A day out in Chester ☀️

We ended up in by the river and enjoyed several appetisers from their menu! An excellent American restaurant that even had a small movie theatre!
🥔 Loaded burger tater tots - these were so more-ish and had lettuce, so they were healthy, right!?
🌮 Brisket tacos - we are not big fans of flour tortillas, but the filling was excellent.
🍗 Hot honey chicken - THE juiciest chicken we've ever had. And perfect hot honey to dip.
🥒 Fried pickles - these had the crispiest batter and we could have ordered another round if these!

10/10 would go back just for those fried pickles.

We took the advice of to heart and finally made our way over to Kennington to visit the ! 🔥

We just HAD to try some of their doughnuts, choosing the passion fruit & raspberry option and we kid you not that it may well be the best doughnut we've ever had 🍩
It's definitely inspired us to create our own recipe for soon! Keep an eye out 👀

We also got a lovely iced coffee to go with it. Just perfect on a hot sunny Sunday ☀️

Owned by , this incredible bakehouse not only produces some of the most incredible baked goods you'll ever have, but also helps support ex-prisoners as part of its social enterprise ❤️

Friday night butter chicken ❤️
It's been a while, however after making tonights dinner we couldn't help but share it! Butter chicken is one of our absolute favourites, and tonights take on the recipe is incredible 🔥

A delicious spiced onion rice, topped with toasted cashews and coriander, and a homemade yoghurt flat bread was a perfect way to spend the Friday night!

Also, thanks to for the lovely Portuguese white wine to go with it! Cheers! 🍾

Beckford Canteen 📍 Bath ❤️
If you are looking for an exceptional Sunday lunch today, look no further than the in Bath. A beautiful restaurant with exquisite food.

This meal is one that the two of us are surely not going to forget as not only was the food great but it was also our on 5th anniversary weekend early this January!

We chose the beef with horseradish, and the pork with burnt apple sauce. Both came with a selection of incredible sides including cabbage, carrot, swede purée, cauliflower cheese and a Yorkshire pudding (more on that later!). The highlight side however had to be their INSANE confit potatoes. Crispy & yet fluffy, these golden bites were probably the best potato we've ever had!

For dessert, they had two specials, for which we HAD to select both.
The first was their take on an apple pie by using their unbelievable tasty Yorkshire puddings, filling them with apple filling and topping with cinnamon ice cream and clotted cream! This is something we are 100% going to try and make ourselves as it was ingenious! 🍎

The second was a take on tiramisu, and our favourite of the two desserts. This included acoffee meringue/cake, topped with cardamom ice cream and covered in a coffee foam and coffee nibs. The way the cardamom & coffee worked together was mind-blowing and something that we are still dreaming of 2 weeks later! 💭

We paired the meal with a lovely, light chilled Italian red and left the restaurant wanting to do it all over again! We will definitely be back and highly recommend anyone visiting Bath to pay a visit themselves ❤️

Buca Mario 📍 Firenze ❤️
If you are ever are visiting Florence, the incredible has to be at the top of your to do list.

Located in the heart of the city in a 16th-century vaulted dining room, this restaurant is the complete package. Location, ambience, and most importantly, incredible food!
Buca Mario prides itself on high quality, local and seasonal produce. This meant that a number of our choices were only available due to the time of year we visited (in September) such as courgette/zucchini flowers!
Also, even though this restaurant is on the , it does not come with the outrageous price tag which is always a welcome surprise.

As this was our first visit, we opted for a selection of different dishes so we could try as many different things as possible. These included:
- Sliced steak fillet with potatoes & mushrooms.
- Homemade spinach and ricotta raviolo in a butter sage sauce.
- Homemade potato gnocchi in a gorgonzola sauce.
- Fried courgette/zucchini flowers.
- Fried seafood plate.
- Tiramisu.
- Lemon tart with fresh berries.
- Liquor soaked pear with cream.

We paired this with a lovely bottle of local Tuscan Chianti red wine. A must have when in Florence 🍷

For those of you that know about Florence, there is one particular dish that we didn't have the opportunity to taste during our visit, and that is the 'Bistecca alla Fiorentina' aka. the Florentine Steak 🥩
Due to the size of this dish, we opted to go instead for the fillet steak this time around, and instead save the Florentine for our next visit -- which is taking place next week for our 5th anniversary! We cannot wait! ❤️

This is an absolute must visit, and one we cannot wait to return to next week. Thank you for an experience we won't forget!

Sunday G&T's at the 🍸♥️

Had the most lovely after visiting The Eagel House this afternoon and sampling their own gin Eagle One! These included their Spring, Summer and Winter gins!

- Spring was full of delicious citrus notes 🍋
- Summer had lemongrass & raspberry notes! ♥️
- And Winter, Ben's favourite, had cardamom and orange with stronger spiced notes on the pallet 🍊

We highly recommend popping in to visit their gin bar, as well as their great dinner menu 🥰

Also, from their terrace with incredible views of the rolling Cornwall hills, you can also see the Launceston Castle on the hill above the hotel! 🏰

Beef brisket with mashed potatoes, courgettes and kale ❤️
With the weather being so all over the place at the moment ☀️⛈️ we felt like making some comfort food for dinner last night, and the beef brisket in the slow cooker was the perfect choice!

Paired with some courgettes and mashed potatoes, this was a perfect midweek, low effort meal with all the flavour! 😍

Highly recommended this awesome brewery that also does amazing pizzas! 🍕
