Maracuya/ Rico Sabor restaurant, Greenwich Peninsula
It was a sunny Sunday, I decided to choose a restaurant by the river. It was suggested to me actually. The weblink I was given signaled it was wheelchair accessible and LGBQ+ friendly (?!). We were a party of four from different parts of London so the proximity to Jubilee Line was useful. We were […]
Rixs: Grilled lamb and Malabar Fish Curry
I went a few weeks ago and totally forgot I meant to write about it! It was a sunny day and I was set on sitting outside for lunch. Peni came with it and we sat out at Priory Place Rixs. They offered grilled meat and we both decided on the lamb. I also chose […]
Antalya restaurant: Sauté prawns and spinach
Our conference is finished – Annie and I were shattered but we needed to eat before catching our separate trains. We started walking and stopped outside the Antalya Restaurant. A waitress gave us a table by the window. We started to relax. We had mint tea. We had some aubergine caviar and a spicey fresh […]
Busaba Eathai: Pandan chicken and sticky rice
I was at a conference. My colleague had gone back to her hotel, we re both waiting for other colleagues for dinner. I love wandering around London, I have a terrible sense of direction and I get lost all the time. (even with google map on my phone). Anyway I passed a Thai restaurant and […]
Chaophraya, Birmingham: Tom Yum, Massaman curry etc
When Sarah invited me to Chaophraya near the Bullring in Birmingham, I wasn’t too excited because I thought it was a buffet. But when I got there it soon became apparent that we were going A la Carte. I love sea food tom yum soup so I went for it while Sarah had the satay. […]
Steak at Hippopotamus, Strasbourg
It was lunch time and we did not have much time before meeting someone at Les Halles, the shopping centre in Strasbourg. It was wet and there was a chill in the air. The first restaurant, a Vietnamese restaurant we went to, we couldnt get in. So we settled for the Hippopotamus having had been […]
Blue Orchid, Coventry: Seabass grilled wrapped in banana leaves
A group of us went to the Blue Orchid for a meal – some wanted to try Thai but others were more familiar with Indian cuisine. This restaurant serves both, a definite plus in its favour when you have a mixed group! We had a lot of space to ourselves as well. Those of us […]
Red Panda, Coventry
Red Panda is tucked away in a quiet corner opposite Coventry Market. It is a Chinese buffet ‘eat all you can’ restaurant. But if you are in the know, you realise most of the Chinese clients there order a la carte. So we, Naomi and I, did, and they gave us appetisers – spicy cabbage, […]
Za Za Bazaar, Bristol
I was in Bristol for a blogging mini conference. At the end of that conference on Saturday, went out for dinner on my own . I was tired but didn’t want to eat at the hotel, nice though it was – it seems so lame to have hotel food. I was near the Harbourside, the […]
