What else can I say?

I think the Romeo and Juliet analogy schematises Chappell’s interpretation of book IV quite succinctly though.

Berkeley was wrong when he presented Locke as taking the view that abstract ideas are composed of inconsistent parts.

Hope that your revision involves more rigourous thinking?

That’s not to say I think much of its competition; Prezzo, Ask, Bella Italia et al. are much worse. I never mention them because I assume people know they are awful. People turn a blind eye to the shortcomings of Carluccios for one reason or another. I assume it is the nouveau-italia ’60s chic décor, brand and image. If you need any more evidence, look at the fact that they put a Piaggio Vespa as an item to order on their menu for £1800 or so. What a contrived try hard gimmick.

As for what the populace at large think, I believe the Hare and Tortoise approval ratings are a lot higher than those of Carluccio’s on urbanspoon etc..

It fulfils my criteria for student dining precisely however. The food for the money is 5/5 – without qualification.

Don’t get me wrong its no Hakkasan but it would be ridiculous to compare them side by side.
