I'd expect 40-odd medium ones in a nice big deep pan with another nice big pan to dump all the - whole - shells. And an enormous great white cloth napkin.


And that's what I generally get.


And if I don't, I don't go back. B)


Signed, mussel-eater extraordinaire.


PS My gran has a great recipe for mussels with a hot red sauce she makes, but that's different.

Is this market research? In which case Snorky is the muscles you're going to have to deal with.

Is there some sort of cultural bias implicit in this enquiry? In which case I shall forward your post to Richard Littlejohn and if the mood takes me John 'Jon' 'Gaunty' Gaunt and see how you like it.


As for me I'm vacillating between 'which is the cheaper' and 'Meh'?

Im guessing this is for a mains size meal then. our current price for similar is ?11.95 , a lite/starter size is ?5.95

however we will be about 10-15% cheaper at new site ( i Think)

Still looking at new suppliers and prices


We serve in creamy white wine sauce


yes we use big bowls and we give you a shell bowl


we dont do the cloth napkins sorry , but you can have plenty of paper ones.


also i agree with LuLu too, fresh is best and that is something we strive to do as much as possible

Its sort of resereach

although we wont have mussels on the main menu, we will have a blackboard specials menu as well as a small everyday menu.


We dont want to change too much of the pub. we want to retain its pub-ness and character but we want to paint & clean it up a bit and make it inviting to a wider market.


anyone is welcome to contact me direct if they have questions or points to raise


cheers


Phil

So how's it with the loving things Honaloochiean, these days?

It's just that I'm meeting up with a couple of mobsters from Hull this Friday.

And I was hoping you'd do me the honour, indeed the privilege of, well giving me some background on them.

It's Teddy Carstairs the fruit and veg Don, apparently not an orange moves in the area without his say so and Mickey 'The Mike' Mansfield who runs all the karaoke in town. Last time he heard someone whistling 'I Will Survive' on the street, he informed them they wouldn't unless they coughed up half a quid.

So Lulu, any 'skinny' you might have on them?

And that's all I need to know, Lulu. Thanks.

I'll know exactly at which point of the negotiations to apply that piece of intelligence.

Consider yourself owed a quadruple Tanqueray and mixer of your choice.

Stay in touch.

ha


new improved non biting snorky


"Local" mussels make muchnmore sense and are better tasting than the awful lumpy one from the other side of the world - havwe to be fresh & have to be good, otherwise people will not bother


full shell, semi open , steamed to perfection, good chips


simple & easy
