They're not that bad as it happens. Although I think I probably should wandered down to the pub for a burger, chips and a pint. Plus, in the good NA fashion I can carrying on working while having my lunch. Now 'working' is definitely a euphemism.

I was out and about in downtown St John's this lunchtime running some errands. I miraculously found a parking spot near the brewpub that does a very passable pint & slightly overblown gastro pub food. It required all the willpower I possess not to have popped in for a couple of pints and a burger. The need to talk coherently, or at least appear interested, in a IT issues call at 2pm kept my feet on the straight and narrow path.:(

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

The need to speak coherently is not an issue in my line of work although the need not to fall asleep in meetings tends to keep my consumption down to a couple of pints at lunchtime. Now if it was Friday all social conventions aside, they all bugger off.

A paragon of virtue and an example to us all, I think.
I was less principled and since it is a sunny day here in the UK and I am not working, I had ice-cream for lunch.
Yes, just ice-cream.
It was clotted cream ice-cream with honeycomb, for those who like the details.:)

FYI, don't order the fish tacos ever, no matter how good an idea it seems at the moment. :(

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Hands up who saw that one coming:lightbulb::rofl:

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Told. You. So.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Dear me. Why-ever not? Fish tacos (at least those I had in Ensanado (sp?) a few years ago) were lovely. Gorgeous I might go so far as.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

My wife's fish tacos are lovely. But I wouldn't risk trying them anywhere else.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Okay I'll amend that rather blanket statement to say, don't order the fish tacos if they're 'cooked' by a dodgy and seemly apathetic institutional catering department. :(

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Oh dear - is one feeling a little green around the gills today - :rofl:

sorry xxxx

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

I'll generalize that; don't order the food if it's 'cooked' by a dodgy and seemly apathetic institutional catering department.

Unless the alternative is Tim Hortons Ham and Swiss with engine oil.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Today I had suasage, egg and chips with lashings of ketchup.

I was going to have a cheese sandwich, but they had some sausages at the supermarket that they were calling "english style" which I hadn't spotted before. I gave them a go, and whilst not being the best sausages ever, they were actually surprisingly good. I shall be buying them again.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

Which shop and how much?


I'll be having a burger and chips, a choice I should have made two weeks ago. Although they never seem to do peas with the burgers over here. :(
Plus, as everybody seems to have buggered off for the long weekend, I won't be coming back from the pub anytime soon.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 

You had me right up to the ketchup. What a way to ruin a good meal. :p
