Review of Newbridge Fish & Chips

11 Apr 08, 16:29

Yummy!

People travel far and wide for the newbridge chippy!

Always greeted with a smile, and they serve those nice orange chips too!

My only complaint would be they alway have radio 1 on at lunch times, Jo Whileys voice in a chip shop just doesnt go, unless they were battering the fish in gold and self importance!

Kebabs are great, make sure you shout GARLIC MAYO nice and loud!

Review of Dominos Pizza

Good location

Have a look on the map, its right near two offlicences, a video shop, and a co-op!

Soooooo

If you pick up your "meat feast"

while your waiting, go get some beers from next door, and a movie for a perfect night in!

Bosh!

Review of Beacon FM Wabc Radio

11 Apr 08, 17:06

Best Radio station in the Mindlands?

Hey, If that isn't a title to rattle up the anoraks I don't know what is.

Beacon Radio has been broadcasting for approximately 1 billion years!

Back then they had a "midnight line"? and "reel to reel"

Sadly both of these are now obsolete and should never be referred to again...

These days it still has a loyal following and pumps out local information by the boat load. Maaaaan they sure love local at that place....here's the line up....

06:00 - 09:00 Fresh & Jo In The Morning 09:00 - 13:00 Andy Nash 13:00 - 16:00 Justin Walker 16:00 - 19:00 Jon Wyer 19:00 - 22:00 Music Control Kevin Hughes 22:00 - 01:00 Late Night Love Graham Torrington

Review of McDonald's Restaurant

11 Apr 08, 17:16

Im loving it!

McDonald's restaurants are found in 120 countries and territories around the world and serve nearly 54 million customers each day

This one is is on the Penn Rd in Wolvehampton and serves the good folk of Wolves burgery type goodness.

This particular franchise has a "Drive Thru" feature, which is soon to take off across the world!

This is following the sucsess of the "Walk- Thru" system which took off in 1940.

Im loving it!

Review of Frankie & Benny's

11 Apr 08, 17:54

Alright by Kiddy standards!

F&B is a chain of Italian/American restaurants in the UK with numerous outlets nationwide

Its first location was Leicester in 1995 but now the chain has over 100 locations across the UK and also abroad.

Now in the exotic location of "kiddy"

Fair play too it, its in a good location, in some sort of abandoned flour mill.....obviously they have got rid of the flour....

This is one of a few F&B's ive been to and they have cooked my steak how I like it.....BLUE!!

If you are interested about the "Story" behind the chain, heres how it goes....

Once upon a time in 1924, at the age of 10, Frankie left Sicily with his parents and moved to Brooklyn’s “Little Italy” in New York. Within a year of moving, the family had opened a restaurant, which is now co-managed by Frankie's long-time friend Benny. The business was taken over by Frankie and Benny in 1953, and combines popular American food with traditional Italian dishes. Everybody ate steak,ordered a pudding,tipped their waitress& lived hapily ever after!

ahhhhhhhhhh

night

I had to sign for my food?!!

This one up Merry Hill in theory should be the same as the others. Almost!

I ordered a steak and asked for it cooked "blue" ( as in rarer than rare) they made me SIGN A DISCLAIMER!

So I couldnt sue them in a court of something!

How bizzare!

I order Blue steak alllllllll the time! That has never happened before or since!

They still overcooked it!

D'oh

Review of Wing Wah Chinese Buffet Restaurant

11 Apr 08, 18:26

Wing Wazzy!

All you can eat chinese buffet!

Plenty of choi ce and efficient staff.

Bit of a wierd builing compared to the Imperial in the town centre.

This buffet does have a chocolate fountain for the kids to put their head under though!

Parking is difficult.

Its a tough one, but i reckon the Imperial has the edge!

Read my review to find out why I prefer that one!
