Wasted Calories and Ruined Nights

£5.00

Jay Rayner isn’t just a trifle irritated. He is eye-gougingly, bone-crunchingly, teeth-grindingly angry. And admit it – that’s the only reason you’re here, isn’t it? Because you don’t really want to hear his eulogies about the finest dining experiences known to man, do you? You want him to suffer abysmal meals – preferably at eye-watering prices – so that you can gorge on the details and luxuriate in vicarious displeasure. Well, feast your eyes. Revel in Jay’s misfortune as he is subjected to ‘gummy condiments full of machismo and casual violence’ and ‘gravy like an episode of Downton Abbey’. He hopes you enjoy reading his accounts of these twenty miserable meals a damn sight more than he didn’t enjoy experiencing them.
