Food Champs vs Food Chumps (1)
Before this latest lockdown malarkey I enjoyed a great Burger and Halloumi fries at The Meat Bar in Glasgow's West Regent Street.
We were met at this door of this American style diner where our temperatures were checked before being shown to our socially distanced table.
The staff wore face coverings at all times and customers were required to do so as well, if they moved away from their tables to visit the rest rooms, for example.
Everything was scrupulously clean and we enjoyed a really nice bottle of Spanish red wine with our meal - everyone was being extra careful and courteous, as you'd expect, and no one was remotely drunk or badly behaved.
The Meat Bar offers a wide range of burgers, sandwiches
steaks, salads, small plates and side dishes - and I plan to return when the government's scapegoating of restaurants is over.
Because you can't tell me its safer for people to spend as long as they like in a Costa Coffee or Starbucks, yet they can't go for a meal and enjoy a glass of wine in a city centre restaurant.
