Vibrant summer pub grub @ The Distillery, Sheepcote Street

Posted on June 6, 2018June 6, 2018 by Laura Casewell

The Distillery is an awesome lunch spot on the canal. Hardly anyone seems to know about it either, which, on a selfish level, makes my inner only child quite happy. My love for The Distillery started when we found it one sunny afternoon, after moaning about where I live. I don’t really like residing in…

Lunch bargains @ Wildwood 

Posted on February 13, 2018March 28, 2018 by Laura Casewell

I was quite delighted when I discovered the Wildwood £10 lunch offer, I can’t deny it. Wildwood Birmingham is found on New Street opposite Byron. I saw a promo board outside with an offfer for a lunch bargain; two courses plus a drink for a tenner. Venue Wildwood itself is a beautiful restaurant that feels modern, clean…

An African themed restaurant, Nakira Bar and Grill, is due to open in August in the centre of Birmingham.

The Gin Lab @ Jekyll and Hyde

Posted on July 24, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

With Birmingham Cocktail Weekend** on the horizon, an invitation popped up in my inbox recently that got me rather excited: did I want to come to an event at Jekyl and Hyde to meet the Edinburgh Gin team and create my own gin? Errr, damn right I did! As anyone who follows my ramblings will…

Vietnamese street food @ Pho Birmingham

Posted on July 22, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

I’ve written before about my love affair with Pho Birmingham – check it out – located in the food court area of Grand Central. Once you get over the fact that there’s always a queue (and in winter it’s ruddy freezing) it’s a great spot for a steaming bowl of noodle soup or one of the other Vietnamese inspired…

Trust Your Senses cocktail tasting @ The Botanist Birmingham

Posted on July 19, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

One unseasonably wet Tuesday not so long ago I made my way to The Botanist Birmingham for an illusive event simply called #TrustYourSenses. Having had one of those days (it started with me throwing a chocolate protein shake down my top en route to a meeting; excellent adulting) I was hoping to try some of…

Whisky in the sky @ the Haig Club Bar launch

Posted on July 15, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

A few weeks ago I was delighted to see an invitation pop up in my inbox to check out the latest swish bar to open up in Brum hotspot The Cube, Haig Club Bar. Elevated some 25 floors above the ground, this exclusive whisky bar promised bad-ass views of the city and some seriously strong drinks…..

Thai food and cocktails @ Siamais Brindleyplace

Posted on July 13, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

Siamais Brindleyplace is a lovely spot for dinner. Despite being an almost married woman now, let it be known I went on my fair share of dates when I was a Single Sally. Oh yes! I was quite the expert as it goes and even wrote a weekly blog about my experiences trying to find…

Free ‘Independence Day’ burgers @ Buffalo and Rye

Posted on July 9, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

When I think of Independence Day I find it hard to picture anything other than a baby-faced Will Smith kicking seven bells of shite out of an unconscious alien, but thankfully on Tuesday last week my thoughts were turned to food courtesy of Buffalo and Rye. Announcing across the social media channels it would be…

A Turkish feast for two @ Cappadocia Jewellery Quarter

Posted on July 6, 2017April 6, 2018 by Laura Casewell

Did you know Cappadocia Jewellery Quarter is a semi-arid region of Turkey known for its Bronze Age homes carved into valley walls and caves by troglodytes? No? Well, me neither to be fair, but it’s always nice to learn something new. Luckily the Brum restaurant of the same name isn’t found in a dusty cave…

A fun cinema experience but disappointing food @ Mockingbird Cinema

Posted on July 2, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

I’ve written and deleted the opening of this blog post so many times now, but I’ve decided to just post a blow-by-blow account of my recent visit to Mockingbird Cinema & Kitchen. I have to be honest from the get go and say this may be a long (and painful) read and is a blog…

Visiting Auschwitz remains one of the most important and devastating days of my life. The cruelty; the abuse; the intricately planned and executed devastation. All those human beings who deserved so much better. Recommend following @AuschwitzMuseum. #HolocaustMemorialDay
