left bank at the Old Town Souq, Dubai
Was there last night for dinner and drinks, I have to say that the burger was the most tastless watery burger I have ever tasted...utter shoite..
Knew we should have went to the rivington grill for some 20quid fish and chips..
I never put salt on my food, but with the excuse for a burger I was laying on the salt and pepper just to try to react some taste out of the thing..
Go to Burger king..better burger by far

Wise person-but I knew that about ya already....
I love ground black pepper-not white it's skanky.
French mustard.... yum
Salt makes me cringe thinking about it .
Commander,stick a fresh stalk of celery in your Bloody Mary as a swizzlestick and for chomping on instead of salty crisps or nuts......
Do you put Tio Pepe in too? and a little tabasco.
Lovely.

commander, shame you didn't have a good meal in leftbank, it's normally pretty good, but i don't eat burgers so don't know whether they are always bad or you were just unlucky...

We don't normally when we are out but we both really had a notion for one. My wife thought exactly the same about hers..
I've had a lot of good meals in the Left Bank chains..but I won't be having a burger again.

I don't eat salt either - my kids LOVE it. It can be a cause of stomach cancer apparently, as the salt erodes the lining of the stomach and when the lining regrows cancerous cells can grow.
Tomato juice ? Yeeeeuky, where's the puking smiley?

Salt is an essential ingredient in our diets, however there is usually enough salt included. I suffered on friday due to depleted salt levels ans dehydtation at the end of my training.
But agree TOO MUCH is really really bad
