  • I realise that Cook 'n' With Gas doesn't have a kids menu but are they welcome along anyway? My wifes voucher runs out soon and unfortunately we haven't got any nights off together before then to enjoy a kid free night out just the two of us. So we thought one of us could just take the kids along, they're usually just happy with chips anyway! Only thing now is - who is going to be the lucky one that gets to go?!
