One has popped up (pun intended) in Brighton. Its full of forty year old skateboarders and uni cyclists.

Teabag + water + kettle + cup + underpaid staff + premises + boss's mortgage + boss's cocaine = £2.49

And rates, gas, electricity, insurance, etc. The 2p teabag or 8p Weetabix is pretty immaterial.

Do you work for the CBI?

 

[8ball]

Weetabix for a fiver makes pie & mash for a tenner look reasonable.

You should see what Jamie Oliver charges for a wee bit of pasta, tomato and asparagus.

Do you work for the CBI?

Not knowingly.

just goes to show how many people there are with more money than sense.

To be fair, they realised that the procurement, preparation and immediate presentation of some ingredients is only a very small part of what people are paying for, then they took the ball and really ran with it. You sometimes need someone to go really too far to see how far things can really go without breaking.

Hard to respect them setting up in Dubai, though.

I thought that but then realised that they'll only be spanking Dubai expats, so fuck 'em. Hope they charge treble.

In a couple of years, these two have made themselves quite wealthy with an idea that very few people thought would fly at all. Fair play to them.

Skatebearders on pogo sticks.

At least his restaurants provide amusement by hemorrhaging money and periodically going bust.

That's his xmas book title sorted!

Switched the telly over from "Jamie Cooks Italy" last night.
Once I realised I'd read the programme title the wrong way round.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

perhaps there should be a weetabix squad in opposition to the pie & mash mob

 

[sealion]

Just don't throw milk at them

The last one is a bit much!

Please could a passing mod correct the thread title to reflect the fact that there has not been and is not a cereal killer cafe in Dalston?

“Going to the theatre is an experience, it’s like an investment and so you want to see something entertaining and moving. I feel like there needs to be a show set in the UK, about something which is going on now. Hamilton is hugely popular at the moment – but that’s about American politics several hundred years ago!”

Bit disappointing though -- by rights, it should be in the hidden backroom of a launderette in Hackney Wick or something.

 

[Reno]

The horror !

 

[isvicthere?]

There's one called Cereal Shooter here in Murcia, Spain.

I’m going to open one called Cereal Monogamist and only sell corn flakes.

 

[Chilli.s]

I gonna do a cordon bleu-esk one where basically you scrunch up a weetabix with a few matured (gone soft) sugar puffs and drizzled with chocolate milk. Cereal Offender.

 

[Riklet]

Most cereal is fucking rank anyway.

Urgh.
