Learned that lesson at about age 10, decided to warm up some butter still in the foil. Saw a massive flame and Mom I think hit CLEAR OFF immediately. Crazy how cheap technology becomes Laz. I have a great memory for numbers, that microwave was $700 in 1986, but the whole brick house & land was only $126K. Now same home is ~ $1M(Mom & Dad should worked something out during their divorce and one of them kept it) and microwaves can be had for $80!

Golfingboy Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I’m maintaining my weight right now, but last week I had cereal 3 times late-night. Good snack, I thought I was crazy having carbs before bed, but no change on the scale. All good, so tonight I picked this box up as I thought it’s known for being healthier(was on sale too) Well I was VERY disappointed to learn this little factoid: SPECIAL K HAS ZERO FIBER !!! We all know as we age fiber is a good thing, keeps us “regular”. But to have NONE, I’m quite surprised. Back to plain oatmeal it is, I know I’ll get plenty of fiber there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, everyone seems to be out of stock here in Montreal. Readily available 70 miles South of me, and I’d go in a heartbeat, but the last decade and especially since COVID, I must have a very valid reason to cross the border.

I was thinking just the same when i first saw the picture, unless the gravy jug is the size of a pint beer mug then the amount of mash looks minimal. Give Nicky's a try Phanto, proper real mash and loads of it....I often have the braised steak in there, it comes with mash, cabbage, broccoli and carrots plus a good helping of gravy, superb.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only been in there once to buy a Poppy a few years ago. My impression of the place was a room with tables lined up, like a works canteen. Has it improved since then, perhaps with a little atmosphere? I have to say though that the girls working there that I see popping in and out look delicious !!

It's still much the same Mr. Dangle, A bit as you say canteen like with a dash of Transport cafe in the mix. But the food, at least for me and most of my mates in Pattaya, is good solid and satisfying fare. Nicky the owner, a rather rotund lady normally seen sitting at the end of the bar, has been in business there for over 18 years, which is a recommendation in itself.........
