The fat of the land
Eating out is a treat. So imagine the pleasure of eating out at two of Birmingham's finest restaurants on the same day.
First came a cookery school followed by a four-course lunch at Simpson's. Then that night I sampled numerous new dishes at Lasan based on the management's recent tour of India.
Strangely enough, next day I wasn't very hungry at all.
But suddenly, the appeal of trousers with elasticated waistbands seems all too apparent...

How was the cookery school?
I got the impression from their website that it was more demonstration than hands on cookery, is that accurate?
It was a demo rather than a hands-on course (though they do offer hands-on courses).
The tutors were the writer/chef Ursula Ferrigno and one of Simpson's upcoming stars, James Cross. It was very enjoyable and illuminating.
There'll be a piece in the Mail on Thursday.
