Harvester Restaurants

Advantages: Always one close by, quick turn out, children are welcome and catered for.
Disadvantages: Toilets can be quite disturbing, not all dishes taste as good they are described.

...Harvester Restaurants Restaurant Reviewed: Stag and Hounds Winchester Road Basingstoke Hampshire (next to Comet and Home Base) The Harvester chain of Restaurants have over 2000 outlets across the United Kingdom and owned and operated by Mitchells and Butlers, who claim to be the UK's leading operator of managed pubs, bars and restaurants. Harvester claim to offer healthy eating, drinking and entertainment in one reasonably priced outlet. **** Parking and Getting a Table ***** As with most of the Harvester's I have visited, there is usually ample free parking at the rear of the establishment. However on Saturday evenings and Sunday lunch times these places are heaving with customers, so avoid the crowds, go early and if possible ring and reserve a table. The Stag and Hounds is no exception but fortunately...

Review of Harvester Restaurants

A nice result but is it really that easy?

Advantages: excellent colour
Disadvantages: Quite hard to make sure youve applied it to all areas.

...I have recently gone from blonde back to my natural colour and my hairdresser told me that despite putting a permanent brown on top of the blonde, it will fade and I would need to go back and keep having semi permanent dye on it to build up the pigment. Now I am trying to save a few pennies at the moment so decided to give it a go myself. I kept putting it off and putting it off until my hair got to the point where it looked quite gingery. It was only by chance that I was looking at the reduced aisle in Tesco and saw a box of this ?Nice and Easy? hair dye for just £1.80. I know nothing about the ?good and bad? of hair dye so thought this was probably as good as any. In the box I got two bottles of dye which were suppose to be mixed together and shaken and then applied to the hair immediately. I also got a big pouch of conditioner...

The Seafood Restaurant

Advantages: Great fish, sides
Disadvantages: None

...about three months before we wanted to go and even then it was a bit hit and miss to if I would get a table or not. The first couple of dates I suggested I was given a table time of 10pm which was way to late but eventually I got a table on a Monday night out of season. The restaurant has its own dedicated telephone reservation line and details of this and all his businesses can be found at http://www.rickstein.com/Restaurants-and-Shops.html. Even though the restaurant is right by the harbour it doesn't have spectacular views over the water which is quite disappointing. It actually overlooks the car park. It's a shame because there are a few tables around the side of the restaurant with nice glass floor to ceiling windows that you can have a drinka t before your dinner and it would be lovely if you ahd a nice view of the boats etc, but oh...

Naturally Nice 'n' Easy

Advantages: easy to use, good results
Disadvantages: none for me

...I have been colouring my hair for years. My natural colour is mousy brown and it is very boring. My hair has been all different colours including blonde and I have used many different brands of hair colour. The colour I always end up going back to is red and my favourite brand is Clairol Nice ‘n’ Easy. These days I tend to go for the subtle shades and I am at the age where the grey hairs are starting to appear so I like to keep these well covered. I don’t usually pay the full price of £5.69 as I wait until it is on special offer in Boots and I bought it last week for £3.79. Boots usually have a good choice of colours in Blonde, Red, Brunette and Black. Each box on display shows a model on the front with hair colour for that shade. So it is easy to see what the colour is likely to be. Each colour is clearly marked...

Ze Restaurant!

Advantages: Good show, interesting
Disadvantages: Slightly worse than last year`s

...The Restaurant is a TV programme shown on BBC 2 on Thursday nights! The show is a reality TV show and is similar to something like the Apprentice but a food version. This show is obviously based on the concept and success of many other TV shows like the Apprentice, food shows like Masterchef and all the other shows like Dragon`s Den, X Factor e.t.c The idea of the show is for world famous chef Raymond Blanc to find a couple to help him run a restaurant and the couples are gradually knocked out week by week until they have the winning couple. It is in its third season and seems to have got a bit worse. I still enjoy it but felt it used to be more exciting and interesting. There used to be two shows with one of them being a challenge but they seem to have got rid of this which is a shame! Raymond has help from his two assistants e...

Review of BBC2 - The Restaurant

It really is Nice'n easy.

Advantages: Good even multi-tonal hair colour.
Disadvantages: Just the clearing up after.

