Chapter opens in Edgbaston Village

Posted on February 1, 2022March 2, 2022 by Laura

Let’s say hello to Brum’s newest independent restaurant: Chapter. The bar and kitchen is right in the heart of Edgbaston Village, offering brunch lunch and dinner. From the lovely team behind (the sadly closed) Opus, you’ll find a pretty neighbourhood spot offering meals in the restaurant or snacks with drinks in the plush bar. If…

Restaurants and pubs in Birmingham for walk ins

Posted on April 24, 2021April 28, 2021 by Laura

By the end of this week – the second week of hospitality being reopen since lockdown – I think I must have been asked which restaurants and pubs in Brum are offering walk ins about 50 times. Every time I check my messages there’s at least 3 people asking this, so in a bid to…

Review | Dishoom Birmingham, City Centre

Posted on July 20, 2020September 4, 2020 by Laura

I feel a bit conflicted that my first real review in months is the newly-open Dishoom rather than an established Brummie favourite, but I’m aware it’ll be one lots of you are interested in. If you’re reading this from the future, 2020 has (thus far) been a bit of a bin fire. I’m not going…

Exploring Edgbaston Village – Loki Wine & The High Field

* Collaboration with Edgbaston Village Earlier this week I teamed up with the guys from Edgbaston Village to show you what’s available at two of the venues in the area. I’m a big fan of this part of the city centre, mainly because it’s home to several of my favourite places to eat. Living just…

Dinner for meat lovers | Fazenda, Church Street

Posted on July 7, 2019August 5, 2019 by Laura

If you enjoy eating like a caveman but want to feel a bit fancy, you probably need to pay Fazenda a visit. Situated next to Gaucho (you can eat other things than beef around Colmore Row, I promise) this Brazilian restaurant aims to give you the full rodizio experience in the heart of the city….

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…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham #10

Posted on January 25, 2019April 4, 2019 by Laura

Most people go on some kind of ‘detox’ after Christmas – I personally hate dry January (and staying in for more than 2 days) so I’ve been quite busy already this month. I ran a poll over on my Instagram a few weeks ago to see whether or not you guys like these roundups –…

Brazilian rodizio bar & grill | Fazenda, Colmore Row

Posted on November 19, 2018January 28, 2019 by Laura

Calling all meat fans: Brazilian bar and grill Fazenda has opened on Colmore Row – and it’s actually pretty good. The fifth restaurant in the UK under this brand to open, this is an all you can eat experience akin to Rodizio Rico at The Cube and the ill-fated Viva Brazil, which opened and closed…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham #6

Despite appearances, I’ve actually been quite boring of late. By my standards anyway. I haven’t done a weekly food roundup for a while (the last one is here) mainly because I’ve not been eating out that much. Between having a cold straight from Satan and being acutely aware I need to save some pennies for…

Overnight retreat | Welcombe Hotel Spa & Golf Club, Stratford-Upon-Avon

Posted on September 30, 2018April 24, 2019 by Laura

If there’s one thing in life I love, it’s a weekend getaway with great friends and good food. With one of my close girlfriends due to bring a ‘mini me’ into the world, it seemed only right to whisk her away for an overnight pampering treat. After researching into West Midlands-based rural retreats that offer…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham (#1)

Last week ended up being super busy, so I thought I’d put together some of my food and drink highlights. I started the week with a quick mooch around the newly opened Baked in Brick, which of course included a spot of lunch. The full pizza menu doesn’t run during the day so I opted…

5 fun ways to spend a Sunday in Birmingham

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…

If you’re over in Harborne during the week you can get your hands on a bargain takeaway lunch for less than a fiver at @thecodsscallops. Pick what small item you want with your chips (battered sausage, fish cake, cheese and onion patties etc) add a sauce (I went for gravy but you can have peas or curry instead) and grab a soft drink from the fridge. A lighter portion so you don’t fall asleep straight after eating and perfect for on the go - nice one 💪🏼
Do you know about the lunch deal at @the_oysterclu Do you know about the lunch deal at @the_oysterclub yet, because you really need to. 

For £24 you can enjoy two courses (start with these mussels in a smoked caviar sauce and thank me later) in one of the most gorgeous restaurants in Brum. 

Sit at the bar, enjoy a glass of fizz, feel smug that you’re getting a blinding deal in the heart of the city at one of our best independents. 

Available Tue-Fri 12-6pm.

Always happy to kick the week off with carbs so le Always happy to kick the week off with carbs so let’s talk about the ‘posh’ hot sandwiches from @1000tradesjq, shall we? 

Good lord, they are well fit. We tried two - this one is the State Side with slow cooked beef, fried gherkins, cheese and pickles, amongst some other gorgeous things. The filling was (unsurprisingly) delicious but that bread. Urgh that bread. So good. Focaccia levels unlocked, right there. 

That’s quite a lot of babble about a sarni but it was banging and I want you all to know about it. Swipe left for a porny close up that could even make a Tory MP blush. 

Have a lush week 🫶🏼
Last night I had one of my favourites meals of 202 Last night I had one of my favourites meals of 2022 so far thanks to @chapterbham in Edgbaston. We love it here. 

