I always thought oysters looked regurgitated already. Never had one but suspect it's like sucking phlegm off a slate.
That said, and in keeping with this thread, I'm sure wheelers do the best phlegm on slate around

Last weekend we had visitors from out of town, one of whom couldn't walk very far. So we went to Kitgum on Preston Road opposite The Joker, and Curio on Clyde Road (opposite the Duke of Yorks). Both small plates (sigh) and Kitgum bigger plates weren't very big, but the quality of food was very high. Most excellent daal in Kitgum, which is East African / Gujarati. Curio was more snacky, I guess, and Mediterranean.
Going to a vegetarian restaurant on Saturday evening. Feel compelled to tell you; getting into character.
Are you going as a turnip?
As turnip is probably about right for me!
Wait till you go to a vegan one. That'll need its own thread.

Castigated and underrated?
Much maligned but loved by the more discerning?
Here’s the menu.

Ever wish you'd thought more before posting?
The tasting menu wine pairing doesn’t excite me, so I’ll go for a bottle I think. Can any wine experts* comment on this? Anything of note?

@Machiavelli and @McTavish ?
Despite your rudeness, I'll give you my opinion fwiw... I'd go for the PJ Kuhn Kabinett or the Franz Keller. If you're feeling adventurous, try the Odinstal.
They need to be served in decent glasses of course. If they try to serve them in St John-type glasses, you might as well drink Liebfraumilch tbh.

Apols, I only know of Keller from that list and even that's a limited acquaintance, so go with G1976 suggestions. They all look compatible with the food you'd be eating. Enjoy
I'd forgotten @McTavish was knowledgable on wine as well. I hope he accepts my sincere apology.
The feeling adventurous comment intrigues me, what makes Odinstal such?
PS I'll report back on the wine glasses.
The grape. People think it's chardonnay-like - but then they get baked apple, almond, dried fruit, sometimes cinnamon. It's unusual. I like it.
Now this interests me.
Way too much german crap on this thread.....
