Review: Four to Eight

The other day I met my lady friend after work for a drink or two, I can’t remember why, but I’m sure we probably had some reason or other. After the drinks one of us must have gone: “Hmm, by the time we get home it’s going to be a bit late to cook, shall […]

Review: The Laughing Gravy

Dark chocolate cylinder

On Saturday I found myself watching football and enjoying a beer when I received a text message. “Looking for somewhere for dinner, but everywhere seems to be booked up. Any ideas?” Said the text message. “What do you think?” I replied. “Not sure. Do you know anywhere?” “Are you seriously asking a FoodieBoy if he […]

Review: Porto Portions – Toby

Red wine? Baked goods? Confusing language? Toby, why are you in France again?? You’d be forgiven for thinking that (I think) but no, my latest food pilgrimage was to Porto, in Portugal. Just south of Spain, you’d be forgiven (I hope) for lumping them in with their Iberian cousins, but they very much have their […]

Review: The Butler – Potts Point (Australia)

Searching the ‘sydneyeats’ hashtag on Twitter ‘The Butler’ popped up, a French-Carribean place. Their bio revealed a Potts Point […]

A Mouthful of French – A Foodie Tour of Carcassonne

f I were to say to you “French Tapas,” you would be forgiven for slapping me around the face. If I were to say to you “French Tapas in the belly of a medieval castle,” you’d probably slap yourself around your own face in disbelief.

Review: The Boot – Lapworth

Now, I can hear you all screaming at your screens: “Where’s Lapworth? How is this relevant to me?” Well, a little confession. Tony here actually isn’t from London. I’m from the Midlands! No! Come back! And it is relevant to you because you might end up there one day, you simply do not know what […]

Taste of London – 20th June

What does London taste like? No, it doesn’t taste of concrete, or exhaust fumes, or underground carriages, or Big Ben, or the River Thames or even The Shard. It tastes of food. Taste of What’s To Come That’s why when AEG and Currys offered us the chance to attend Taste of London, we bit their […]
