Her and I are in the lucky position of having dinner made for us by one of her friends tonight, though She does warn me that her friend is not the best cook. Sure enough when we turn up, we wake him up, unprepared, by ringing the doorbell. We step inside and briefly laugh about it before a rather sheepish silence descends on the part of our host. Luckily, The Wrestlers is close by so we decamp there for dinner.
This pub has been renown for Thai food in Cambridge for quite a while now, though this is the first time I've been. It's not the cosiest place with it's hard furniture and harsh lighting, but we're not here for that; we look at the menu on the bar. It's a double sided A4 sized sheet of Thai dishes, of which I pick a classic Tom Yum soup - hot and sour with my choice of meat, in this case chicken. After a short wait, a large bowl is placed in front of me with a side plate of rice and I'm glad to report that it is everything a Tom Yum soup should be, hot, fragrant and sourly zingy: perfect for clearing out a cold. Costing around £9, it is not badly priced either for Cambridge.
