So i thought I would get the ball rolling. Tonight we visited Pizza express, Regent street. Far from my first choice of places to eat but for us it served a purpose after an afternoon of shopping with two young children.
We hadn’t booked, but they were able to accommodate us. Before seating they asked us to track and trace via the NHS app.
Our server wasn’t that friendly and seemed out of touch. I can only assume after some time off he may be a little rusty.
We ordered kids meals and two pizzas, one gluten free Margarita and one Hot honey classic with some halloumi bites on the side.
Service was easy but a little wooden, our pizzas came really quickly. The Hot honey was the highlight for me although not as spicy as advertised, The honey was a new experience for me on a pizza which I quite enjoyed. (Im a pineapple on a pizza fan).
Everything else was as you expect from a chain, nothing stood out or really let the place down. I would go again, but only as a quick meal when We’re to tired to cook.
Marmalade & Jam is a cosy, independent family-run cafe tucked away on High Street in Ely. It is a place I walk past often but have struggled to get into thanks to its small size and immense popularity. Today, while on the hunt for a quick lunch, luck was on my side and I managed […]
This visit was part of my ongoing journey eating my way through Regent Street. I have walked past it dozens of times over the years, and the name has always made me chuckle. I was tempted to pop in purely out of curiosity, thinking it would make a fantastic addition to my Xiao Spots series. […]
I haven’t felt a countdown to the opening of a cafe or restaurant quite like this. I have had dozens of people (especially my sister) bugging me day and night about the opening date for Catte Latte. Dozens of cities across the world already have cat cafes, and the idea is pretty simple: a cafe […]
Cambridge isn’t blessed with a wide variety of Greek or Spanish restaurants, and that goes doubly so for al fresco dining. So imagine my delight when I caught wind on The Cambridge Foodies Facebook group that Soleá Bistro had opened. It offers Mediterranean cuisine with a focus on Greek, Spanish, and Italian dishes, complete with […]
