Bohns Best Burgers, Nottingham City Centre

We’re going all the way from Indonesia to the land of Stars and Stripes as we say goodbye to Nada Budaya and hello to Bohns Best Burgers underneath Brewdog, in Hockley. If you thought the name of this bbq burger joint is pronounced like ‘bones’ then you would be very silly indeed, Bohns actually rhymes… Continue reading Bohns Best Burgers, Nottingham City Centre

Chao Chao, West Bridgford

Asian street food has become increasingly popular recently, with a few local places popping up. We love it, so were more than excited to receive an invite to visit fairly new Chao Chao in West Bridgford to try some of their southeast Asian inspired dishes. Chao Chao seems primarily a take-away and delivery place but there… Continue reading Chao Chao, West Bridgford

Mowgli Indian Street Food, Nottingham City Centre

First of all, the amount of hilarious Jungle Book puns that easily present themselves in this review are often irresistible. For this, we apologise in advance. For a fairly new brand, Mowgli has grown really quickly with locations in Birmingham, Liverpool, Oxford and Manchester. The concept is small plates of Indian street food and authentic… Continue reading Mowgli Indian Street Food, Nottingham City Centre

Westy-B isn’t a place we venture into very often as we live on the other side of town, but there are a list of gems to find, our favourites being La Storia for authentic, family-run Italian or Escabeche for a tasty take on tapas.

Lanzhou beef noodles, Nottingham City Centre

Buckle up kids, it’s hidden gem time! Lanzhou noodles just popped up on market street one day, unassuming and with no fanfare. But it caught our eye and we were curious, especially after seeing an old Chinese gentleman hand pulling noodles in the window. This had the promise of super (souper) authentic Chinese noodles and… Continue reading Lanzhou beef noodles, Nottingham City Centre

Jamie’s Italian, Nottingham City Centre

Despite living in Nottingham for many years, we had never visited Jamie’s Italian until now. We hadn’t heard great things, but Sexy Mamma in Hockley isn’t living up to it’s initial levels of ‘wowzer’ of late, and we had an O2 Priority voucher code for a second main course for a quid. We decided to… Continue reading Jamie’s Italian, Nottingham City Centre

Kar-O-Bar, Nottingham City Centre

Following recent visits to Bundobust in Manchester and Leeds, Indian street food is a current favourite of ours. So, when we saw that a new Hockley restaurant had opened on Goose Gate serving just that, it shot to the top of our Must-try List. Kar-O-Bar is situated where Boozy Bones used to be and Jim’s… Continue reading Kar-O-Bar, Nottingham City Centre

Sushimania, Chapel Bar Nottingham City Centre

We entered Sushimania with the sole intention of putting them out of business. The all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant recently opened on Chapel Bar and has been on our hit list ever since – we both like sushi and reckon we can eat a lot of it. Unlike some all you can eat restaurants, this sushi is… Continue reading Sushimania, Chapel Bar Nottingham City Centre
