What rumours? Not somewhere I go as I am Diabetic and chinese food is a no go for me.They are being re-furbished at the moment,i noticed when i drove past.
 
i heard they are been done up, ive been loved it, especially the chocolate fountain rolleyes would stuck me mouth under if know else was thererolleyes:x:))
 
Hm, I've been 3 times, it was pretty decent, good food for your money but my friend said in the sentinal it said they were shut down by health and hygrene because the refurbishment builders found dog and cat microchips and had them scans at the vets to find they were missing animals and apprantly animals (dogs and cats) have been found frozen in their freezers :( I don't know how true it is, *** it's from my best friend who says it was in sentinal, I live in Stafford so dont get sentinal but nothing was on their online site.

I live just along the road from there. I haven't been but my daughter and her boyfriend have, they said the staff were great.

I hope it is just rumours. I think if things like this were going on they would have covered their tracks a bit more, before having builders in?

Sounds unlikely to me rolleyes
 
I wasn't quick to believe, I just wanted to knowif anyone else had heard it, as i'vesaid I can't find it in the paper, my friend is now doubting what she first said lol.

As for chinese not using cats and dogs, they do in their own country (boyfriends parents seen it on menus when visiting China) and a local chinese in my town was closed down when I was a child for stealing peoples cats and dogs TIED up outside shops (you know how you do) well not cats but still... so it does happen.

It was very good when I went (last time for my 21st) so I hope so too. They actually dont have very good reviews when I checked online, about noise, sloppy food and such lol but hey if they don't wanna eat till they burst, why go to a buffet!?

It might happen in China, yes, but what you've said there is another urban legend. Some of them are perpetuated so much they are hard NOT to believe. It does nothing but keep some not very nice (and potentially racist) stereotypes going.

It's a bit like almost everyone knowing someone who knew someone who stole a penguin from a zoo. Not real.

That has just made me laugh Claire, have you ever seen when Dawn French did that on the TV, I thought it was really funny.:))

well.... this is a really stupid roomer isnt it...!
every chinese retaurant or take away has this roomer go round at some point...
i'd be really careful about posting stuff like this as your actually liable for slander...

I know someone who stole a penguin from a zoo! :))
 
Yeah I've heard the same thing about other Chinese places, it's always jsut rumours, but lots of people believe it when so many people say it. :)

I doubt they'd keep the microchips, they're tiny, like a grain of rice, they could just throw them away and nobody would ever find them :)

My friend says that when her uncle went to china, a man approached him with a dog, and nodded at him saying "you like? you like?" her uncle smile and nodded, saying he liked the dog. The man then went away and came back with him on a plate!
Now that's disgusting. That poor dog.. hope the man burns in hell.

Well, that's what they eat over there. They don't think it's wrong at all, even though some people in other parts of the world do. It's just part of their way of life.

People in India think us eating cows is wrong. But our society on average doesn't see that as wrong at all. It's just a way of life.
 
I must post the chocolate fountain sketch for anyone that hasn't seen it, hilarious!

Why do I not disbelieve this :0 Horrible - don't think I ever want to eat Chinese food again.
 
I don't understand why eating a dog is any different from eating a cow or sheep, Hairless Willow is right it's there culture and what they eat. If we didn't keep these animals as pets then I imagine people in our country would eat them too.

In fact I know someone who has no issue eating any animals. Sadly it's just how the world is - if your going to eat meat at least let it be well treated.

Just because it's not your culture doesn't mean you should start damning people who don't act like you. Cows are sacred across many countries yet they're eaten without a second thought here.

Think before you insult an entire culture.
 
My friend lived in Korea where they eat dogs. However, they only eat a certain breed of dog and other dogs are kept as pets. I think the story cited earlier in the thread about a dog being killed for someone's uncle is not likely to be true.

In any case, many people in the UK eat rabbit. When I was a child it was not unknown for rabbits kept as pets to be killed and eaten if the child got bored... In France, they also eat horsemeat.

I have a friend whose family is from the Philippines and she said they eat dogs there, even though she's never eaten one. She said there's no such thing as a stray dog there...
 
i still think eating dogs isnt really right, i mean dogs are so cleaver after all they are used to help the disabled and in search in rescues, you wouldn't use a cow in search and rescue or a cow for the deaf or blind.

dogs are so cleaver and pick up on many things we cant so yes i personally do think its so very wrong to eat dogs.

having never owned a cow before i cant coment on how they are but i know since i owned ex battery hens i would never eat caged eggs again before yes i did because i didnt know what their conditions were like but now i do so i **** wouldnt eat a cow again if i owned one.

after all they are mans best friend meaning a dog lol :(
