As I don't live at the centre of the universe (or so they think London is)....there were only 2 choices for me. So I think it was a fairly discriminatory question, ruling out all those non-city dwellers!!

Actually we try and do thorough checks about the coverage of the restaurants when we consider how prominent coverage we get.

While we're aware a couple of chains have a stronger London/SE presence, most are UK wide. If you could give more info - which are the key chains - are you in a city, town, village, countryside id be very interested

The images I get of being brought up in a forest....like Mowgli or something...*chuckles*

PS my choice is Yo Sushi. I loved Giraffe when I lived in London though. La Tasca is joint favourite though because I go there a lot; I got won over by being a mystery shopper for them.

I recently used the Pizza Express voucher and my friend was amazed that we could save over £8.00 just by printing out a voucher.

Food was lovely too:j

La Tasca for me, you can spend as little or as much as you like depending on how hungry/rich you are feeling! x

Prezzo. The place is delicious and reasonable at the best of times, so extra cheap with the 2 for 1s! And they have so much good food that there's always a choice for something different. Yum!:beer:

I really enjoy going for lunch with a friend at Pizza Express, especially as almost everyone there are using the discount vouchers! My son's favourite restaurant is Zizzi and we saved a lot of money on his birthday. Now I rarely go to any of the bigger chain restaurants unless there is a deal available...

Cafe Rouge, thanks. Last time I went to Pizza express in Milton Keynes I was disappointed, the food was Mediocre and the place seem to be staffed by foreign students who didn't care much and spoke poor English.
