Show Me The Dough – Mindoro (Norwich)

I’m terrible with street names, tell me it’s near that Starbucks on the corner, or just past the book shop. It’s opposite the market or where the good chippy is. I was looking for somewhere interesting to have a birthday catch up with friends (I know I’ve had that surprise tea party, but that was… Continue reading Show Me The Dough – Mindoro (Norwich)

Courgette Cakes and Steampunk Coffee – Alchemista Norwich

I’d seen work being done on a building on St Gregory’s Alley a few months back while I was eating chips from Grosvenor Fish Bar. Actually it must have been quite a few months ago, as on this occasion I believe I was eating outdoors, which never happens as much as I’d like due to… Continue reading Courgette Cakes and Steampunk Coffee – Alchemista Norwich

Christmas Balls

I missed it last year and I was determined not to let it pass me by this time. I mean it looked amazing and bizarre at the same time. I was intrigued and disgusted, curious and apprehensive. I’ve waited a whole year for it to return, just so I can say I had it, I… Continue reading Christmas Balls

I am quite fussy though in the way that it is cooked, runny yolk, not greasy, quality sausage, crispy bacon. So to please me it must be great! I had this… Continue reading Best Brunch in Town – House Cafe Norwich

I'd been hearing about Rooftop Gardens for a while. There was a new restaurant open in town (Norwich) and rumour was it was on a roof, in England,… Continue reading The High Life – Rooftop Gardens

Please Stand Up – Bella Italia

I don't think I've written a negative blog post review so far, and this day wasn't all bad. I enjoyed time spent with great friends and we had a laugh. I used to be a regular diner at Bella Italia Norwich Red Lion Street until a couple of Christmases ago and an awful works do.… Continue reading Please Stand Up – Bella Italia

Jungle Life – Urban Jungle

Some of best discoveries can be found in the city you thought you knew.   After seeing photos on my Facebook news feed of friends eating cake and drinking tea amongst exotic plants and trees I was becoming envious, I figured they must be on holiday in some tropical paradise. But oh no, after closer… Continue reading Jungle Life – Urban Jungle
