We’ve been expanding our search around the Huddersfield area for new restaurants to try and last weekend we decided to head over to Destination in Slaithwaite for a Friday night out and were very glad we did. Slaithwaite itself has quite a lot of development work going on in the town centre so the restaurant…
I have driven past Laxmi many times and thought, must give that a go, it looks good. So a few weeks ago we headed over there one Friday evening and tried their Early Bird menu. Overall the restaurant gives a good impression, the interior is modern, the staff welcoming and the tables well laid out…
I had the very good fortune to visit Prashad on the outskirts of Bradford this New Year’s Eve and what a fantastic place it is. Although modest from the outside it as a Michelin Bib Gourmand, two AA stars and serves a delicious Gujarati vegetarian menu. We didn’t have a huge amount of time so…
Undoubtedly one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at, Swadish in Glasgow’s Merchant City is an absolute joy. Its bright modern interior matches a fantastic menu and the staff were exactly as attentive as you would wish. Not too much, and not too little, attention. It was summer time when we visited and…
This is the second time I have eaten at the Blue Tiffin restaurant in Oldham and both times I have enjoyed it! A work colleague recommended the restaurant to me as they visit almost weekly with their family. When we (my friend and I) arrived I was pleasantly surprised by the decor, definitely a step…
It’s actually in Netherthong before anyone complains, but anyway here’s what our editor thought when he visited recently… Sweet Chillies is a great little restaurant that shares it’s home with the local pub (The Clothier Arms) in the picturesque village of Netherthong above Holmfirth. There’s nothing fancy about it and it is very much in…
Who opens a restaurant in a pandemic? Well one correct answer is the Delhi House Cafe now open and accepting bookings in the Corn Exchange in Manchester. I’ve been under a 6 week lockdown for various medical reasons so had to delay my first visit but finally, last Sunday, my wife and I made our…
If you have £10 and are looking for a great meal and are fortunate enough to live within striking distance of Bury Market, head over to Naunit’s and pick up one of their £10 meals. They also do a £20 deal for a larger family. We tried one this weekend…
Shabas Balti Restaurant in Birmingham‘s Balti triangle is opening this weekend and here’s the steps they’ve take to make sure their clients are safe when they visit.
It’s always great when you discover a new source of street food and we were lucky enough to come across Naunit’s Gujarati Street Eats this weekend on a visit to Bury Market. Specialising in a range of traditional vegetarian Gujarati snack foods I tried their Channa Chaat special which came served on top of a crushed samosa, all for the very reasonable price of £3.50. It was bloody lovely I have to say and the perfect lunchtime meal. Mildly spicy and with a hint of Tamarind this is a different recipe to the Channa Chaat I have made at home but it was much better so I am going to…
