JJ’s food bar up on Boundary Road in West Bridgford is a slightly classier bacon and egg cob emporium than those which I often tell you about. It is nice and clean and friendly inside which is always a good sign. It also comes with a simple menu, mainly coming from the ‘world of the breakfast’ which…

Chunky Chicken – A Box of Fried Chicken one Friday Night
This last Friday evening as I exited the Orange Tree pub, the shining illuminated beacon of Chunky Chicken two or three doors down on Shakespeare Street called out to me as I passed by. Perhaps this wasn’t going to be my finest hour in the search for some culinary delights, or perhaps it would be, I just…

Roosters Piri Piri Chicken – ‘spicy and mouth watering’
I know I should not really be advocating a trip to a chain resturant, but on this occasion I am going to make an exception for Rooster’s Piri Piri. They have a tagline “Changing fast food for good”, now I have to be honest I am not sure that I wanted anyone to change my fast food. It…
Munch Munch chicken it’s cheap not cheep, but cheerful
I was not quite sure how keen I was on eating a late night takeaway in a former public toilet, how keen would you be? That was the situation I found myself in the other night. The Munch Munch chicken takeaway and I hesitate to say resturant was housed within the old public toilets at…
