    Best of luck with the new venture.

    Haven't been down that way in years. How did you expand it? Did you knock through into Vinnie Lennon's old place?

    Tried it out at the weekend.
    In the old cook house everything on a burger included cheese, chilli, garlic, and it did not include tomatos.

    The chips in the polystyrene (spelling) cheap trays just didn't have the same feel to them.

    Overall its ok, nothing special but still good to have it back, decent food in an ideal location. Overall its more like a regular chipper than the old cookhouse.

    I got everything on the quarter pounder when I got it, although they did ask if I wanted everything and I said everything except chilli. Unless it was just the cheeseburger or regular burger you got as that now comes with lettuce and tomato, which I don't mind but will probably just ask for red sauce and onions like before next time. ;)

    Everything to me was chilli, garlic, coleslaw, chicken sauce, ketchup onion lettuce and cheese.
    I think thats what everything in the cookhouse meant.
    You would need a forktruck to pick the burger up out of the box, and destroy your top in sauce as you bit into the burger!

    The polystyrene trays (while possibly bigger) are harder to eat as the chips and toppings fall over the edge when your trying to eat them up.
    In the old chicken lunch box you had the wall to leverage the food against so to have a nice vairety of food on the fork in one mouthful.

    By the way, I am a grown up man, I don't order regular or cheese burgers! As Peter Kay said about Garlic Bread " Its for Kids!"

    LOOL, never liked getting the chips in the chicken boxes, no restrictions with the trays and tinfoil!! Everything on the burger is exactly as you said and yeah they are not heaping it on now but still the same taste......I'm starving now :droooool: :p
