Title: What a Meal!
Post by: Darth Loo-knee on 08 July 2008, 15:51:15
Brother-in-Laws birthday yesterday so we went out for a meal, at a place called Jimmy Spices in Solihull.....
You can go back as many times as you like for different foods.... chinese, thai, indian, italian :y

I loved the Thai Red Curry or something like that it was lovely think it was similar to what Dundee's Mrs cooked us at Newent last year :y

Really worth a visit, I could not hardly move never mind drive home... wished I had put elastic waisted trousers on ;D ;D

I used to live in Solihull, but don't remember that restaurant.

Sounds like a good place to eat 8-)

Was there a good selection?  Mio is the same idea in Cov, but we very were disappointed.  :(

Looks like the same kind of thing as Mio.  A few things out in the buffet, and you ask for the rest.  Probably good stuff, but if you don't know what to ask for then it's a recipe for frustration.

My wife and I went to a similar sort of place in Colchester - it styled itself as a Noodle Bar, but it had all sorts of food - all the stuff we tried was excellent.

Best bit was that as we went in, they said "Ah, Old People - you can eat for half price" - so we did. :) :) :)

My wife couldn't decide whether to be pleased about the discount or offended that they'd taken her for an OAP :)
