The salads there were absolutely mahooooosive - I'm talking seriously, seriously big. Not one of us could finish even the starter portion - and the main course portions were just laughably huge. For all that though, they were gorgeous - with lots of different veggies prepared in differing ways. Mega-yum. The problem was the waste. Obviously, salad can't be re-used (well, one hopes it can't) and their waste bin must have been full to the brim. I can't imagine what it did to their profits, never mind their reputation.<br /><br />As for the Scotch Bonnet chilli, OMG. ~gasp~ I used half of one and it made me cough for a good ten minutes after chopping it. Having put it in the curry, I was a tad concerned that the curry might eat the plate! LOL Oh boy, but the pain was worth it. I think I might trot out another half on the spiced pork steaks tomorrow. :)Jenny Eatwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664664803454422811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6040346349049757534.post-48953238022153318572012-02-21T21:29:07.835+00:002012-02-21T21:29:07.835+00:00Hello Sonali - and thank you for your kind words. ...Hello Sonali - and thank you for your kind words.

It needs to be re-branded into being a 'fresh meal' or maybe a 'tossed mezze'. On the now rare occasions we eat out (prices went up and food quality dropped, so we stopped bothering) I look forward to seeing the salad as a main option. <br /><br />As for the chillis, I think you're brave to even be the same room as a scotch bonnet!Jane Rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6040346349049757534.post-81861245222530547092012-02-21T16:56:21.130+00:002012-02-21T16:56:21.130+00:00Hi Jenny....came in thru bloggers......I liked ur ...Hi Jenny....came in thru bloggers......I liked ur space....n the salad looks so delectable.....I can hav this netime....following ur blog now.....do visit my space sometime!<br /><br />Http://Onlyfishrecipes.blogspot.com/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488934322326615324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6040346349049757534.post-58846106971892632752012-02-21T13:03:50.661+00:002012-02-21T13:03:50.661+00:00Sounds lovely - as always!
