Posted on December 8, 2018December 10, 2018 by Laura

Brief post today on Legna – the second restaurant in Birmingham to be opened by Aktar Islam.

River Fest 2018, Stratford-Upon-Avon

Posted on July 13, 2018July 23, 2018 by Laura

Quick post for you today on a recent festival I went to in Stratford-Upon-Avon. Yes, occasionally I leave Birmingham and spend my money in other places. Who knew?! After what can politely be described as a turbulent week, The Husband and I decided to spend last weekend doing nothing and being T-Total. This lasted approximately…

Bread and sweet treats @ Medicine Bakery, New Street

Posted on May 2, 2018May 16, 2018 by Laura

I remember the first time I stumbled upon Medicine Bakery & Gallery. I use that turn of phrase literally; I tripped up outside the place on my way to the museum. Hidden away on New Street, up a steep flight of stairs, you would be forgiven for walking straight past this cool little offering. Forgiven…

Classic grilled cheese and ham sandwich

Posted on March 23, 2018April 9, 2019 by Laura

Sometimes the simple things are the best things to eat. My simple things I love most are cheese and bread. It’s not elegant, sexy or cutting edge, but a decent grilled cheese sandwich can make your lunch break. This (very) short post is my take on a classic grilled cheese, using sourdough bread. Like a…

Learn to game dining experience @ Grosvenor Casino 

Posted on November 20, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura

As someone who chose to get married in Las Vegas, I am no stranger to casinos. After a few g&ts I become quite the Blackjack fiend and enjoy a flutter, but I couldn’t claim to be an expert. With that in mind, I was buzzing to visit the Grosvenor Casino on Broad Street recently for…

A Middle Eastern feast @ Damascena, Temple Row

Posted on September 20, 2017April 6, 2018 by Laura

If you ask any foodie in Birmingham where to go for epic Middle Eastern grub, the chances are the name Damascena might crop up. And when I say might I mean absolutely will. Having very much enjoyed my visit to the flagship cafe in Moseley Village earlier this year, I had high expectations of Damascena’s…
