I had heard quite a lot about Gourmet Burger Kitchen and it had been recommended by quite a few people. Therefore when in London today at lunch we decided that we would give it a try. We went to the one in Covent Garden as that was where we were. It was very busy when we got there. Not surprising really as it is a bank holiday and it was lunchtime. We had to queue up but one of the waiters did come over and ask us how many of us there were and told us how long we would have to wait. He said it would only be 15 minutes and so we decided to wait.
The good news is we did only have to wait around ten minutes. We were seated on a nice clean table and given menus. The menus are on one sheet and so are fairly easy to look at. As you can guess by the name of the restaurant pretty much all the items on the menu are burgers. There is ...
Ainsley Harriott is one of Britain's most popular TV chefs. Multi-talented, this former comedian and musician returned to his first love, cooking, as the presenter of several high-profile BBC cookery programmes. He's invariably described as "flamboyant". I think he's a little OTT sometimes, and Ramsay certainly isn't a fan of his. But despite his zaniness he really is an excellent cook. Fast, simple, delicious food - I think that sums him up.
I own three of his books but the one I'm about to review here is "Gourmet Express". This is one of my all-time favourite cookbooks and would probably accompany me to the proverbial Desert Island. (I have a couple of hundred cookbooks, so that's not a small compliment.)

Advantages: NONE Disadvantages: poor quality meat, plain taste, bones in the meat
Firstly, let me say - I eat out very often...I love restaurants- This review is based on this chain of restaurants- my local being thurrock, essex.
I have now tried all but one of the many restaurants in the lakeside broadwalk area, at Thurrock- Essex.
This gourmet burger restaurant flagged a warning as soon as we walked in, and were asked to order at the till & pay before eating.
As a frequent diner- I have to say, in all my experiances of dining out- when they want you to pay before you eat- there is never a happy ending.
This was no exception.
Basically I found three pieces of bone in my burger (maybe gourmet to a pig), one piece actually hurt my tooth as I took a bite - and it got stuck in my tooth... I stopped eating- and felt too sick to carry on.
I told the server, and she sent the manager over- he did not seem too ...
