Who'd have thought there'd so much fuss over a bit of snow! The way some of my fellow passengers were jabbering on you might have thought it was the coming of the Apocalypse rather than something that is par for the course in the coldest part of the year. I'm meeting up in Reading with friends from University and we go to a local all-you-can-eat restaurant called Spice Oven, which appears to capture most of the popular cuisines you'd expect to find in the larger towns of the country: Chinese, Thai, Malaysian, Italian, Indian, Spanish and French!
By the time we reach the restaurant, the tiny flecks of snow which began falling at sunset, have started to settle and get progressively larger, though only sufficiently to set a winter's scene and continuing in the Christmas theme I gorge myself, almost until it hurts. As these places go, this is a good one; the turnover is decent which means that the food is relatively fresh. I apply some symmetry to my meal by having two starters and two desserts and as I sit back, I marvel at the bridge over the fish pond in the centre of the restaurant, which is the access to the main buffet, satisfied that I'd got my money's worth at £14.95.
