Carvery etiquette

[Dennis]

It was better when he was at Msriners Park.

Haven't noticed the difference in that bait, he's a good chef like is Carl

 

[Sir Lancelot]

meat and veg that's been standing there for hours, with scrattters mits all over it, coughing and sneezing to boot, whats not to like?

Have you ever been to a carvery? Standing there for hours? As if, you would be lucky if it’s there ten minutes before needing to be replenished.

 

[Cyrilsneer]

Grey Hen in Sheels is the best 1 about

the grey hen? You mean the pub that got 1/5 in the latest hygiene ratings?

 

[No. 1 is Gary Rowell]

Just because its Cleadon does not mean that the afore mentioned establishment will be frequented by fat, greedy ignorant twats. A carvery is a carvery, that's the rules since 1980's at least.

Unfortunately this. It was a decent pub (assuming you're talking about the Brit), but Toby Carvery got it and have really made it a dive.

Hate how the stuffing always seems to suck o the spoon

Taking the moral high ground about Carverys whilst chatting to strangers on the net at 20:50 on a Sunday night. This place

It's Sunday?

 

[cornish mackem]

Gluttony seems to be more evident at a Sunday carvery than at any other sit down food place. It’s the “posh “ version of a bargain bucket

We're not strangers, we're just friends you haven't met yet......Unless you get in the politics forum in which case all usual rules of moral decency and fellowship for this place are off it seems.

f***ing pathetic creepy twat

Now now Robert

What’s the point though? Why not just go somewhere where someone takes your order and brings your food?

The one on the roundabout at Leadgate is the best I've had recently.

Terrible the meat in there “Turkey Roll”

 

[MackneyHackem]

Not really, the place was rammed and we watched them replcing the veg regularly.
What do you think happens to the plates of uneaten curry when you go for an Indian?

They go straight in the bin. Kitchens in restaurants don’t have the space to save plates of uneaten food just in case. Costs them fuck all to make a dish again.

What do you think happens?

 

[chriswallace85]

Avoid and go somewhere with table service.

Did you ever go to the 1A cafe in Shields?

The 1A cafe, used to go there on a friday when i was working as an apprentice at streamline garage.

 

[Henry_Hill]

Your first mistake was going to a carvery, a magnet for greedy chubbers with the table manners of a pig.

Total scratter food and scratter behaviour, minging places same as ‘all you can eat buffets’ places

 

[Tin Soldier]

Usually as much food on the carpets as there is on plates and more plates half filled on empty tables when people leave

 

[Bob Fleming]

The carvery at The Cliff is absolutely tremendous. Meat cooked to perfection and really nice Yorkshires and veg. Well worth it. It's a 1 minute walk from the house too so if there's no chebbles I just get a takeaway and bring it home.

 

[OOOSH YEAH]

Exactly. Kids playing with the tatties etc. Absolutely vile these things.

 

[BigPete]

Yep, you don't go to a carvery expecting people to follow etiquette. They're designed for pigs who usually pile their plates so high they can't see where they're walking

That’s me

I wouldn’t push in front of someone though I have manners.

One called the Killingworth arms in Forrest Hall does proper lush ones on a Sunday best I’ve had.

No you get a doggy bag.

The Jolly Drovers.
Never had a bad one from there...always nice.

Sounds erm canny

They used to do a lovely carvery at the Italian Kitchen on the border of Suddick / Fulwell. The gammon was divine.

However, I read a review on Friday (I was thinking about going that night) that they've stopped?

Ended up having Friday tea at the Italian Kitchen West Rainton instead. Lovely as usual and cheap too, £75 for 5!
