Although from the outside it doesn’t look incredibly appetising, Roosters has always been a great place for a quick, tasty lunch. I can’t blame you for walking past the restaurant and disregarding it due to its clinical look, but I always hold it up as a favourite, especially in a conversation that includes the word ‘Nando’s’… Continue reading Roosters Piri Piri, Nottingham
It has felt like summer has finally arrived in Notts (ok, ok, apart from the odd shower) and with the changing seasons, good restaurants will update their menus to bring you the best produce for that time of year. So, it’s out with the cottage pies and in with the lighter, fresher dishes that are… Continue reading Merchant’s new summer menu 2016
Iberico World Tapas is renowned in Nottingham (as well as in Derby) for being at the top of the tapas game and being particularly well suited to a special occasion. The vibe is ‘tapas-but-not-as-you-know-it’ as we see traditional Catalan tapas such as Iberico ham and patatas bravas balanced with more exotic dishes influenced by Asian… Continue reading Iberico World Tapas Nottingham
We were invited to try the new menu at the exotic gem Thaikhun, situated in Intu Victoria Centre’s Clocktower Dining. The area has been successfully revamped with tempting eateries such as Coast to Coast, Handmade Burger Kitchen, Ed’s Easy Diner, Tortilla and more – there is something for everyone. Let’s be honest, as the two Thai… Continue reading Thaikhun Nottingham
I was in two minds whether to write this post because I feel like Chocolate Utopia is a true Nottingham secret and I want to keep it all to myself. I still don’t know how this place doesn’t have mile-long queues outside every day. However, I feel that if you’ve never had a hot chocolate from… Continue reading Chocolate Utopia Nottingham
We spent the best part of Friday night and Saturday checking out some of the great events going on for Nottingham Craft Beer Week. We love a good craft beer so feel really lucky to be in a city with such great breweries, pubs and mad beer scientists. On Friday night the newly-refurbished Bunker’s Hill… Continue reading Nottingham Craft Beer Week #NCBW16
Before seeing Independence Day 2 (don’t judge – it was shameless, cheesy action!) we popped in for a bite to eat at the Le Bistrot Pierre in Nottingham city centre. We have eaten here before (and at the Leicester branch) but not in a long time so we were looking forward it seeing how they… Continue reading Le Bistrot Pierre Nottingham
We visited La Rock in Sandiacre for my birthday as we wanted something extra special to celebrate – we had heard that La Rock would be perfect. It’s a little out of the way as we usually eat in or close to the city centre, but it was worth it! We arrived at 8pm and were seated upstairs in… Continue reading La Rock restaurant, Sandiacre
Stu and I go for lunch almost every Sunday and are on an ever-enthusiastic mission to find Nottingham’s very best Sunday roast. Along the way, we’ve had some corkers and we’ve had some shockers – unfortunately Oaks falls towards the latter end of the spectrum for us. We were seated in the middle of the… Continue reading Oaks Sunday roast
Situated up on Standard Hill in the city centre, Hart’s will do you a great meal – no doubt about it. Although a great place for special occasions due to its reputation for excellent food, Hart’s makes its higher-end fare a little more accessible with a generous set lunch menu (that is available on Saturdays too! Yay!)… Continue reading Hart’s hotel and restaurant Nottingham
