“We returned to the UK in May 2005 for a spell and moved back into our own house in Sutton in June. Here’s a brief review of a couple of eating and drinking places we’ve visited which have stood out from the rest. One of them, unfortunately, for the wrong reasons.” Some of the best places to eat and drink in the London Borough of Sutton – and one of the worst.
“Much of the disappointment was created by the great build-up they gave themselves. We thought we were in for a treat. Not so.” Kay and Dave stayed overnight in North Devon in August 2005 – here’s their verdict on the Fortescue Arms in Woolacombe…
“When we were forced to return to the UK in May 2005 but had nowhere to move into, we decided to spend the first couple of weeks in Worthing. We enjoyed it so much that, once we finally did get our house back, we went back down for a couple of nights when we were fed up of redecorating.” Dave on where to eat, drink and sleep in Worthing.
“We’d booked a self-catering holiday with no idea of what food supplies were readily available on the island, what cooking facilities were likely to be available or what the local hostelries would be like – in short, we were going into the week blind.” Nevertheless, you can spend a week on Malta and not starve. Dave tells all…
“On the face of it, the choice looked good enough for us to decide to eat there. On closer inspection, there were so many things worryingly wrong that I even took the time to write a whole page of faults and subsequently discuss them with the duty manager.” Kay and Dave have a dining experience they’d rather forget.
“The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the food is tasty. It’s not as good as some other Japanese fast food chains, though. Salmon appeared to be brought in ready-cut in plastic packets. It was still nice but it lacked the freshness we’ve come to expect elsewhere.” Kay and Dave review the branch of Sushi King at Georgetown’s Prangin Mall.
