Duck noodle wrap £2.50

Setting my expectations somewhere around the £2.50 price mark (that being the leftover change in my trouser pocket) I meandered into the famously five-star Wings restaurant’s fast-food outlet all a-flutter at the prospect of being able to afford half a pot of aromatic noodles.

Noodles, yeah?  With some bits of duck and sauce, right?  In a wrap, OK?  And that’s it!  For £2.50!  What’s not to like?  Why didn’t I think of it first?  Is it because noodles are essentially a variation on bread, and therefore putting them in a wrap is a bit like having a bread sandwich?  Maybe.  In any case I tell you what: it wasn’t bad.  The sauce was pretty surprisingly tasty and the sheer “I’m really eating food here” sensation of filling your gob with noodles in a wrap was quite fun.  Till it was over.  And it was over fast.  It looks like a fairly decent size for what it is.  And I suppose it is.  But a grown man would need to consume at least two of these to stop himself from going to Quality Save in Piccadilly Gardens immediately afterwards even though lunch time is nearly over just to order 59 pence worth of “37% Chocolate” Chocolate Cookies and scoffing the lot to fill up on whilst his work-mates look on and shake their heads whispering to each other about what a fat git he really is.  Just saying is all . . .

I’m drowning in the hoi sin of your lies, so fill me with your noodly goodness.
