Home-Cooked Dinner, Cod & Smoked Haddock Fishcakes 16/12/13

Yes, another home cooked meal-I'm spoiling you all! 

This time, fishcakes. I have never made fishcakes before so I thought why not?! I decided to go for Cod & Smoked Haddock fishcakes, with a Béarnaise sauce and a Poached Egg.

 They were fairly easy to make to be fair.

Phonlik, Knowle 14/12/13

WOW, whilst writing this blog my mouth is watering. This is one of the best restaurants I've been to; Phonlik, Knowle. My dad has been going to this Chinese for years with his best friend and I have been yet to try it, I finished work really early one Saturday evening so me and my dad decided to go-I certainly don't regret it! 

The atmosphere in there is lovely, very busy but the service is top class-we got a table straight away and the waitress (who we actually knew as she used to run the takeaway where we live!) got us drinks straight away. The menu is so good, a little bit different to traditional Chinese food-with some dishes I haven't seen before, I liked this about the place too. Service remained fantastic throughout the meal too.

Zizzi, Worcester 12/12/13

I'm loving writing this blog post, this was such a lovely meal. The girls and I decided to have a Christmas meal before breaking up for the holidays and exchange secret santa presents. We had been to Zizzi's a couple of weeks before so we all wanted to go again, especially as the Christmas menu was a very good offer £2- each including a glass of prosecco each. But as we had to pay a £5 deposit each first it worked out as £15 on the night. The restaurant was very busy, surprising as we were there early evening like 5.30/6. The service was slightly slow but as we were all having such a lovely time, we barely noticed and didn't let it bother us. We ordered our starters, the only option to have on this Christmas menu was some sharing starters-I thought it was quite bad you didn't get any other options at all but it was a good idea and I could see the point as its easy for big groups, the starers came very quickly which was good as were all starving!
