Sir C, were you referring to Omar Allibhoy's place down below? Tapas Revolution?

[Maravilloso Marvo]

For one moment, I thought you might have been talking about La Tasca!?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Clearly not.

Omar is a good chum of mine, actually.

[Maravilloso Marvo]

Omar is also a good friend of my family and he does indeed do quite a good job of bringing authentic Spanish food to our shores.

There's news!

I hope they don't f**k it :-(

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I've seen him on tv once and I regularly give him money.

They've taken the fabada off the menu :-(

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Gwynny less so.

When real Chorizo and morcilla has been brought back from Spain.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It doesn't work with black pudding.

[Maravilloso Marvo]

and now they are Facebook friends. He is married with two little kids I believe. That is about as well as I know him.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Maravilloso Marvo]

Did you use Chorizo bought in this country as well?

You need the rice in the morcilla that you don't get in black pudding. Plus both of them just taste so plasticy if you buy them here. I assume there are some health and safety laws that mean they can't add the bits and cure them properly that give them the correct taste in Spain.

[Maravilloso Marvo]

Tapas Revolution hasn't been a roaring success yet, either.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

there's a queue at TGI Friday.

The English are scum, aren't they?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

but I've seen her in movies getting poled in the arsepart by Omar.

[Maravilloso Marvo]

This country became obsessed years ago with Italian food being the best there is. Olive oil? Italy. Tomatoes? Italy. etc etc.

So as it grew, more and more Italian food was imported and the price has come down accordingly. Meanwhile the demand for Spanish food never grew so there is not as much demand to import and therefore the costs remain too high and you end up with Omar serving genuine food but at 3 times the price it would be in Spain.

So TFI ends up being more fat for your pound than Tapas Revolution.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I'm trying my best to help, going once a week.
