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 #12

Posted on February 24, 2019May 21, 2019 by Laura

I had this vision that I was going to look absolutely banging in my bikini by the time my March getaway with friends came around. I’d frolic by the pool of our all inclusive somewhere in the Canary Islands, looking toned and fabulous, probably attached to a vodka drip and a bag of jambon Ruffles….

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 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 –…

Rustic dishes with style | Purnell’s Bistro, Newhall Street

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

I vividly remember the day I booked a table at Purnell’s Bistro. It was the same day grown adults yelled at each other across the internet over a vegan sausage roll. Thankfully, by the time our dinner at this city centre bistro came around the gammons on Twitter had gone back to arguing about gender…

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,…

Independent restaurants & pubs with midweek offers to make your December cheaper

Posted on December 6, 2018December 13, 2018 by Laura

Here’s the festive dilemma: you want to eat lovely things but you don’t want to spend a fortune. You and me both. With Christmas almost here you may be laying off the nice lunches and evenings in the pub to ensure you’re not left selling a kidney come 2019. But what if I told you…

Feel good food | The Butcher’s Social, Henley-in-Arden

Posted on November 30, 2018February 17, 2019 by Laura

Last Saturday I realised two things: 1) I absolutely loathe the German Market in Birmingham, and 2) Henley-in-Arden is much more fun than I thought. While the town has an obvious aesthetic charm, my visits here have always been brief and in a solely professional capacity. I’d visited fleetingly during the day when the town…

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…

Cheese and wine dinner @ Opus, Cornwall Street

Posted on September 20, 2018November 11, 2018 by Laura

When I found out Opus was hosting a 5 course cheese and wine dinner I booked a ticket. I didn’t care that it was to cost me £75 nor that it would give me weird cheese dreams, I just wanted a seat at the table. I love cheese; anyone who knows me will testify that…

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…

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…

A weekend of fun and food in Rome, Italy

Posted on June 10, 2018August 17, 2018 by Laura

There are some experiences that stay with you for a lifetime. Getting married in Las Vegas was certainly pretty epic, but I can now add a weekend of fun and food in Rome to this list. Rome has been on my ‘travelling to-do list’ for a very long time. For various reasons it’s taken me…

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

Fun fact: Every time you make a carbonara with cream an Italian nonna falls down the stairs
