Toulouse
So i took my girlfriend out for date night last week tuesday as we like to do date night every week, you know do our romance thing!
So toulouse what can i say ? I drive past the restaurant almost everyday after work- its located right on the end of the seafront chalk well end, those of you that live in southend. I have always had the impression it was a posh, expensive place to eat, so it was not too interesting, but it all became interesting when i noticed the early bird menu outside, 2 courses for £11.95 or 3 courses 14.95 between 4pm and 7pm, so you could pretty much paint a picture of what happened next.
