    I am going to try and meet a friend before the end of the month, and I owe her a treat, so maybe we could do that, as I have my tastecard.

    Google their website as have to book to use tastecard as only 70 people a day. They also closed during the Olympics end July/Aug. I love my tastecard we get 50% off at our local Indian:j makes it cheaper to sit in than takeaway:T :D;) we have 2 cards as pizza express only do 241 & 2ple per card:( so if we want to go with kids or friends.


    Look like no dates after 22nd july when you click for tastescard, only seems to offer dinner lunch & breakfast not the aftenoon tea

    Oh forgot also had turn up yesterday the Wok Along Lee Kum Kee cooking book :j. DH was pleased already said what you cooking:D:rotfl:


    Congrats AH - you will never go wrong with Lee Kum Kee stuff they are very good and it a well known brand too. Their recipes are very easy to follow. You will find that most of the time its the preparation that takes up the time, cooking time is between 20 minutes to 30 mins depending on what you are cooking.

    Aesop when we were bkg with the red letter had to give 3 different days and time then they got back and confirmed got my first choice but also had the Fri 20 & sat 21nd still available. But if you bkg with tastecard you do it all on their site you choose what meal then date when just looked think the fri/sat/sun for lunch avail on 20/21/22 july. It asked you preferred seating area which gives the option of restaurant or afternoon tea