...I have used Clairol Nice'n easy permanent hair colour for at least 20 years and have been highly satisfied each and every time with the outcome. Having a daughter hairdresser, I can always get a good cut and the only job left for me to do is to hide the ever increasing grey. A spare 30 minutes can usually be found every 5-6 weeks to apply the colour. The range of colours is vast starting at somewhere around No.96 which is the lightest blonde and going through the range to Blue/black. I use 101 which is Natural Baby Blonde and now that Clairol have incorporated blends into the colour to give a multi-tonal look, I feel that my own natural hair colour is in there somewhere.! The complete kit retails for around £4.75, but look out for offers and sometimes they can be ,Buy one Get one free, if you are lucky enough to spot them. The box is...

New Hair is Nice 'n' Easy

Advantages: Easy to use, looks good, doesn't take a long time
Disadvantages: None!

...While doing the weekly shop at Asda on a Friday morning, my friend decided to try another hair colour. Not having coloured my hair for about four years, and being bored with mouse-brown (my natural colour) I also picked up a pack of hair dye. After a few minutes wrangling over what colour to go for, I decided to go for Clairol Nice'n'Easy 120 - Natural Dark Brown. I am aware this review is quite long, so I've put information under headings. If you feel a section isn't interesting or relevant to you, please feel free to skip bits! WHAT COLOUR SHOULD I CHOOSE? ******************************************** There are a few things to consider when dyeing your hair. First, what is your natural colour? It's never a good idea to use a home hair-dye if you're planning on changing your look dramatically, so unless you can afford...

Review of Clairol Nice 'n Easy

My favourite Turkish restaurant on Green Lanes

Advantages: Great food, quick, friendly service, inexpensive
Disadvantages: Can be crowded and noisy on weekend nights

... INTRODUCTION Diyarbakir is a Turkish Restaurant on Green Lanes (A10), in the borough of Haringey, North London, a 7-8 minute walk from Manor House Tube station and practically seconds away from Harringay Green Lanes rail entrance. Undoubtedly, the densest Turkish restaurant population in London, if not, the whole planet, including Istanbul itself. I moved to this area in 2005 and my decision was mainly down to the great value restauration and the Mediterranean (Turkish - Cypriot - Greek - Middles Eastern) groceries having grown up on the stuff. THE RESTAURANT You can spot the trays of lovely, colourful daily stews from the street as they are displayed in the window. As you enter, the long chilled counter is on your left with a huge menu board overhead. The decor is simple, now repainted a warm yellow and red. Unlike...

Review of Diyarbakir Turkish Restaurant

Claimed to be the oldest restaurant in Dalyan

Advantages: Gorgeous surroundings, loads of special dishes, the clay pot, waiters look the part
Disadvantages: Expensive wine and water, relatively small portion sizes, loads of manky cats

...strays and could be carrying a number of nasty things and they are allowed to sit with tourists as they eat? I appreciate that many tourists want them there, and the waiters are only doing their job by keeping the customers satisfied, but what about those that do not want this, such as I? Conclusion Sini is one of those strange places that excel in some areas and fail miserably in others. Having a clay pot broken at the table by the waiting staff dressed in the traditional attire was an experience in itself, and one that we did not get in any other restaurant in Dalyan. The location and surroundings were perfect, the food was very nice although it wasn?t as tasty as other place we ate in and other than the water our drinks were reasonably priced. There were a few things that ruined the experience for me including the way...

Review of Sini Restaurant, Dalyan

Nice'neasy? You bet it is.

Advantages: Great colour, Soft hair, Inexpensive, Easy to use.
Disadvantages: None I've found.

...This is one of the easiest hair dyes I have ever used. It comes in a wide range of colours, in fact far too many to list. < Packaging> It comes in a no nonsense white box, with the name Clairol on the top and the colour code in the right hand corner.( I chose 118c which is Natural Medium Chestnut Brown as this is the nearest to my colour). There is a womans head shot and the words nice'neasy below that. On the side is the usual safety warnings about allergies etc, and the warning that it is not to be used on Children. On the opposite side is colour charts showing how your hair should look. <Inside the Box> Inside the box you will find a blue bottle containing you colour formula (60ml), Colour activating creme in a white bottle (60 ml) and a brown tube of colour seal gloss conditioner in a brown tube (57 ml). A pair...
