Doggy Bags .

tiggypiro !!!! you are a mind reader! lol

I wote a "lovely" review my poor parents were put down in the dungeons! 2 floors below ground floor!! and NO! window (well you wouldn't have would you) never ever go down that route never!!!!

Most good restaurants will willingly serve small portions if you ask!

MY younger DGC think a Harvester is a great treat.

Ariadne , presumably they charge accordingly ??

Of course.

Shows where my mind is - when I saw the notice 'doggy bags' I assumed they were dog poo bags.

Glad I wasn't the only one, Dorset!

Reminds me of eating out with daughter and grand-kids a couple of years ago at an Italian chain. The youngest left quite a bit of pasta but since he likes it cold we asked for a doggy bag. It was brought rather reluctantly with a long form that mum had to fill in absolving them of any blame if he got food poisoning from their left overs!

Nonu - I love that you called Birmingham sophisticated I'm not sure some would agree but I do. The Harvester which I went to last was in West Bromwich ! They have a lovely new little shopping centre there are are doing their best (and succeeding) to improve the badly neglected town. In a couple of years they may qualify for 'sophisticated' too.

KatyK . been pretty busy today , so will off air later as I am going to relax in front of TV with a smaltzy Christmas movie .
No though . One has to be firm with oneself , eh !!

dorsetpennt I thought this thread would be about poo bags too. Just popped in to complain about people leaving them lying around, pool preserved for posterity.

Okay, I'll complain about doggy bags instead. My mother was always terrible in smart restaurants wanting to pockets left over scraps, literally for her dog.
No worries about taking nice food home though.
