We went with two other couples and when we all hit our 40ths a few years ago, we went for a posh meal on the occasion of each,and three of these were Michelin starred establishments. One was the Hand and Flowers and, not only was it the cheapest of them all, but it was the only place that we all vowed we would absolutely have to go back to!

As I said, it took us 4 years to succeed but we will be going back again - I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Nice one, Adam. Pretty standard prices then for a Michelin restaurant. Sounds very good, but if it's that hard to get a table, then I won't be able to go, as the only way I'd have been going there would have been on the off chance, if I was ever in the area, down your way.

This is our favourite Michelin starred joint, near us. The food here is superb, and they also have rooms: https://www.checkerswales.co.uk/

Thoroughly recommended if you fancy a trip to this truly beautiful part of the country! :cool:

an awful lot of money for a meal in my book.:doh: different worlds right enough

For a special occasion, mate. It's not just a meal - it's the whole experience, which is unforgettable. And the cuisine (I hesitate merely calling it 'food') is like you'll never have tasted before. The flavours are just incredible!! :eek:

Adam will know exactly what I mean.

not knocking anyone. folk can spend their money the way they want.:) just i couldnt spend that personally even if i could afford it, which i never will.
as i say, different world to mine.

I have been known to spend the equivalent on meals many years ago. Wouldn't now.

Might push the boat out and have chicken nuggets, spaghetti hoops and instant mash later. :D

Sure, mate. The way I look at it is neither Del or I smoke, or drink (heavily), and have worked hard for what we've got, and we can afford it, so why not treat ourselves sometimes?

Life's too short not to enjoy yourself :)
