Pie & Pint Night at the Seven Stars, Rugby

September 27, 2019 by Ellen

One of my fave locals and proper good award-winning pub. Every Wednesday from 6pm-9pm the Seven Stars do 'Pie & Pint Night'. For £10.95 you get a Pieminister pie with mash or chips, mushy peas or garden peas and red wine gravy, plus a drink...

The ones that got away – confessions of a bad food blogger

December 24, 2018December 31, 2018 by Ellen

In my blogging dreams, I diligently write up every single meal I eat and share them with the world. The posts come thick and fast and virtually every day there are new beautiful words for people to read with endlessly impressive descriptions of...

Checking out the revamped Bull’s Head, Meriden

October 22, 2018February 11, 2019 by Ellen

If you're in Birmingham, you're treated to a new opening, relaunch, party, shindig every single night of the week if you want one. But out in Warwickshire those kind of things aren't quite so regular. So when I was asked to check out the...

Stumbling on a good’un at the King’s Arms, Georgeham

September 19, 2018February 11, 2019 by Ellen

It's always satisfying when somewhere you have researched, planned and anticipated turns out to be as good as you hoped. But sometimes I think it's even sweeter when you literally stumble on somewhere with none of the above.

It's something...

Brunching at the Star & Garter, Leamington Spa

May 30, 2018May 29, 2018 by Ellen

Going out for breakfast or brunch isn't something Mr M and I do all that often. Yes, we go away a fair bit, but breakfast in a campervan is often a bacon sarnie or a bowl of cereal. And while I get to enjoy some nice breakfasts when I'm away with...

Escaping from it all at Jacobs Plough, Bicester

April 15, 2018 by Ellen

Sometimes, when it all gets too much, you just need to escape and curl up in a room away from home, sleeping at inappropriate times, eating an inappropriate amount of food, and forgetting about all the important stuff that constitutes...

The Strickland Arms – one of a kind

February 7, 2018April 18, 2018 by Ellen

As wonderful as our Scottish road trip was, like any holiday it had the odd low-point. It was the first time we'd gone on a proper winter trip in the van, and it's certainly a bit different to a summer jaunt. There are the added issues of drying,...

Scottish supper at The Old Bridge Inn, Aviemore

January 15, 2018January 16, 2018 by Ellen

Mr M and I have explored a fair bit of the UK, especially since we got the good old camper van last year. But we always seem to head south rather than north. That means one place we've seen very little of is Scotland. Well, I've visited once or...

Anniversary adventure at The Mash Inn, Radnage

October 7, 2017December 6, 2017 by Ellen

You might have noticed there's been a wee bit of a blogging break of late. I had all the most diligent plans in the world to write while we were on a merry jaunt around Europe but instead concentrated on rest, relaxation and eating ALL the food I...

A dog-friendly lunch at the Cornish Arms, St Merryn

June 7, 2017July 5, 2017 by Ellen

If you follow me on social media you might have seen we recently had a little jaunt down to Cornwall, where we ate ALL the seafood at various places in and around Padstow. The popular little town is somewhere that's become 'our place' for me and Mr...

Instagram post 2197556474552468559_48718263 Oh @hawksmoorrestaurants just as amazing as I remember from last time. Not gonna go on and on here. If you know you know. And if you don’t, read @jayrayner1’s words about Hawksmoor and take his word for it. And then message my friend @liannecooper and thank her for treating me 💓

Instagram post 2197122419998584981_48718263 Happy Election Day gang... (is that a thing?) I am eating my way into Christmas in a big way! Since Tallinn it’s been a rollercoaster of meals out, booze and lots of puddings. Last night’s venue - @egolichfield for my pal’s surprise birthday meal. The desserts were definitely the highlight - including this lovely lemon tart. Tonight I’m continuing the roll with another meal out. Good job I’ll be smashing out the steps in London and have hit the gym hard at the start of this week lol

Instagram post 2196706663532015765_48718263 Finally got a moment to share the photos of my gorgeous late lunch with @belucky123 as we kicked off the @belleabouttown Christmas celebrations in style at @quaglinos. My ox cheek main course literally fell apart at the touch of a fork and Emily’s mushroom risotto was so good she ate every last grain of rice. I may or may not have also snaffled a duck rillette starter and a pannacotta for dessert, all washed down with some lovely wines recommended by the sommelier with a glass of champers to finish. As you saw yesterday it was a #invite for Emily and she let me tag along :-) #london #westend #restaurant #quaglinos #festive #christmas #foodblog #foodpics #oxcheek #lazylunch #lunching #latergram #winterfood #yummy #instafood #foodpics #foodstagram #foodphotography #whatsonmyplate #yummy #threecourses #eatlondon #foodigers #londontown
Instagram post 2196099167083596189_48718263 Well, the interior of @quaglinos is rather beautiful. Came here with @belucky123 on a @belleabouttown reunion to check out the lunch. So technically it’s a #invite but not my invite. It really is beautiful and the service rather lovely - you’d best follow me if you want to see the food 😉

