ive heard good things about 1762 and also that its impossible to get near the place at lunchtime.


ps BC try using two hands to hold your camera

Questions BC:

1. Where is it? Their map is just of DIFC and 'Building 5' isn't helpful.
2. Are they open at weekends?
3. Have you had the hoisin wrap, is it mega?
4. Do they consider Tomato an ingredient that should be mentioned or do they say 'cheese and lettuce sandwich' and chuck tomato in just to **** me off?

Thanks

Have you got a tomato phobia, Scamp?

No, just don't like them and I'm sick of finding them (and mushrooms) in food when it's not advertised that it contains such hateful foods.

been on a course I am getting better, took this one yesterday

Blue Cat

no they aren't open weekends, they are a weekday 9-5 business but do delivery. Place is always mobbed. I parked at the back and got the lift up to the terrace level and it was right there. They say it is it is, no sly tomatoes.

Bugger. Bet they don't deliver to JLT from either venue.

Oh well, one day I'll find and try it.

I am learning, I had the micro thing on, I really like the contrast between the white and the salad. The course I went on was iPhone photography but my phone crashes every time I take a shot, need a new one but skint so it will have to wait

Blue Cat

they might be catering an event at my house which will be a Saturday, I will invite you for the food

Be careful, if my rent situation isn't fixed I might not leave

Autonomy

It's better - 1 suggestion - try to get the ingredients tack sharp at this shallow depth of field rather than the bowl edge.

Blue Cat

tack sharp?

Meow

Absolutely. And consider the lighting and arrangement.

BC - Auto is referring to the main focus of the shot, which should be the food, not the dish.

use an app called pro camera and shut all other apps down before you use it if your phone is crashing
