A week of food and drink in Birmingham #17

Posted on September 29, 2019September 29, 2019 by Laura

I’ve been a bit quiet (for me anyway) on the old blogging front of late. I doubt anyone has really noticed (aside from the one rude gammon on Twitter who seems to think I’m his on-call food and drink encyclopaedia), but in truth I’ve had a bit going on in my personal life, and for…

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…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham #11

Posted on February 14, 2019February 25, 2019 by Laura

I keep thinking I’m having a really boring, quiet month considering I was out more than the cat in January, but actually I’ve been having a jolly lovely time. With it being a bit warmer (I sound like my mum) I’ve been taking my laptop out to work remotely a fair bit, as well as…

A first glimpse of Legna, Fleet Street

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. Replacing Mi Amore, the opening of this new Italian fine dining restaurant and bar has been hotly anticipated, especially considering the success of Aktar’s first venue, Opheem, just yards away. As you can see from the photos below,…

Cosy Italian suppers | Pasta Di Piazza, St Paul’s Square

Posted on November 5, 2018January 28, 2019 by Laura

Let’s be honest, Birmingham isn’t really synonymous with authentic Italian food. Having said that, I recently enjoyed a cosy supper at Pasta Di Piazza that warmed my cynical heart. I’ve had a fairly mixed experience with Italian food in central Birmingham, it must be said. While I’m a big fan of Laghi’s Deli, I’ve had…

Pasta and pizza @ Mi Amore, Fleet Street

Posted on June 20, 2018June 20, 2018 by Laura

We don’t have a lot of Italian restaurants in Birmingham city centre. Actually, that’s not true – we have an abundance of them. What we don’t have is many good Italian restaurants. I’ve lived in and around the city centre for over 12 years now, and it’s only in the last year or so I’ve…

Pasta, pizza and Italian comfort food @ Laghi’s Deli, Five Ways

Posted on April 22, 2018April 22, 2018 by Laura

There is something rather wonderful happening at Laghi’s Deli, a family run restaurant that popped up opposite Park Regis Hotel last year. Despite being situated about one red wine stumble away from Five Ways roundabout, Laghi’s Deli is a pretty addition to Brum’s food scene that has been quietly making a name for itself over the…

Italian dining @ Cucina Rustica

Posted on November 7, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura

I recently visited Cucina Rustica in the St Paul’s area of Birmingham Leafy and picturesque, St Paul’s Square is slowly but surely becoming one of my favourite spots in the city. Nestled below the bustling streets of the Jewellery Quarter, this small but vibrant part of Birmingham becomes a hive of activity come the weekend;…

Simple Italian dining @ Del Villaggio

Posted on September 26, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura

Recently we took a trip to Del Villaggio on Broad Street. I’ve never been the biggest fan of Broad Street, and until my boyfriend and I became Unlimited members of Cineworld (at the Five Ways end of the street) a few years ago I’d not spent much time in that area of the city. In…

Birthday bites and all the cheese @ Fumo Birmingham

Posted on June 16, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

I’ve heard a lot of people rave about Fumo Birmingham 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. Fumo…

A working lunch @ Bella Italia New Street

Posted on May 28, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

Bella Italia New Street In the middle of the week I found myself in town running a few errands before a meeting; having just 45 minutes spare we decided on Bella Italia New Street. This is part of the wider chain of Italian inspired restaurants and is somewhere I used to eat in a lot…

A slice of joy @ Izza Pizza

Posted on May 16, 2017 by Laura Casewell

It’s fair to say my birthday weekend  *I turned 32 – sob* was raucous. It’s also fair to say I’ve probably eaten far too much this past week (my jeans no longer do up) and am now largely made of cheese and gin. You’d think that would mean a few days of reining it in,…

Italian food @ Milano Arcadian

Posted on May 11, 2017February 9, 2018 by Laura Casewell

Italian dining at Milano Arcadian This week I visited Milano Arcadian. This week is a busy one for my family as we celebrate not one but two birthdays right next to each other. With my dad celebrating his 68th birthday (on Wednesday, the day before mine) my step mum and I decided to surprise my…

Spring menu @ Gusto Birmingham

Posted on April 26, 2017February 13, 2018 by Laura Casewell

Gusto Birmingham Having been invited to attend the intimate blogger evening to try out the latest seasonal additions to the menu, I was excited to return to Gusto Birmingham; a restaurant I’d enjoyed several times when it first opened back in September 2016. Found on Colmore Row – where new bars and restaurants currently seem…

Having spent my entire Sunday morning cleaning I needed some fresh air to cancel out the bleach fumes radiating through my flat 😭