Instagram post 2195392774919742673_48718263 [INVITE] There’s a new blog post guys, and it’s all about booze. One of my fave local bars @insidethe22 invited me to try their fabulous Christmas cocktails so I feel it’s only fair to tell you all about them too. Based on classics, they bring a festive Inside the 22 to each one and I defy you not to find at least one that you like. Don’t worry, there’s mocktails too and they look just as pretty as the booze-fuelled ones too. Head over to the link in the bio for a sneak peek at all of them.. #cocktails #festive #cocktailoclock #martini #festivevibes #oldfashioned #hemingwaysour #champagnecocktails #mocktail #lovelocal #bar #rugbytown #warwickshire #mylocal #supportlocal #independent #christmascocktails #foodblog #bloggersunder3k #december #blogging #warwickshirebloggers #lovewarwickshire #rugbythetown #mixology #review #foodpics #instadrink #cocktailoclock #nofilter #nofilterneeded

Instagram post 2194969054459811146_48718263 Last night’s meal @farmresto was the perfect finale to the #Tallinn weekender. Swipe all the way to the right to see the epic window display that caught our attention on our first mooch round the Old Town then a quick read of the menu saw us book a table straight away. Great dishes with a modern European feel, using local produce. A beautiful interior and excellent, knowledgeable, friendly staff. A wonderful treat 😊

Instagram post 2193740239058495322_48718263 Interrupting the #Tallinn spam to tell you to check out the latest blog post which went live today. We visited the @masonsatmeysey when my brother got married nearby and thought it was really rather lovely. So I blogged about it - link is in the bio and yes I paid in full!

Instagram post 2193477598830308834_48718263 Well dinner in Tallinn on night one was rather lovely - ended up in a Medieval-themed restaurant purely by chance and decided it would do for the experience. Little did we know the food would be rather great too. Duck breast, pumpkin and cherry sauce for one of us, spicy beef with plenty of chilli for me, a great chocolate torte with tangy berry sorbet to share and a coffee laced with local liqueur Vana Tallinn. Oh, and a comedy stage show while we ate. When in Tallinn and all that 😆

Instagram post 2192473429461794275_48718263 [AD - invited] It’s so tempting to share all of the pictures from last nignt with you guys but I’m keeping a few back so you actually read my blog. I was invited along to check out some of the new Christmas cocktails at @insidethe22 last night. They’ve come up with an epic list for the festive season - something for everyone, well thought-out drinks that taste look as well as looking good, and all with a little story behind them. Im not telling you any more because I’ve got a blog post  coming up imminently but I can see myself spending a lot of money here over Christmas..... #cocktails #christmascocktails #festivecocktails #lovelocal #rugbytown #warwickshire #supportlocal #festiveseason #december #christmas #cocktailoclock #foodanddrink #cocktailreview #foodblog #bloggers #cocktailpics #cocktailsofinstagram #prettydrinks #discoverunder5k #latergram #bloggersuk #blogstagram
Instagram post 2192274886897946732_48718263 Had this ‘petit dosa’ starter at a place at @theo2london on Tuesday night and it was just right for what we wanted. Plenty of flavour in the sambaar, light crispy Dosa and a nice portion size. Sometimes the mainstream places aren’t that bad - we shouldn’t always dismiss them

Instagram post 2192262608517453666_48718263 Yesterday was so blimin busy there was no time for instas and suchlike. But here are some non food-related pics of lovely London on our Tuesday daytrip :-) Gonna be down there a lot over the next few weeks but not as a tourist - let’s hope I can squeeze the odd mulled wine in in between elections and stuff.

Instagram post 2190956994218517002_48718263 When your husband is freezing and demands ‘something bloody hot’ - bravo @curryshacksouthbank for coming up with the goods. Smokin’ hot chicken curry with all the toppings including an amazing scotch bonnet sauce. Exactly what you need on a cold Christmas market night on the south bank
