All you can eat pizza @ Rub Smokehouse
My wedding diet has gone completely to pot in the last few weeks, it has to be said. With a busy month of foodie events coming to a close I thought I was back on track last week, but then I ended up at Rub Smokehouse - at an all you can eat pizza event. … Continue reading All you can eat pizza @ Rub Smokehouse

Trust Your Senses cocktail tasting @ The Botanist
One unseasonably wet Tuesday not so long ago I made my way to The Botanist 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 the … Continue reading Trust Your Senses cocktail tasting @ The Botanist
Free ‘Independence Day’ burgers @ Buffalo & Rye
"I could've been at a barbecue!" 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 & Rye. Announcing across the social … Continue reading Free ‘Independence Day’ burgers @ Buffalo & Rye
Vegan lunching @ Natural Healthy Foods
Did you see that? That was sunshine - lots of it. I know, I'd forgotten it was almost summer too, but last week saw a nice dose of those beautiful rays beating down on this fab city named Brum. Like most people, I got totally over excited by the sunshine and threw myself head first … Continue reading Vegan lunching @ Natural Healthy Foods
Birthday bites and all the cheese @ Fumo
I've heard a lot of people rave about Fumo over the years but until recently was yet to visit it personally. Part of the San Carlo group, the swish Italian inspired restaurant and cocktail bar is situated on Waterloo Street and is, from what I can gather, always super busy at the weekend. With one … Continue reading Birthday bites and all the cheese @ Fumo
A fizzy afternoon tea @ AC Hotel Birmingham, Mailbox
There's something quite special about afternoon tea, in my opinion. I'm a big fan of getting together with friends or family to share food and enjoy a more intimate dining experience. I know it's a little bit fussy and old fashioned to some, but I enjoy the cuteness of it all. I especially enjoy a … Continue reading A fizzy afternoon tea @ AC Hotel Birmingham, Mailbox
French toast & happy vibes @ Home Is Where
I found Home Is Where by accident when I was recently visiting Hotel Du Vin. After my massage last week I clocked the cafe in all its white vintagy glory as I left, and decided to diary a visit to the cute looking eatery. I managed to find an hour spare recently so popped in … Continue reading French toast & happy vibes @ Home Is Where
Discovering the Edwardian Tearooms @ Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery
Like most Brummies I'm guilty of often overlooking some of the best parts of our city, especially some of the touristy locations. Whenever I bring anyone new to our fair city they usual ask to see the Museum & Art Gallery - mainly because it's bloody enormous and it has actual real-life mummies. There's not … Continue reading Discovering the Edwardian Tearooms @ Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery
