The All New Pastis and Miss D lunch date report, suggestions and comments thread

[Pastis]

I went for the roast pork (not in cider), MissD went for the roast chicken...  'n' diet cokes 

[Miss Demeanour]

See I can be good 

Not helped by couple on opposite side of our table devouring some delicious looking chocolate pudding and ice cream 

Lovely lunch with lovely man though 

[Miss Demeanour]

Excellent lunch with the delightful and new svelte MissD 

And they say alcohol is bad for you

A courageous display of self discipline there.. not ordering the pud... even though it meant you sitting on your hands whilst the other couple devoured theirs

FFS ... it was heaving  .  There was some kid of Victorian Fashion show sale going on upstairs  and in spite of my thinking that most couples would be on hols with their brats the place was full to the brim. We had to share a table with another couple... 

MissD arrived before me and had allegedly been wielding her axe over several tables inviting them to a swift departure 
She did well; a table by the window with the bloodstains removed by the waitress

Meeting Pastis and another mate in the Lamb, Lamb's Conduit St. later.

Looked it up and found this review:

This is a quality boozer - charming interior, good Young's ales and even the occasional evening of readings in the function room upstairs. As the entry suggests, it even has quality local drunks to add colour. Although on one occasion, an office worker did vomit straight into her empty pint glass which I could really have done without.

Looks like Miss D knows it then

I used to go there a lot when I worked in Holborn ~ in fact I have posted about the place in here before.

Thinking about it ~ The Lamb used to close at weekends, as did the other good pub in that area The Rugby (just round the corner). No trade when the offices were all shut you see.

Still I am sure that the "locals" will know.

My mate brought his sister (Pastis met her). I am in lurv 

[Pastis]

Tis true!  Methinks Nick falls in lurve very easily (not that I blame him)

Only went into The Lamb to hear the Polyphon anyhoo .... spent most of the time in the restaurant drinking mucho collapso, digestifs, followed by further digestifs ...

[Miss Demeanour]

Boys behaving badly 

And does this lady seem interested in our Nick ? - feel free to speculate 

[Nick]

She was luvverly 

Also bonkers

[Miss Demeanour]

Aaaahhh that would explain the attraction to her
