31K in Nottingham have always been known for their excellent cocktails and meatballs Now in 2022 they have decided to take a little swerve in direction ‘downing our meatballs tools for 2022′ and presenting the new @31K.notts tagline – ‘cocktails and kitchen’ Hopefully on occasion there still may be a meatball featured but I get…

Meatball Action at Bar 31K
I love Bar 31K and their meatballs, they really are some of the best I have had the good fortune to have eaten on my on my travels near and far. It is hard to believe that 31K have just reached their 2nd anniversary of opening, but this last week they passed that milestone. It…
Breakfast at Hartleys
Hartley’s Cafe lies Carlton Street right on the confluence of Broad Street, Goose Gate, and Stoney Street., and is as they say in their own words “In the Heart of Hockley” I had been walking past over recent months, often mid morning on a weekend and had seen loads of people sitting in the window…
Lunch at Botti di Mamma
Botti di Mamma on Broad Street owned by Edin Gondzic is the most recent reimagination of the space formerly occupied by Edins Deli Cafe and Edins Continental Cafe. The last time I was eating here was in July last year when they had knocked the Deli Cafe through into Lee Rosies Tea room to expand…
Back to Smoqued: Buttermilk Fried Chicken Box and the secret Cheef Burger Special
A week or so back I was over at Smoqued in Nottingham Street Food Club checking out their loaded fries and a Maple Smoked Pork Belly Bun (read more here). Spoiler alert they were pretty goddam good. I was talking to the chaps from Secret Burger Club next door about just how good those loaded…

The Hungry Pumpkin, a deli and café in the Lace Market for lunch

The Crusty Cob on Castle Boulevard for a satisfying greasy spoon style bacon and fried egg cob
The Crusty Cob on Castle Boulevard is one of those local places that I love to find when I am either looking for a sandwich at lunchtime or for some sort of breakfast cob situation. It is pretty visible from the main road, but as you turn in to the side street to park you are…
Tasties Travelon in St Anns for some good honest Jamaican Cooking
Tasties Travelon at 265 St Anns Well Road is a restaurant and takeaway specialising in West Indian dishes. I had seen this place from the road as I had driven up the Wells Road on a few occasions. I love a bit of Jamaican food and the colour of the outside gave the game away when…
