A rat's tale

By Paul Fulford on January 31, 2008 6:31 PM |

The year of the rat - which doesn't actually scurry to life until next week - arrived early at the reliable Wing Wah restaurant in Nechells, where Wing Yip, charming owner of the Oriental food chain that bears his name, held his annual Chinese New Year lunch.
He and his sons hosted a fabulous meal for representatives of this area's media. Excellent dim sum was followed by a various main courses, best of which was a whole flatfish served with a tangy mango sauce. Beats the usual sandwich that I eat at my computer screen before dashing out to the bookies.
I've lunched out twice this week now. It's something I could get used to...once I get a pair of trousers with an elasticated waistband.
