Title: VMF Restaurant
Post by: Rip Van We Go Again on February 28, 2011, 07:24:59 AM: Went there Friday.

It's brilliant, food was to a very, very high standard and it was just £19.95 per head for 3 courses.

Strongly recommend it.

The kids who work there are great too.

Yeah saw that. Found it a bit funny when the narrator said the kitchen wasn't Dunne's natural habitat.

No. It is the match day Directors' area. I asked for a doggy bag and, sparing you the detail, I think I may now therefore possess Mr Lerner's branded ceramic fruit salad plate!
