Stretching the truth a tad
September 24th, 2006 Posted in Mundane musings
As you may recall from yesterday’s post, Dad and I were looking forwards to tasting the “finest food served in the Vale of Glamorgan” as the sign outside The Star pub in Wick would have us believe.
I can only assume that there was a “Not” missing from the beginning of that sign - based on today’s fare, I’m not even sure it’s the finest food served in Wick (and there’s no other pub!).
Well, maybe that’s just a tad unfair. The food was edible (soup could have been a bit warmer and the penne pasta significantly less overcooked) and it seemed that the people at other tables were actually sending their meals back! I don’t think we’ll be back there again.

I’ve got a horrible feeling we’ve “eaten” there too, back in the days when the in-laws lived in Llantwit and had a list of the worst eateries in Wales (based on price, not food). Do they do a “two fer one” special for pensioners on weekdays?
