday and saturday nights, Im sure you'll get lucky there. Be careful, practice safe sex.

A cathedral does not a city make. Common misconception.

Me for starters. As a bloke Im ashamed of these places. I think its funny to see how men subdgigate themselves at the feet of these women. They have total control over the male clientelle, and their money. I think its a place where they exploit men and their weknesses, not the other way round!

There isnt one, but I am planning openning a Yakitori restaurant in Sheffield.

The only problem is lack of active policing, but thats the same all over the town. The only time u see foot patrols are in the town centre on weekend evenings and match days. It amazes me that the americans have got it right and now put a oliceman on every corner in new york and the crime rate has dropped by 87% WE INVENTED THAT! We just dont do it anymore

They should extend it up ecclesall road, London Road and right up the parkway to the M1 and build a park and ride right by the motorway. That would make it usefull for the students, residents and visitors as well
