27 of 50: The Society Rooms (Maidstone)


The last day of the Holidays.



Happy New Year everyone.  The blog is back.  It's been a bit of a long break.  Of course we have visited our local spoons many times (too many, probably), but with the new year it is time to get back to the mission.

delta is staying with us over the Christmas break.  We managed to surprise the wife as he came home by train one day early.  It really has been a great break, and so nice for gamma and delta to spend time together.

beta joined us for new years eve.  Ok, none of this is relevant to the blog.  Tomorrow the wife and I go back to work, so we thought it would be good to grab lunch out with delta one more time.

My brilliant driving brought us to the multi-story car park, which had a long queue getting in.  Being a BMW driver, it was cool to jump in front of the car to my right, only for me to take a wrong turning and go into the reserved area.  By the time I revered out my foe was in front and parking badly.  We found a space, got out of the car, and i think probably managed to do our entire trip before the foe had parked (they were making a real mess of it).

We walked though the town and found the pub.  I had not realised it was even here (we have visited 'star burger' many times in the past, for some reason gamma thinks this is in Canterbury, even though we have proved it has not).  Anyway, go past star burger, keep walking and there is a place that looks like an office block, and bam, that is the spoons.

After a little discussion we chose the Empire State Burger, the wife chose the triple chicken even though we agreed to remind her to not get it as she never manages to eat it all.

The wife went to the bar to order, which is a strange concept to me as i normally use the app.  She came back wearing a little of my shipyard, which of course i mocked.  She did get her own back as my drink tasted like bleach of pipe cleaner.  The wife took it back and got a replacement.

As usual I wanted to take a few photos, mainly to jog my memory.  delta was in a strange mood (stranger than normal), and decided to put a thumbs up in all my photos.  I finally managed to get one without his thumb.

Sadly that is about as exciting as it went.  Nice food (as always).  delta said he was full, but then got excited as we walked pasted Greggs.  Then even more excited as we went past a milk shake shop, which seemed to drag him in.