The spring a la carte menu offers up some truly lovely dishes, most notably this Cornish lamb, and the scallops with samphire. The most colourful plates of food, served by lovely people in a relaxed surrounding: perfect. 

Also, I’ve always banged on about how good the Bloody Mary is here but there’s a new contender in the margarita - hello gorgeous. 

So lucky to have this within a short walk from my flat. There’s also a great brunch menu and a new terrace has just opened on the front so you can enjoy drinks in the sunshine this summer.

Keen to hear what those of you who have been to Chapter think, let me know below. Have a gorgeous Sunday ❤️
Have you got your paws on @rourkespies yet? They’re so good - handmade, loads of variety and really generously packed little pies. They pop up at various artisan markets but they also have a bricks and mortar venue over in Kings Heath. If you like pies with interesting fillings, this is the trader for you. Have a happy bank holiday 👯‍♀️
My social battery is on 2% and I have nothing left My social battery is on 2% and I have nothing left to give. After a successful (but far too busy week) I’m elated to spend today on my sofa watching crap films and eating tasty things. And naps… so many naps. Have fun if you’re out enjoying the bank holiday Sunday vibes. Here’s a photo of the French dip from @beefontheblock because this is a food page and I like bread. Peace out ✌🏼

PIZZA / A @laghisdeli pizza is a thing of beauty. PIZZA / A @laghisdeli pizza is a thing of beauty. The fact that I can now scoff these on my balcony while soaking up the spring sunshine is an added bonus. This beauty went down particularly well with chilli oil to dip the crusts in, and a glass of chilled wine. Happy days. You can get delivery of pizzas like this and charcuterie boards (ideal for al fresco dining when it’s warm) through Deliveroo now, btw. In the words of Ginnie Lemon… fancy a sliiiiice?

RICE / Hope you’re all having a gorgeous bank ho RICE / Hope you’re all having a gorgeous bank holiday - this sunshine is giving me LIFE, let me tell you. I’ve brought you some new openings recently but I think it’s also important to remember your old trusted indies still exist and to give those you enjoy most some love. So with that in mind, here’s the Indonesian chicken fried rice from @ngopiuk, where the food is both delicious and excellent value. This massive pile of spicy rice topped with a fried egg (and served with prawn crackers) costs just £8. A great value lunch if you’re in the city centre and want a tasty, quick meal. Have a smashing weekend, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do 🥴😂
EGGS / You want to know one of the best brunch dis EGGS / You want to know one of the best brunch dishes in Brum?  The 7 minutes eggs from @caneatcafe in Stirchley. No ifs, no buts. Just perfectly jammy yolks and gochujang mayo slathered toast. Keeps you full all day and for £7.50 it’s also decent value. For the sake of the spirit of having a conversation, let me know you’re 3 top picks for brunch in and around the city below.
BURG / Checked out @herbertsyard for the first tim BURG / Checked out @herbertsyard for the first time at the weekend for a pal’s birthday - what a great place to spend a few hours scoffing. Great mix of street food traders scattered about the outside area and loads of room in doors for beers. Here’s a @thepattyfreaks burger to give you a taster of what you can get there. Hope everyone’s having a great week ✌🏼☀️
BLONDIE / As a rule I couldn’t give a toss about BLONDIE / As a rule I couldn’t give a toss about sugary stuff (puddings are rubbish, don’t @ me) but I’ll always make space in my salt-laden schedule for a blondie from @pausebirmingham. The brilliant @farahchaudry is not only one of the nicest human beings I’ve ever met she’s also a bloody good baker, and the pop up she shares at @verbenakitchen with @roryjmcghie is a must-visit if you’re a fan of a coffee and cake vibe. Great people doing ace things - we love to see it. If you had to pick a cinnabuffin or a brownie which would you go for? Doesn’t matter tbh because you can get both and live a happy life. Enjoy 👍🏼❤️

I’ve got a pile of work to do (boo) but if I can escape later I’m going in search of gravy to sustain me for the Peaky Blinders finale which considering how meh this final season has so far been I haven’t got my hopes up for. 

Anyone got any guesses as to what happens? Mainly I just want someone to bump off that fascist posh bint, tbh, but I’ll settle for some good old fashioned violence. 

Will Arthur actually do *anything* except be off his face?

Was it even worth hiring Stephen Graham? 

Has Tom Hardy left his opera bunker yet? 

Will Michael’s tragic moustache finally lose the will to live? 

Has anyone checked on Billy’s poor testicles? 

So many unanswered questions….

A great way to spend the day in Edgbaston Village, from 10-3 you’ll find lots of stalls packed with local traders selling fabulous food (like all this tasty regionally made cheese from Lightwood Cheese) drink, arts and crafts, jewellery and farmers market-style businesses selling fruit and veg, bakery, butchers’ produce and more. 

Fancy making a day of it? Once you’ve visited the market, enjoy favourites like Chapter, Loki, The High Field, Blue Piano and The Physician for drinks afterwards or shop at Neptune, OKA, BoConcept, KIN and LUX (all of which are dog friendly - I know you lot love to take the pooches).
