[i42] Foodage!

[Wol]

I was toying with the idea of just making a whole lasagna and shoving it in a cool bag for eats when I got there. Though with no fridge i may need help eating it...

As for delectable cakes i may ask the oracle (my mother who is a caterer) to suggest cakes that are easily transportable and also primarily delicious.

Any cake that can fit in a box is easily transportable. Doesnt really matter at lan if the icing gets on the box

To be honest, I reckon you could get a lasagne to last for a cupla days. If you make it thurs morning, it should still be fine by fri evening. When i make one, I usually just leave it sitting on the hob overnight and its fine. Get a cool bag and a few ice blocks to keep it cold. Or even freeze a portion, so it slowly defrosts. By the time its defrosted, whack it in the microwaves and huzzah: food!

I was good and didnt buy any easter eggs though. And no mini eggs! shock horror. They're too much like grapes

So we're kinda fed up of the crap food at newbury and we're looking for places we can head out to eat.

So far I've found

In and around Newbury. Anyone else know anywhere decent?

p.s. Wanna have a group booking one day for some fuds?

mmm oxymorons. I vaguely remember big discussions for i40 about going out somewhere for a meal. In the end we were all rather lame and just had a chinese delivered (collected) instead

I'm sure there must be some good local pubs that do good pub grub.

Are you saying toby food + crap food is an oxymoron thus toby food is nice food (not that i said toby was crap!)

Or are you sayign "crap" and "food" is an oxymoron with the link to toby being an accident?

ill rephrase, as the way I originally wrote it now, on second thoughts, wasn't very clear

"I'm looking for food thats not crap"
"Toby carvery"



It's a bit.... meh, in my opinion. I reckon you can probably get a lot nicer food served to your table in a local pub in newbury, rather than at a toby carvery. Depends what sort of food youre looking for I guess.

Ahh.. well it's better than LAN food

Like I said if you know any good pubs around there, do tell!

No idea. I imagine googling / looking on teh good pub guide might help. Will have a try later on if i remember. would be nice to try and get somewhere thats unique to newbury, rather than just a chain that I could goto back at home.
