I don't want to go to room

48's bistro

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:43 (twenty years ago)

travelling up then isn't exactly a bargain, but i was expecting that to be the case.

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:43 (twenty years ago)

I liked it last time and anyway it's only new for the people who went out for Cathy's birthday and anyway I've been told that Antonious is inferior.

I am going to be here for Hogmanay too.

Room pisses me off. There's Glasgow's really smart, elegant top-end hotel, 10 Devonshire Gardens, wins awards and that, Clooney stays there. Then the whole look gets ruined by a tacky (lop-sided) sign outside for Room saying virtually: "Come on in! Hen parties welcome, children's menu available, Happy Hour all day Wednesdays!"

It's bringing down the area.

I might text the Metro about it.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:46 (twenty years ago)

We were asked to consider Room's rather unimaginative Christmas menu at work the other day. I think we're just going to one of the hotels up the end of Argyle Street now.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:48 (twenty years ago)

Also, its logo is really naff.

Hate the Room!

easyjet or ryan air??

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:00 (twenty years ago)

Easyjet!

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:03 (twenty years ago)

room sounds kinda contrived.

we should go to the greek golden kebab on the south side. and no, not just because it's a bawhair away from my house.

failing that, we should just go to the PUB.

room's logo looks like a weirdo's knuckleduster

A mutant's handcuffs.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:07 (twenty years ago)

Haha, Grimly thinks he can tempt ilx sarf of the river. Ooh, but there is that good-looking Kurdish place on Pollokshaws Road which I want to try.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:13 (twenty years ago)

I don't want to pull a good-looking Kurd. Actually maybe I do. I was assuming it was all men, for some reason. How sexist. Or is it homophobic? Or racist?

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:14 (twenty years ago)

Hang, on. We're not going out on the pull, are we? I'm getting confused with the conversation I am having with my colleagues about our Christmas do.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:18 (twenty years ago)

Haha great minds, kinda.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

are there any turkish restaurants, in glasgow?

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

not that'd I'd go

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:21 (twenty years ago)

Cafe La Padella is kind of Turkish.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:26 (twenty years ago)

that good-looking Kurdish place on Pollokshaws Road

koshkemeer? YES, IT LOOKS ACE. let's go there. now.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:27 (twenty years ago)

I tried and failed to persuade Stet to go there last night. There was one near the Snaffle, but I think it's closed down. Aren't a lot of the Turkish people here actually ethnic Kurds who have done a runner?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:27 (twenty years ago)

~~ethnic~~ Kurds

I think

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:29 (twenty years ago)

Let's talk about Turkey's human rights record, for Cathy.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:31 (twenty years ago)

There = Padella. He is up for 'the Kosh'.
(X-post again, I can't keep up)

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:31 (twenty years ago)

the argan cafe?

seb's?

mediterranean, more than turkish

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:33 (twenty years ago)

I tried and failed to persuade Stet to go there last night

tell him he's a big chumper.

and to check his e-mail.

i'm not really up on the turkish diaspora, but i do know that lots of people have told me koshkemeer - which styles itself "scotland's first kurdish restaurant" - is absolutely MIGHTY. as long as you like lamb, that is.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:34 (twenty years ago)

When I worked in the tall flats on Red Road, there was a lovely Kurdish woman called Neriman whose dream it was to own a cafe. She was doing her food hygiene certificate and looking at a place near the university at the time (about 3 years ago). I've often wondered what happened to her.

She used to sing me the Turkish version of Kiss Kiss too!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:39 (twenty years ago)

I don't like lamb

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:41 (twenty years ago)

you worked in the red road flats?

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:41 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, for about 3 months in summer 2002. It was by far the most interesting, friendly and thoroughly good place I've worked since I've been here. I was just very overqualified and underpaid.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:47 (twenty years ago)

I don't like lamb

you and mrs fiendish both (hence my not having been to koshkemeer yet).

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:14 (twenty years ago)

Does she like pork?

― alext (alext), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:17 (twenty years ago)

very forward

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:19 (twenty years ago)

The List says you don't have to eat lamb; chicken and fish are also available. Also, it is BYO = key I'd say.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:27 (twenty years ago)

Does she like pork?

no, but she enjoys tiny chipolatas very much.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:31 (twenty years ago)

very backwards

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:32 (twenty years ago)

are there any good mexican restaurants in glasgow?

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 14:33 (twenty years ago)

BYOASBO

This is totally the year of the sausage. (for me I mean).
