Are there rules on this part of the forum that don't allow us to promote our own businesses?

I won't go any further until someone can confirm what I am allowed to type.

Thanks

Cheers I put info in my profile.

It is not your typical "restaurant".

But hopefully people are open to try new things in London.

As long as you don't breach the rule of posting no.4 which states:-

"Do not post or link for the purposes of advertising or personal gain (including cars for sale) or cross-post across multiple forums. If you wish to advertise please use the classifieds or contact us directly. Please note that we do not allow members to advertise their own car in the forums, nor do we allow members to post asking for valuations on their current car (please use the classifieds as a guide).

You should be OK

The first part bold encompasses all things/items.

The website tells us absolutely nothing about what you're doing or selling :roll eyes:

If you want to say 'serving the best tinned food in the world' then you'd certainly need to elaborate a bit more to get me interested in going.

What are these tins? where do they come from? How are they prepared? Photos?

Actually it is quite interesting as the website tells you all there is to know!

We serve best tinned seafood sourced from all over the world.

Not your usual stuff from the supermarket but red tuna belly, clams, scallops, cold liver etc.

That is it.

Well in your opinion you sell the best tinned seafood in the world. But since you want me to spend my time and my money going there, I'll want to at least qualify your opinion before deciding if I'm going to or not.

imo your website has so little credibility that it would be better off not existing.

Take the images like this one :



And get them hosted on the website!

Sounds good to me, me and another PHer might give it a try next weekend. Sounds refreshingly original.

Sounds perfect for next time I travel down from Edinburgh and can hit the corporate card with some 'London nonsense' for a business dinner smile

Can you tell us more about the tinned thing?

Yes you are right. The website is being updated on Monday with photos of the shop. Etc.

Bit of an odd concept.

I always try and avoid tinned fish as it usually tastes like arse.

A lot of canned fish gets cooked twice, that's why the tuna you get in tins is nothing like the real thing but the gourmet stuff gets canned raw then only gets heated once.
The two are worlds apart.

Exactly this.

The gourmet tins which we sell are completely different to the general stuff you get in supermarkets.

You really need to try it to be converted. But I can totally understand why tinned fish in the UK has this bad reputation.

In Spain and Portugal tinned seafood is completely different.

There is this cod liver from Iceland that tastes unreal. Its texture is like foie gras.
