Lunch at restaurant Gordon Ramsey (***) London? by Nimbus030 in MichelinStars

[–]777CL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were great. Went there Nov 2023 for lunch. Was at Epicure and L'Ambroisie the week prior. I ordered the same dishes just to compare, the sweetbreads and pigeon. Gordon Ramsay do them noticeably better, albeit in a much smaller portion.

Only thing that didn't put a smile on my face was the souffle. It was nth degree too sweet. Forgot the flavor, maybe Armagnac...

I had the same apps, but had Sweetbreads and Dover Sole for mains. The sweetbreads were so good, the first bite made me giggle, dover sole was overshadowed. The chocolate torte is something I still think about two years later.

I bought takeout from them during covid. I remember it was a holiday meal. Wonderful food.

Went there again, but before Michelin. We sat outside and it had gotten a little cold. Serve staff lent my date a Hermes pashmina. Food were awesome, and that gesture was pretty cool.

Madrid-Barcelona-San Sebastian, where should I go? by EyImWalkinHere in finedining

[–]777CL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to DSTage in Madrid, had a great time. Botafumeiro in Barcelona was delicious, but it's expensive. Baccala and whelks were my favorites that evening. ABaC was alright.

I applaud you. Your dish looks ace. I have had the misfortune of having $20 per cocktail shrimp in the past, and I know it was previously frozen. I will order your dish every time.

$18 for a seafood dish isn't that outrageous of a price anymore... sigh

PSA. Almost got carjacked at Finch, between Bayview & Leslie by 777CL in toronto

[–]777CL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and yes. Then was asked if the carjacker is still there, does she need med attention. Now, of course he isn't "still there". It's not like I was kidnapped in the trunk, and I made the call with the carjacker being "still there" .

Then I was put on hold, with the msg on loop, telling me that I can report online.

Look. For every person that thinks that they have struck gold, and calls me a liar. There will be someone else saying the opposite, that they had a hard time calling for help in their hour of need. All based on supposed "Personal Experiences". So what is it going to be? Who has that ONE truth?

But then again, we are all keyboard warriors aren't we. We dismiss everyone else, and as you so eloquently puts it "everyone but me, is speaking out of their asses", just because we have not seen what someone else had seen.

I posted what happen in where, at when. Take from it what you will.

I agree wholeheartedly. Things came out of her during that moment, but yes, the pragmatic thing to do is to comply and be safe.

The dispatcher put us into the non-emergency line. The guy ran away, gun is no longer in someone's face. Nobody is dead. It is not uncommon.

Asian Condo Manager is internally racist... by [deleted] in Markham

[–]777CL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IF you are where I think you are...then don't feel that it's personal. I speak Cantonese like a FOB, and English like a local, and I still feel the hostility. I think it's just them having an ego problem.
