The Foodie Boys have tired of the restaurant scene of late. “A table for two please.” “Do you have a reservation?” “No.” That sort of thing. Boring. No! Calm down! Be still your beating dicks/fannys. That doesn’t mean our days of blogging about food are over! No, we’re branching out down some exciting new avenues … Continue reading Ferdie’s Food Lab – Supper Club

FoodieBoys food tour of Kent #LongRead
“There are only so many London restaurants, we don't want to run out before our domain registration, http://www.foodieboys.com, expires.” Tony sighed. “Too true, perhaps we should go and review some places in Kent. After all, Kent is much like London. They have similar accents, for example.” “I was thinking the exact same thing.” And so … Continue reading FoodieBoys food tour of Kent #LongRead
Review: Henry VIII (Hever)
To celebrate the day of birth of my lady friend, I decided to take her to a castle. I chose Hever Castle - the childhood home of Anne Boleyn. If the childhood home of a woman executed by her husband doesn't scream: "ROMANCE!" I don't know what does. We enjoyed a picnic in the grounds … Continue reading Review: Henry VIII (Hever)
Review: Rockfish (Dartmouth)
To celebrate Easter 2016 I decided to take a trip to Devon, as Jesus might have done had he been born in Birmingham rather than Bethlehem. On the Friday I decided to celebrate the death of the big JC by eating his favourite meal – fish, chips and curry sauce. I settled on the Dartmouth … Continue reading Review: Rockfish (Dartmouth)
Review: The Grey Horse (BBQ Whisky Beer)
Back in 2013, yeah, remember then? The Lib Dems still existed, King Richard III's skeleton was discovered under a Leicester car park and BBQ Whisky Beer won Ribstock. I was at Ribstock on that day - where 10 different types of rib competed for the crown of 'best rib'. I tried the BBQ Whisky Beer … Continue reading Review: The Grey Horse (BBQ Whisky Beer)

RS Hispaniola – 7 October
Last night I met some friends for a drink near Waterloo as it's a handy, central location which we can all get home from. We met at Topolski, a gallery and bar/cafe named after Feliks Topolski a Polish artist. Feliks would have been licking his whiskers at the prospect of the happy hour! I enjoyed two … Continue reading RS Hispaniola – 7 October
Toby’s Lunch: Bagel 7 October 2014
Working as I do in digital, the fellas provide a lot of lunchtime material, including breads and spreads. They certainly know how to get the best out of their workforce, I find myself motivated to work hard everyday. This lunch I've opted for the filled bagel, using fillings bought from the nearby Tesco Metro. Some … Continue reading Toby’s Lunch: Bagel 7 October 2014
Beijing spaghetti
Hey, Tony here. I don’t always play by the rules with my cooking and nothing shows this more than my infamous Beijing Spaghetti. I’ve taken a classic Italian number - spaghetti - and added an interesting Asian twist. What you’ll need: A frying pan. A spatula. A saucpan. A colander. Ingredients: Spaghetti (or other pasta … Continue reading Beijing spaghetti
On The Bab
Thursday's the new Friday. Thirst day more like. We headed to one of our favourite watering holes, The Old Fountain. Tony took on a couple of wheat beers and Tobes went for a couple of pints of Wreckless, and very nice they were too. We were pretty peckish after spying the buffet of a group of … Continue reading On The Bab
