How would Frej be doing if it wasn't a pop-up?

You are missing the point.


No I'm not.

Well, you know. We can have a conversation, or...

I'm not sure I know the point any more.

This is an ancient debate, no? Chowhouders will eat 4 star food in a garage and say the food holds its own and it doesn't matter about the environment. Others will say let's have everything up to a relaxing and professional standard.

It will be impossible to tell unless AB reveals what point he's talking about.

Slick. I see what you did there. I tend to ask:

1. What kinds of thins are necessary for good food (a good waiter? yes. A bidet temperature control guy and high thread counts? unlikely)? The things that are not can probably be classified as silly artifice.
2. Is it okay to prefer one kind of silly artifice to another? (why certainly!)
3. Should people who like one kind of silly artifice (say those places you sit in a really sweet Belmont Chair where garcon pre-chews sir's food?) really being casting aspersions on those who prefer and feel comfortable with another kind of silly artifice (say sitting on park benches in a junkyard while listening to rawk music with grimy artist friends) so long the necessaries are there? (probably not. Though silly artifice can be kind of fun, and you might as well embrace the post industrial junk yards and the gilded dining mansions so long as everything else is up to snuff).

I like this poll.

I do know one thing for sure, you're getting worked up and your speeling and grammar are going to hell. I went to skool so I know.

Worked up? This is a pleasant distraction. Though you provide good reasons for why I shouldn't write when talking on the phone.

Here I think my message of harmony and inclusiveness is going to transcend generations and instead I get Dissed.

I know! But I didn't think you'd already started drinking the water to get ready (kidding, by building on my awful pun)!

You Canadians do have a sense of humor.

And you were one step ahead of me. I'd taken my mind off Diss coz now we want to move to Lavenham. How cute is this?
