I used to go there regularly for Sunday lunch after a full-on night out around 89/90
I cannot even smell JD and coke without feeling sick as that is what I used to get very drunk and vomit with when I was a teenager. Anyway, I know what you mean in re. waking up all chirpy with a hangover, but tell us - how are you feeling now??
percolating it does not boil the coffee. If you then leave the percolator on the heat after it has percolated, it burns the coffee. You have to remove it the second it starts bubbling.

ancient bialetti percolator for me too. I'm planning to upgrade to a stainless steel one like this bialetti. no good for espresso as you need a machine for a proper one but good for my morning coffee with warm milk. don't like cappucino, all froth.
