Is it really a year since the last goose fair? Looking forward to going again this weekend, so was looking back at what we found last year and makes me even more keen and excited

Mr Tea Too – Breakfast Butty on Queens Industrial Estate
Mr Teas Too Van is located over on the Queens Drive Industrial Estate just off Longwall Avenue. You may have seen a white board on the junction of Queens Drive, Crossgate Drive, and Robin Hoods way pointing down Crossgate Drive towards this van? No? well I did and I needed a cup of tea and a bacon butty so I pulled…
Sunday Lunch at The Embankment on Trent Bridge
The Embankment on Arkwright Street just a few minutes stroll from Trent Bridge has recently been taken over by Castle Rock Brewery. As a devotee of the beers served by the Castle Rock Brewery this news was music to my ears, and salivations, or is it salutations? to my taste buds. I can remember coming…
Homemade Café at the Pavilion 10th anniversary party and New Summer Menu Launch
Last night we spent the evening with the lovely people at Homemade Café at the Pavilion on the Forest Recreation Ground celebrating their 10th Anniversary. As well as an alfresco party amongst the beautiful people of Nottingham we were treated to cocktails and nibbles to taste from their new Summer Menu. I should start off by saying that…
The Phat Doughnut Co – They are kind of awesome! do I need to write a whole blog post to tell you that?
The Phat Doughnut Co bill themselves as “Nottingham’s first independent Doughnut Delivery Company.” Wade Smith and Megan Scaddan are the latest local producers to make waves on the city food scene. I had heard some great things about them and have been looking out for them over the last month or so. I had narrowly missed them at the…
The Jerk Shack – Gonna get me some chicken, rice n peas
Have you spotted that Food Truck Van in the Wickes Store down near the river at the Wilford Bridge crossing? I kept on seeing it n the car park, as I drove along Queens Drive, on my way to and from town and being a curious food hunting type of guy I just had to pull in to find…
The Trent Fish Bar – Fish and Chips for Lunch? Why Not
I am back on my mission to eat at random Fish and Chip shops in the county and so today I drove over to the Meadows as I knew there was a Fish and Chip shop on Turney Street. This place is the Trent Fish Bar and it sits on the corner of Bunbury Street…
Rock and Roll Burgers at the Lion in Basford – Awesome and Messy in a good way
The Lion at Basford is one of the pubs along the Nottingham Tram Line that should be on your list of pubs to visit. It has a lot going for it; a fantastic selection of beers and real ales, a lot of regular good music, and for a writer of a food blog and self confessed glutton,…
Dancing Dragon at Canning Circus – Spicy Sichuan Fare.
The Dancing Dragon Chinese Restaurant, specialising in dishes from Chongqing, up at Canning Circus is another one of the City’s restaurants serving up authentic Sichuan food. I have walked past this place on a few occasions on my way back from some of those excellent pubs in the circus and had also been curious to see what…
Homemade Café at the Forest Recreation Ground
I really like going to Homemade in the city centre but it is so popular and busy sometimes it is hard to find a table. So bearing that in mind this Sunday afternoon we took a little stroll across the Forest Recreation ground past all the kids young and old playing football on the park…
