Wetherspoons food
We all hate them for fruities. You can't go in there and find a single machine which hasnt been emptied by a player an hour before, and there are more noel edmonds faces than there are customers.
The food is good though, or at least i think so. What do you guys think of it? And what do you normally have? For me it's gotta be rump steak - tastes gooooood.

there was a hooha about their steak a while ago. some consumer champion (bored housewife) got on her soapbox and moaned for a bit, turns out the steak is not from a recognised cattle breed. it is from zebu which is a good scrabble word but they look like this:
yummy!
yummy!
nobody ever wins on those things.
Yeah i remember seeing this. Spoons and Hungry horse both had a high proportion of steaks which had Zebu DNA in them. As it lives in harsh arid conditions, the meat is tougher, hence the whinging. If you ever get a dodgy steak there, now you know why.
I don't mind the breakfasts, and you can't go wrong with the beer and burger deal for £4.50. Lovely.

does you good to have a proper pub meal from time to time. the lifestyle given to the pro player leans us all to easily in to the arms of the fast food chains, were constantly on the move from pup to pub, and therefore we trap ourselves into kfc n the like because it keeps up with us, we dont often enough take the time to sit, order, wait for and finally eat a proper meal because that whole process takes around an hour, and in the back of our feeble minds we know that hour could be spent doing another 3 machines , sad but true. im as guilty as the next man so we try to combat it by saying we will go without till we get home,,,, but by then usually around 11pm onwards for most of us, were really hungry and have a big meal at exactly the wrong time, before we go to sleep ,, hence the fat
so best to get in the spoons at 9am (do whatever mc you have in there first obviously ) order the breakie ,,,,,, as you haven't got to be anywhere till 11am so the preasure is off and you can take ya time. then try to take time out around 5 for a subway. easy ..
now where's that takeaway menu?

you tend to be safe ordering food which looks like what it should be, a bacon roll is fine but i wouldn't go near a 'spoons sausage or burger.
the curry club is quite good, but their spicy guide is a joke. even the madras is baby food.
personally i would have the penne & chicken or the lamb shank but as you say, it varies according to whether the chef can follow very simple instructions. (introduce to microwave, nuke for three minutes, put on a plate (don't bother warming the plate), hand to some dopey lackey who can wander about the pub guessing where you might be.)

Have had some shit hot Lamb Shanks but have also had some piss poor were the mash potato tastes like it has being re-used!
The Steaks can be amazing and can be shite as stated above it all depends!
We went to a steak house called something like Mannys Steak House, had a Extreme in there got a Fillet stake rare with chips and peppercorn sauce, cost £19 but oh my god it was superb!
The Extreme had £30 in it and the two meals came to £35 with drinks lol but we were out on the ale that night
