Set menu lunch | Bank, Brindleyplace

Posted on May 1, 2019September 26, 2019 by Laura

Living a few minutes walk from it, my main gripe with Brindleyplace remains its reliance on chain restaurants to please the masses. Of course there’s a few independents and small chains knocking about, but largely the busy square houses chains churning out boring, mediocre meals – usually with a permanent discount voucher attached to it….

Feel good fine dining | Folium, St Paul’s Square

Posted on March 25, 2019May 17, 2019 by Laura

Behind the almost opaque white drapes that separate the beating heart of Folium from the streets of the Jewellery Quarter, something rather beautiful is happening. Food critics from national newspapers have raved about it, locals love it, and as of late 2018 the big boys at Michelin have recommended it. One could say that Folium…

Italian suppers | Legna, Fleet Street

Posted on March 16, 2019March 21, 2019 by Laura

There are few restaurants in Birmingham as beautiful as the two opened by Aktar Islam on Summer Row. With its glowing bar and unique natural aesthetic, Legna especially – to me at least – is stunning. Having initially stepped through the doors back in December, my return visit to this Italian restaurant In February was…

Relaxed fine dining | Harborne Kitchen, Harborne High Street

Posted on March 5, 2019April 24, 2019 by Laura

Elegant, vibrant food in an unpretentious and relaxed setting – what a joy Harborne Kitchen is. I’ve started this post numerous times now, and still don’t really feeling like I’m doing this place justice. Suffice to say, a few weeks ago I possibly had the best lunch I’ve ever had; a meal packed with colour,…

Midweek supper | Opus, Cornwall Street

Posted on February 20, 2019February 24, 2019 by Laura

Way back at the start of January (which seems about 9503 years ago) I popped a post up about some of the local independent restaurant deals that could be found in Brum during the most financially naff month of the year. One of those deals was at Opus, Cornwall Street. The last time I visited this place…

Sandwiches and light bites | Gas Street Social, Mailbox

Posted on December 29, 2018February 14, 2019 by Laura

Over Christmas my husband and I ventured out of the flat in search of anything that wasn’t turkey or cheese. Yes – even I can only put away so much Camembert, it turns out. Living by the canal means we often take the walk from Brindleyplace down to Mailbox, during which we walk past a…

Speedy spicy salmon and three grain rice

Posted on December 19, 2018March 27, 2019 by Laura

Today I have the most easy to follow recipe for you, I’m not sure I can even justify it as a real recipe. But when I put this meal up on my Instagram a few of you seemed to think it looked good enough to make yourself, so below you’ll find the minimal ingredients required….

Fresh English flavours @ Aria, Hyatt Regency Hotel

Posted on September 24, 2018November 11, 2018 by Laura

The last time I visited the Hyatt Regency Hotel on Broad Street it was a birthday. My husband had organised the stop over for me, and I remember the great views from our room at the top of the hotel. I also remember falling off my high heels as I exited the lift but that’s…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham #4

Posted on September 2, 2018September 4, 2018 by Laura

If you follow me on Instagram you’ll know I spent last weekend in Manchester celebrating Pride. If you don’t follow me on Instagram you’re one of the lucky ones.. believe me. While I had a lovely time (I’m fat, exhausted and still finding glitter everywhere) I struggled to get back into the whole cooking for…

A weekend of rest & relaxation @ Hatherley Manor Hotel and Spa, Gloucester

Posted on August 22, 2018November 11, 2018 by Laura

Last weekend I spent a glorious 24 hours at Hatherley Manor Hotel and Spa in the Gloucestershire countryside. My lovely mum, Deborah – who enjoys a spa break and glass of plonk almost as much as me – kindly booked the overnight break for us as a belated birthday present. Having just moved house I…

Seafood and summer menu changes @ Bistro du Vin, Church Street

Posted on August 2, 2018August 2, 2018 by Laura

Recently I joined a group of food bloggers at Bistro du Vin on Church Street to meet the new GM and test run the summer menu. Moving over from Malmaison, the boutique hotel’s new manager is Tom Gallimore. He’s tall and likes to drink wine, so I instantly warmed to him. His invitation to dine…

Simple springtime dining @ The Pickled Piglet, Gas Street

Posted on June 13, 2018June 13, 2018 by Laura

I recently found myself moseying along the canals in between meetings, hungry and with an hour to kill. Jumping off the towpath around Gas Street, I spotted the familiar white washed walls of The Pickled Piglet. It’s somewhere I’ve trundled past many times with good intentions of visiting, but until one recent overcast afternoon I’d…

Tapas and small plates @ Rico Libre, Digbeth

Posted on May 31, 2018May 31, 2018 by Laura

Recently I spent an evening at Rico Libre in Digbeth with some good friends. We laughed and gossiped, ate far too much and polished off a decent amount of wine for four women who all had work the next day. The coming together of friends over food is one of the reasons I enjoy tapas…

A brilliant birthday lunch @ El Borracho de Oro, Edgbaston

Posted on May 14, 2018May 21, 2018 by Laura

Before flying off to Rome for my birthday (sorry not sorry) I had a gorgeous lunch at El Borracho de Oro with some friends and family. The Edgbaston restaurant is somewhere I’ve enjoyed tapas before, and more recently I scoffed a lot of owner Emma’s grub at 1000 Trades, where she had a successful pop…

Wonder Woman 1984 is two and half hours long and so far the only things I’ve really enjoyed about it are Kristen Wiig’s studded leather jacket and the fact that Adam Klaus from Jonathan Creek has a bit part. The plot is moronic, the script is crap, and it’s dull. Total garbage.

Imagine assuming you can buy a woman’s Instagram account simply because you’re a man and you want it for yourself. Astounding.

Weather report: sunny but absolutely pissing freezing. Floor is a death trap. Wish I hadn’t bothered. But look how pretty she is.
