Merchant City

It's a chilly September night in Glasgow. LR's got 20% off vouchers for a new Japanese place, so we're heading east to try it out.

We get there and in Damage's words, it "looks like a supermarket"; it does, but with less slightly atmosphere than my local Morrisons. Tentatively, LR asks to see a menu before we commit. This proves to be a wise move since the lowest price on it seems to be £15. Although it's difficult to concentrate on what the menu says due to a commotion to our left - there's a large party of diners being 'entertained' by a chef who's standing in the gap in their square table chucking around what looks like slices of fried potato. The chef is making a hell of a lot of noise and the diners seem slightly uncomfortable, like they're being forced to have a good time.

We politely leave and go over the road to Ad Lib, and it turns out to be the first meal out I've had when I've not begrudged paying £10 for my main course (catfish burger with crayfish on top, since you ask).

Nice.
