Positioned at Unit 8C, Clifton Down Shopping Centre, Whiteladies Rd, Clifton but accessible only from the outside, this bright and vibrant eatery stands out especially on a Sunday evening when many of the Shopping Centre shops are shuttered but nearby restaurants […]

We booked The Ivy in Exeter to celebrate a birthday, opting for a relaxed lunchtime visit rather than a full evening affair. Although we didn’t flag the birthday when making the reservation, The Ivy Collection is well known for its thoughtful celebratory touches, and during our visit we noticed two or three nearby tables receiving […]

We went to Fisk & Frite in St Werburghs, Bristol, drawn in by their excellent reviews and a tempting £10 lunch deal spotted on Instagram. Sometimes lunch deals are a compromise. This one absolutely isn’t.

Hot pot usually brings to mind bubbling communal pots, raw ingredients laid out on trays, and a table full of people cooking together. Pot Pot Malatang in Bristol takes a different approach, one that suits modern diners, solo eaters, and anyone who prefers a more streamlined, personal experience without sacrificing flavour or choice.

We visited Fluffy Fluffy in Bristol entirely by chance. Walking past on a winter weekday, one sign stopped us in our tracks: “Birthday Offer – Free Pancake with Any Drink.”

After a long afternoon meeting in London where lunch was completely skipped, and while my other half was happily exploring the Sir John Soane’s Museum, we decided to meet for an early dinner before heading home. At around 3.40pm, firmly between lunch and dinner service, we found ourselves outside Cafe East Pho on Bloomsbury Way […]

It was around six months ago that we last visited Hyderabad House on Bath Road in Hounslow. After a long, cold January weekday spent in London, we decided to swing by the same stretch again on our way home, this time to try Biryani Hub, located right next door.

This was our second visit to Wara Thai, though technically our first time wasn’t here at their Melksham restaurant. Our introduction to Wara was in Chippenham, where we ordered some of the more “classic” Thai restaurant favourites; pad thai, massaman curry, that sort of thing. There it was called Wara Thai Cafe, while this is […]
