    Dunno if they are in London too but i dont see why not, Frankie and Bennys is a gorgeous place to eat, its like a 70's New York Restraunt and its got quite a varied menu too.

    Don't want to appear snobby - but I am (at least when food's involved) so I guess it's inevitable. KFC, Brewer's Fayre, Beefeater? The request was for somewhere nice.

    Trouble with chains is that they mostly produce food via microwaves etc. Little is freshly prepared on the premises. Even salads come in ready-prepared.

    I'd go for a little independent place where you know it's been prepared, hopefully, on the day you eat it.

    I used to work for Granada - trust me on this (Henry Higgins, Harry Ramsdens, Little Chef etc etc).

    This is true but with my suggestion of Frankie and Bennys all the food is produce there and then, the one that i go to in teesside has the kitchen right next to the restaurant bit so you can see the chef cooking it for you!

    We went to Frankie n Bennys on Sunday, our first time there and I have to say the food was great. You could see the kitchen and watch the chefs do their thing, if you want to.....cooking is not my strong point, so not really interested in all that.

    The only down side was my pasta was cold, but as soon as i mentioned this to our waitress she took it back an brought me a fresh dish, no messing, and I wasnt made to feel a bitch for saying this.

    Hubby said he was gonna try the same when he had nearly finished his steak :lol:

    It is a really fantastic place to eat the only thing i would say is that some dishes can be a tad over priced but you defo pay for what you get its gorgeous, never had a problem and been there loads in the past few months

    Did you see the whole Birthday routine?
    Thats really good, except its annoyin when there is like 5 Birthdays during your meal, you get abit annoyed with "Congratulations" LOL

    They do have them round here, and I've eaten there before, they are quite nice. Just wondered if anyone knew of any other places.

    I like Browns. There is one on St Martins Lane, and one on Islington Green. Yummy food.
