    Madras Indian on Anlaby road, corner of Bean Street, family owned, smart place, cleanest kitchen I've ever seen in a restaurant and I've done work in quite a few, the door opens direct into the restaurant so is easily viewed.

    I like to see the terror in a Maître D's face when I ask to see the kitchen, I've only done it twice and both times walked out, the reason I asked is that my wife always uses the bogs before we order, that's the standard usually, clean bogs, clean kitchens.

    The sights I've seen in restaurant and pub kitchens would make most people probably rather eat at home off your own toilet floor.

    On about chinese i suspect most of you would not eat traditional chinese food eaten by the chinese folks themselves.

    i am in Shekou PRC right now with friends and colleagues waiting for half a chicken to come with some rice.

    **** me it has just turned up with half a head and one foot still attached.

    Chicken feet in china are a real delicacy in some places. YUK

    Give me a roast beef dinner anytime.

    Pumping truck would have been there to empty the Grease traps. All restaurants have them

    At least it didn't have a chicken fetus inside it.

    They eat chicken fetus in china. Raw.

    I've been in the kitchen of The Ivy on a few occasions (for work reasons) and it's f**king minging.

    Naturally they didn't let us anywhere near the posh part front-of-house.

    But the kitchen f**king stank. Horrible.

    EDIT: I suppose I should add that it was a few years back now.

    Mate of mines dad is originally from Jamaica and he doesn't understand why when BBQing we don't cook and eat the feet as he reckons they're the best bit. Mind you, he told me and me mate he couldn't understand why we'd eat pate on toast, and didn't we know what was in it??

    Chicken feet don't have any meat on them, it's just like eating chicken skin.

    A friend of mine in Hong Kong always took me to his favourite restaurant, which was famous for pigeons feet. Quite possibly the most pointless meal you'll ever eat, there's **** all on them.

    Chicken skin is the best bit on a chicken, I might have to start getting them from a farm with feet included if the feet are like eating its skin.

    You can buy chicken feet in the Chinese supermarket in town.

    Or so my Chinese work colleague tells us.

    I went to Level on Newland Ave on Saturday night, 2 starters, 2 mains, 2 pints for £37.55 and the meals were ****ing delicious. Strongly recommend it.

    I can't imagine there is anything much worse to eat than chickens feet. Maybe pig anus or bulls testicle but chicken feet sound proper rank. :emoticon-0119-puke:

    I thought that was going to be about the Lincolnshire man that went mad when he caught his daughter pleasuring herself with a cucumber. "You dirty cow" he screamed, "I was going to eat that later, and now it'll taste of cucumber".

    Funnily enough, I used to know a girl who claimed she used a cucumber, put it back in the fridge and waited for her step dad to eat it. I don't think she was lying either...

    That's deeply disturbing on so many levels.

    How on earth did this thread get onto women using cucumbers as a aid. You lot have dirty minds.

    Edit, just noticed the link above. Oh dear! I may never eat again.
