Ekona Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 As far the whole 'do something romantic' thing goes, I would just say that we're more than husband and wife: We're also best friends, and we both enjoy going out and having a laugh as much as anything else. We've done romantic getaways before, but the memorable times have been when we've done things that are utterly stupid. That's why we're going somewhere that does silly big food things 2 Quote

Stutopia Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Some time this month according to Dan's 1st post. I can't live with that level of uncertainty!!!! This is like watching 24 but one week at a time instead 24 hours straight on box set. 1 Quote
Ekona Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 It's the 31st, we're having the meal a couple of days after the anniversary so we can be out when the trick or treaters start. Still can't decide between burger and steak. Every time I think I'm sorted, I think of the other then change my bloody mind! Quote

Ekona Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 I dunno, y'know. I either want massive burger or massive steak. Quote

G1uk2010 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I dunno, y'know. I either want massive burger or massive steak. Get one of each and share with the missus Quote
GMballistic Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 It's the 31st, we're having the meal a couple of days after the anniversary so we can be out when the trick or treaters start. That would be a bad idea around some of the areas here. Just means you are a nice moving target for them to egg whilst you're driving and they can let fireworks off through your letterbox whilst you're out. Quote

Ekona Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 I'm not entirely convinced I can get away with that, but I reckon it's worth a punt... Good idea! Quote

Dashurik Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Jo and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary this month, and so I've booked us a table at the Rare Cow restaurant. It's a lovely place, and I've been there once before, but upon choosing what to have I've come a-cropper, as they say. They do a Holy Cow Burger, which is as pictured below (that's two of the guys I went there with, shows scale between normal burger and Holy Cow): 24oz of pure meaty goodness, with salad and onion rings inside. I managed to get through approx 3/4 of mine before giving up. I put this solely down to having stuffed my face with a huge starter beforehand, and I know I could finish that muther in one go with ease on an empty stomach. However, I've seen they now do another epic food nom to try... That's a 74oz sirloin. Seventy four ounces. TWO WHOLE KILOGRAMS OF BEEF. Plus odds and sods, of course. Now, I look at that steak and wonder if I can really pass that up? But is it a bit excessive really (it's £99 just for that, the burger in comparison is just £29)? They are proper challenges too, so if you do the burger in 20 mins or the steak in 60 mins you get it free, but tbh I wouldn't rush it regardless. Either would be just for the sheer pleasure of great food in copious amounts. So folks, do I revisit the burger and conquer the one large meal that has ever beaten me, or do I throw caution to the wind and go for the steak? Feel sorry for your wc pan.... Quote
spursmaddave Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 As I find these oversize meals to be rediculous and over the top I hope you make yourself really ill Why not have a nice regular meal and donate some money to a local homeless shelter for some food for the really hungry Quote
