How to be stuck up AND get blotto

July 19, 2008

We all know one or two of these people, people who have totally no idea about booze but throw around these pretentious descriptions of ‘woody’ and ‘fruity’ like they were the love child of Oz Clarke and Jilly Goolden (minx).

When you speak, speak slowly, as though you’re coming to a conclusion. Then break out with it.

“I taste a hint of blackberry just at the finish.”

Either people will agree with you, or they won’t. If they agree with you, great! They don’t taste shit, either. You can now tell them you’re catching a splash of Strawberry Go-Gurt in the fourth and down, and they’ll just nod and stare. You have bolloxed a bunch of clueless snobs; take a bow!

If they don’t agree, then frown a little. They won’t ever say, “Bullshit! You fucker!” Instead, they’ll say, “Really? I don’t taste that….”

Legend.

The Ferret has 5 steps in total and will make you smile!

manju malhi curry

If there is one piece of advice i can give anyone visiting the fair North County Dublin in search of fine chinese food it would be this: Do not, under any circumstances visit Silks restaurant in Malahide.

Now i know 101 people can vouch for it amongst others the Taoiseach, half of Westlife and other upstanding pillars of Irish society and will tell you the service is impeckable and the staff are lovely and the food is not over priced, don’t be lulled into this fall sense of celebrity, they’re wrong!

In total our party of 6 took over four hours, hunger is a good sauce, but only if you get what you ordered and it’s thirsty work when you can’t get anyones attention to get a drink! For a place that’s not cheap for the type of food they serve, which in defense was lovely when it did arrive! I think their service needs to brought up to par with the hype that surrounds this restaurant.
