Everything in moderation

It's Fat Friday today! This often involves a trip to a eaterie nearby to the office. Today, was a trip to Wasabi, the sushi bar in The Printworks. Sushi is probably not considered junk food but they do serve "fried things" such as gyozas and fried pork cutlets which are extremely tasty. Experts often suggest that everything in moderation is perfectly fine. However, this rule often doesn't apply to me and the 11 plates I consumed is moderately more than is recommended, especially for a lunch.

How can one refuse tasty gyoza dumplings and fried pork cutlet? There is a very reasonable set meal available at Wasabi that consists a choice of one main dish and three plates of sushi. However, the lunchtime offer of £1 a plate is too good to ignore and I often find myself opting for this over the set meal.



It was a very respectable effort from me today but my eleven plates still falls a little short of my thirteen plates consumed one lunchtime. On that note it's time to go to a meeting and possibly spend the rest of the afternoon struggling to remain awake! Fat Fridays....embrace them!
