Restaurant Review by Judith

***** Tandoori Oven Restaurant, Bryan Park Centre, Grosvenor and Cumberland
Roads, Bryanston
Not the warmest night out but with sporting events gluing everyone to their
screen, it meant a quiet night out! A friendly restaurant which is
very conscious of its cultural links. Small and set in the corner, it
seems to be the only restaurant here. We settled for hot chocolate and Du Toitskloof Sauvignon Blanc, then ordered cheese samoosas. These were very
tasty and made in the traditional flat triangle style.
This was followed by us sharing a half Tandoori chicken accompanied by a
garlic naan. The chicken was wonderful - succulent and accompanied by
salad. The naan was just right.
All together a worthwhile experience with friendly service and plenty of time
to talk and enjoy the evening. I can recommend them.

Green Tip – Washing Balls
Laundry balls (or washing balls) are available from your
local hardware shop or Verimark at around R60. They claim to allow you to
do up to 1000 loads of washing without detergents, saving you a fortune in
washing powder and reducing the amount of phosphates you end up dumping into the
rivers. We are now on our second one, the first having been chewed up by
the Labrador when the ball fell off the window-sill where it was being sunned.
Do they work? Well, yes, they appear to, though you still need stain
remover (as you would with detergent). How do they work? The makers
of washing balls make varied pseudo-scientific claims, none
of which have any scientific validity. It seems that, if they work better
than using plain water, it is the pounding action of the ball, much like our
ancestors used to beat the washing on the rocks in the river. You might
get the same effect using golf balls. The corollary is that the
washing-machine is doing the washing, and the claims of
washing-powder makers are exaggerated: If you feel that laundry balls are
just a placebo, you can certainly cut down on your washing-powder without ill
effect on your laundry, and thereby benefit the environment.

Julius went to his favourite fish
restaurant. The salmon looked good, but he wanted something a
bit smaller.
So he ordered the salmonella.

Last month Pick 'n Pay in Morning Glen Mall gave us a free Pineware
automatic jug kettle.
It happened like this: Our previous kettle died and I went to
buy a new one. The shelf marking said R79.99. At the
till, it rang up as R99.99. So I queried it. They
checked the shelf marking and sure enough, the bar code
corresponded but the price did not. They offered me a R20
refund. "What about the scan-right guarantee?" I said.
They don't advertise it like they used to, but Pick 'n Pay's
scan-right guarantee says that for any item if the shelf price
doesn't match the till price and the bar code corresponds, the
first item is free and any more are at the lower price. To
his credit, the manager didn't argue at all, and I got my kettle
free.
Thank You, Pick 'n Pay Morning Glen, for keeping your
promise! Now that the promotion is over, the same kettle
is selling for about R130.
