I have the makings of many delicious dishes, in fact.
I'm going to end up sharing a mixed special kebab with my cat, aren't I? :-(

You are, and you'll enjoy every morsel. Don't give the cat any chilli sauce lest he shíte everywhere.
I lunched on Friday from 11 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. A truly memorable feast of the daintiest morsels which went on and on and on... and at 7 I demanded, and was given, a large doner :hehe:
I can't wait to have a real dinner :-(
microwave meals are the highlight of my day for the next week or so
Hopefully a 12.5% Service Charge was included in Sir C's slightly steep £640 bill
Did they throw in a bowl of plawn clackers ?

Does it not become an endless array of dumplings with chilli sauce or soya sauce?
I have had dim sum in the place it was allegedly invented and in several places highly rated by the locals (in HK) and was underwhelmed every time. It started out ok but once the dumplings started coming they seemed to never end. :-(
Yeah was completely ripped out. will take 3 weeks. I am 2 weeks in,
I am sure it would be quicker but it's just one fella doing it. Its driving me mad as there is crap everywhere and I got sheets all over the floors, good thing is he doing things that make sense like add plug sockets where they are needed without me having to ask him.
One good side is the fridge is near the sofa.
And the wife is in the fridge?
Loath as I am to agree with you in matters culinary, I must admit I am finding leeeedle beet the common ground with you here.
I find Dim Sum great at first and then it all starts getting a bit samey.
I mean I keep eating the little fùckers, don't get me wrong. A man's got to fill himself up. But they do start to get a wee bit indistinct.
And there was that time Ainsley Harriot fed me one from his chopsticks. That may have turned me against them. :-(
The last time I had it in HK the first few dishes were very good. In particular there was a fried rice dish which came with a chilli sauce on the side, it was quite unlike any other chilli sauce I have ever had and with the rice was utterly exceptional.
And then the dumplings started to arrive and within 20 minutes or so it had all blurred into one big dumplingfest. Dumplings can only be so good. I don't get it. :shrug:
Started with a couple of pints at 11. Offered cocktails on arrival at the restaurant at 11:30. Had a sort of pina colada type thing. Definitely heavy on the rum. Decided that a good chewy Burgundy was the way forward. Did four bottles of the stuff. Left the restaurant at 4:30, found we both had 20 minutes to wait for our trains - just time for a cheeky pint.
Got my hangover at 11 pm :-(
I'm still supposed to be recovering from My Brave Battle With Cancer, ffs.
I have to chip in here, DimSum is not just dumplings - even though the variety is sumptious, soup filled shanghai ones are a personal favorurite. I have to gorge on Chueng Fun, any kind of Bao, turnip cake, Char sui buns and glutinous rice by the leafful.
Just avoid fish maws and chicken feet......at all costs!
