Review | Rev de Cuba, Temple Street

Posted on January 24, 2020January 25, 2020 by Laura

I like to give places second chances, which is a good job really as my first dining experience at Rev de Cuba was pretty underwhelming. I don’t mind the place for late night drinks and dancing (I’ve attended some very fun parties in the upstairs bar that have left me with stories I couldn’t ever…

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…

Tapas favourite Rico Libre moves to Kanteen in Digbeth

Review | Craeft, Gas Street

Posted on September 4, 2019February 5, 2020 by Laura

Craeft and Craft are not the same place. I’m not a moron so I’d already figured this out, but, according to the friendly chap I spent a few hours chatting to in the former, not everyone has got the memo yet. While Craft is offering a take on fine dining within the ICC, Craeft is…

10 places to eat alone in Birmingham (without feeling like a loner)

Posted on May 14, 2019August 28, 2019 by Laura

A few weeks ago I mentioned on Twitter that I’d spent an afternoon eating and drinking around the city centre on my own. Yes, shock/horror people do that now. I happen to do it quite a bit, and in some ways I prefer it. Quite a few people asked me for recommendations for where to…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham #13

Posted on March 9, 2019March 27, 2019 by Laura

I’ve been a bit quieter over the last two weeks, so this is more of a fortnight in food and drink. In this roundup you’ll find cafes, Thai street food and wine tastings. Don’t say I never give you food *scoff* for thought (..anyone? No? Ah man..) Migas Tapas & Wine Bar, Sutton Coldfield I’ve…

Independent bars, restaurants and events enjoyed over Christmas break in Birmingham

Posted on January 1, 2019January 8, 2019 by Laura

As well as eating my own body weight in cheese and turkey over the festive break in Birmingham, I’ve also visited lots of local places for drinks and food. Instead of a weekly roundup I’m starting 2019 with a quick post about the independent highlights between Christmas and New Year. Laghi’s Deli (Five Ways) My…

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…

Estrella Galicia beer & tapas pairing @ El Borracho de Oro, Edgbaston

Posted on September 13, 2018September 19, 2018 by Laura

When a pal told me about the Estrella Galicia beer and tapas pairing event at El Borracho de Oro I wanted in. Beer and multiple plates of food: oh just take my money. The perfect pre-weekend livener event, I was greeted with a welcome drink before three tapas dishes and matched beers and ciders were…

Weekend tapas @ El Borracho de Oro, Edgbaston

Posted on July 1, 2018July 3, 2018 by Laura

Don’t tell owner Emma, but I’ve secretly moved in to El Borracho de Oro. The floor isn’t that comfortable but the food is worth the bad back. I seem to spend more time at the Edgbaston restaurant than my own home, but it’s hard to stay away from a place oozing charm and knocking out…

Where to watch the England games during the World Cup

Posted on June 17, 2018June 18, 2018 by Laura

It’s that time again, when we all rediscover our patriotism for a few weeks and start singing Three Lions with more enthusiasm than Russia’s department of poisoning. Yes, the World Cup 2018 is upon us, with the first England match kicking off tomorrow. I don’t claim to be any kind of a football expert, but…

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…

A brilliant birthday lunch @ El Borracho de Oro, Edgbaston

Posted on May 14, 2018May 21, 2018 by Laura

Before flying off to Rome for my birthday (sorry not sorry) I had a gorgeous lunch at El Borracho de Oro with some friends and family. The Edgbaston restaurant is somewhere I’ve enjoyed tapas before, and more recently I scoffed a lot of owner Emma’s grub at 1000 Trades, where she had a successful pop…

Mediterranean feasting @ Don Diego, Edgbaston

Posted on May 4, 2018June 12, 2018 by Laura

The Husband and I recently visited Don Diego in Edgbaston for the first time, for a double date with fellow food lover George and her fiancé, Dave. I had actually been meaning to try the food at Don Diego for a while, having seen some lovely looking dishes flying around on social media. I can…

How lovely, on International Women’s Day no less, to see some dismissing a fellow woman’s admission of suicidal thoughts as nonsense. It doesn’t matter if you care or ‘believe her’ - it matters how you engage in these conversations. Because your friends, family and peers see you.

It’s odd how this interview was framed in print and online this morning as them shitting on the queen, when in actual fact they both do nothing but praise her. Charles on the other hand... #OprahMeghanHarry

What she said 👍🏼

Felicity Cross@fliccross

I’m all for opinions. But in v v simple terms -I don’t listen to a white person on racism, a man on women’s issues, or a non-suicidal person about feeling suicidal. How about we listen to experts in those fields, instead of soapboxers who pontificate on issues outside their lane?

Well deserved! And love this from Nat’s local paper. Supporting and championing local people and businesses is what a local paper should be doing 👏🏼

Can’t quite believe I am included in this - there are so many inspiring ladies that are doing incredible work across Bristol, as well as those not listed. Here’s to them today 💖 #IWD2021 #InternationalWomensDay

Wow it’s already a total bin fire here, isn’t it. Taking the rest of today off this site because everyone’s apparently gone mental, and all this flag waving shit and wishing death on a pregnant woman (on IWD too, how nice) isn’t for me.
