Earlier this week, I visited The Huntsman of Brockenhurst for dinner. It was my first time visiting the pub (and Brockenhurst for that matter!) and it was a really lovely evening. I’m looking forward to returning in the summer! I was kindly invited along to taste their new Spring menu – which you can see … More Dinner at The Huntsman of Brockenhurst, New Forest
On a very rainy Friday, we visited Chichester for a wander and some lunch – my first time visiting Chichester ever! After getting rather damp, we decided on Wahaca for lunch. I’ve only been to Wahaca once before, but was excited to try it a second time as their street food is amazing! I must … More Lunch at Wahaca, Chichester
The Sunday Roast – an important tradition in every English household, but I have always found it challenging to find the perfect roast when dining out. Now, I don’t want you to get too excited… but I think I’ve found it. A quaint village in the Hampshire countryside is home to the perfect cosy pub. … More Sunday Roast at The Vine, Hambledon
‘Lakaz Maman’ is a Mauritian Creole phrase meaning ‘Mum’s House’ – which perfectly describes the relaxed, cosy atmosphere of Lakaz Maman. Owned and run by Shelina Permalloo, this Mauritian street food restaurant is full of colour and serves up some truly delicious food. Shelina won BBC’s Masterchef back in 2012 – so you know straight … More Brunch at Lakaz Maman, Southampton
I’ve lived on the South coast for around 6 years, so I don’t consider myself to be a local and I’m still discovering great places to eat nearby – Supermarine in Woolston, Southampton being one of them! I was invited to try the new menu at Supermarine with a lovely bunch of fellow bloggers – … More Supermarine Wood Fired Pizza – Woolston, Southampton
While we were in Padstow back in October, we spent a lot of time thinking about food, eating food and researching where to eat next. So, with that in mind, let me show you our rather spectacular breakfast! We decided to go out for breakfast at Rojano’s, which is near the harbour front and tucked away … More Breakfast & Beer, Padstow
Our final day on the Isle of Wight was my birthday – so we spent the day mooching round and eating in Cowes! Which is a pretty good way to spend a birthday, if you ask me. We went for a ride on the new chain ferry, from East Cowes to West Cowes (the main … More Where to eat in Cowes, Isle of Wight
We visited The Needles on what turned out to be a very breezy day (evidence as above) – which was a little disappointing as the cable car was shut down! There’s still a fantastic view though. The weather was so windy, grey and miserable that we simply had no choice but to return to The … More The Needles & Newport, Isle of Wight
Garlic. Who doesn’t like it? I personally love garlic, so The Garlic Farm on the Isle of Wight was a must-visit. I’ve never seen so many varieties of garlic before (who knew there were so many?), but we really went there for the shop and the restaurant. Yes, they even put garlic into their beer. … More The Garlic Farm, Isle of Wight
Back in September (I’m slowly catching up, I promise!) we went on a boat trip across to Chichester Harbour. Unfortunately, the weather was a little bit grey and miserable – but that didn’t wipe the smile from Tom’s face! We’ve visited Chichester Marina many times by road, as the onsite restaurant is one of our … More Boating in Chichester Harbour
