I embarked on reading the Restaurant having remembered it as being the week point of the series for me. I was pleasantly surprised to find that my memory had let me down, and that I quite enjoyed the whole thing. As with the first book the radio drama superimposed itself over my reading, and I found myself doing a Louis Armstrong rendition whilst sweeping up.

The Total Perspective Vortex was fun to read about, though the actual Restaurant itself palled a little which is why I remember it being a bit of a flat read. I quite liked the humour this time around though, so I'll be reading the remainder of the series again in due course.
