So on an unassuming side street near the Philharmonic in Liverpool, you will find the white archway to a culinary delight. Home to Chef Patron Paul Askew and being in the UK’s top 50 restaurants meant it had been on my foodie radar for a good while and so our 13th wedding anniversary seemed the…

Silk Road Tapas, Heswall
Silk Road is a tapas restaurant offering a great fusion of cuisines, from the Pacific to the Mediterranean. With small plates from Thailand to Greece, Turkey to Spain.

The Coppermine Creamery, Ellesmere Port
The long established Coppermine Creamery on Chester Road in Whitby, Ellesmere Port, has been on my list to try for a good while now. Open only until early afternoon though, I often missed the opportunity. But not this time! I purposely got up early to go and enjoy a traditional breakfast here. With no social…

A Trip To Türkiye
Turkey is our holiday destination of choice when we want a simple, no fuss trip, with good food, nice weather and seen as my parents live there, brilliant accommodation too. You might associate Turkey with kebabs and carpets but there’s much more to the foodie scene than meat on a stick. Though meat on a…

We were kindly invited down to try the Warrington restaurant, located at the Golden Square shopping centre. Parking was…
Twenty First Amendment, Hoylake
I’d heard good things about this speakeasy bar in Hoylake, and was excited when they said they could do a roast dinner suitable for Steve and his food intolerances. And to hear it was also dog friendly was an added bonus. So we drove up, found parking easily, and walked the dogs down to this…
Inglewood Manor, Cheshire
This year we chose Inglewood Manor to take our mum for a Mothers Day afternoon tea. The Edwardian Manor has an impressive frontage and is in beautiful grounds and luckily we found easy parking. A quick trot through the impressive reception area, complete with roaring fire, led us to a bit more of an old…
The Fishpool Inn, Delamere
Positioned on the edge of Delamere Forest, this family friendly venue is a favourite of ours. This time we went for Sunday dinner, without the dogs, so we could sit in the brighter restaurant area. The table we were given was in a lovely spot, despite being by a drafty door. Two of us went…
The Forge, Chester
I’ve written about The Forge before, but this time we went on a Sunday. For a Sunday lunch I have read all about. Able to cater to Steve’s food intolerances, we sat down and were guided through the menu by a lovely waitress. She listed what could and couldn’t be adapted and what wouldn’t need…
