Personally, I think that the greatest discovery we have made while blogging is The Black Bull. Prior to being invited there to sample their Sunday Lunch a few months ago, we hadn’t heard of it and with it being so far out of the city centre we were unlikely to stumble across it. We found the… Continue reading The Black Bull, Blidworth
After a fairly disastrous visit to Carluccio’s last month, we left them a fairly scathing review. We were contacted by the manager to apologise and invite us back and sample their new winter menu, as their guests. However unimpressed we were on our last visit, we felt willing to give them another chance and were… Continue reading Carluccio’s, Nottingham Low Pavement
The Cartwheel Cafe is located on Lower Pavement, cheekily positioned right next to the popular Thea Caffea. Not to be intimidated by the competition, Cartwheel are forging their own reputation for unique coffee as well as a food menu that serves brunch and sandwiches. We visited late one Saturday morning and needed some brunch to line our… Continue reading The Cartwheel Cafe, Nottingham

Funnily enough, we’ve never really fancied eating there/noticed it before but, in the midst of a Friday night drinking session with the third wheel (Ken) in tow, it… Continue reading Toast bar at the National Video Game Arcade, Nottingham

Obviously, way back then fish was a relatively new invention and the flavours blew my little mind, and I’m sure I have… Continue reading The Cod’s Scallops, Sherwood Nottingham
So, you remember when we reviewed Carluccio’s and declared all Italian chain restaurants to be rubbish? Well, on a recent day trip to Sheffield our first choice of eatery wasn’t available (okay, we couldn’t find it) so we decided to wind our necks in and go to Piccolino’s. We have had the Sunday roast platter… Continue reading Piccolino’s, Sheffield
