Disco Fries were at Wolf Down Pop up this week down under the Tramline bridge on Station Street. It was a sunny day, I was hungry for Street Food, my Dance Card was empty, so it seemed like a perfect excuse to take a stroll in from over the river to check them out. I…

Lily’s Umami on Goose Gate in Hockley in the space formerly occupied by Chicken Licious and Flavour Bites has recently opened.

Thunder Road Kitchen is located on the crossroads of Goldsmith Street, Talbot Street, and Burton Street.

Squeaky Beaver Poutine at Six Barrel Drafthouse
Six Barrels Draft House in Hockley has been hosting a pop-up by Squeaky Beaver Poutine over the last few weeks. Now I really do like a nice bit of the old ‘Poutine;’ and have sampled it quite a lot as a snack back over in the States admittedly mostly whilst checking out breweries and bars so…
Dog Dam Good – The Bourbon Hot Dog

Breakfast at Mary’s Kitchen near Sneinton Market
Mary’s Kitchen near to Sneinton Market on Southwell Road in Nottingham is a great little cafe. It would be somewhat churlish to describe it as a ‘greasy spoon’ as it was a lot cleaner and brighter inside than your average ‘caff‘ I popped in this week in search of a breakfast and was pretty happy…
Fish and Chip Friday at the Embankment Club and Kitchen
It was Fish and Chip Friday and I found myself in The Embankment Pub by Trent Bridge looking up at a Chalkboard that was enticing me with an offer of Beer Battered Haddock with Chips for £9.95. How could I possibly resist? The Board had promised a plate of “Locally sourced Haddock fillet, hand battered…
The Lamb Barbacoa Burger at Smoqued
I was last chomping food from Smoqued at The Nottingham Street Food Club back in November last year when I was trying out some of their delicious food. I had chowed my way through their Carne Asada Tacos and I have to say that it was pretty darn good (Read More about that Here) I…
Bacon Cheese Burger from the Secret Burger Club
The Burgers at The Secret Burger Club are so good that it is hard to resist their charm and so I find myself making more and more visits, which is great for both of us I feel. It also means that I found another great burger to eulogise about! This time I was sampling one…
