What better way to spend the afternoon than in good company, eating delicious nibbles, sweet treats and drinking tea?! It certainly ticks all the boxes for me. I love afternoon teas; it can turn a catch up with an old friend, or a celebratory afternoon out, into something that little bit extra special. A few […]

I was born in Swansea, and have lived here for most of my life. Over the years I have seen some wonderful food establishments come and go, as often it wasn't the right time, or location despite having really good food. It's left me always looking further afield for that special meal, as opposed to […]

Abergavenny has to be one of my favourite places to visit... EVER! For a start it's really central, just an hour from me in Swansea, but it also has good connections from anywhere in the South West or even North Wales. Despite being relatively easy to get to, when you arrive it feels tranquil and […]

  You may remember last year when I came home raving about River Cottage after spending a day there with Foodies100. Thankfully, they hosted another event this year, but this time it was an evening event filled with blogger networking, cookery demos and of course, a delicious three course meal with canapes, amuse bouche and petit […]

If you've been to Swansea, you'll have probably heard of Joe's Ice Cream. It's a local ice cream that we all know and love. So it's great news that they have recently opened a parlour in Llanelli. As part of the opening I was invited to try their new sundae, with a meal at the Red-10 […]

Read the latest review about the new menu at Sosban Lanelli.

Everyone has some sense of pride and bias for where they live, but I am lucky enough to be able to say I live near the Gower. The UK's first designated area of outstanding natural beauty. I'm also lucky to have some pretty awesome friends. Friends who  believe in me enough, to ask me to present to […]

On a recent shopping trip to Cardiff, my family and I were looking for somewhere convenient, but tasty to eat. I had been invited to the Shake Shack opening, which originated in New York and sees Cardiff as it's first UK opening outside of London. My sister was very excited as she LOVES anything to […]

We recently stayed at The Vale Resort for one night dinner bed and breakfast as a nice night away from all our housework and stresses at work. Read on for my review.

The latest addition to the restaurant scene in Cardiff is Locke & Remedy. As part of their opening weeks, they invited me to review their new venture. As part of this, the food and drink mentioned in this post were free, all opinions are genuine and my own (or my sisters, who I took with […]

    I'd always heard that if you were into food festivals, that Abergevenny Food Festival was one not to miss! But until this year I had never even been to Abergevenny, let alone to the food festival. We were recently invited as guests to attend, and headed up on a glorious Saturday.   Below is […]

I've heard so many good things about this restaurant, it's been on my list to visit for years. A recent impromptu date night with my husband gave us the opportunity to visit as they had room for us. Read on for my review of Pant Y Gwydr restaurant. Location Located in Swansea city centre, Pant […]

So you're going to The Big Feastival? Lucky you! There are plenty of reasons why I love the Big Feastival! I'm a major Jamie Oliver fan, and Alex James too. Set in an idyllic part of the world, it has music, heaps of food, places you can play, places you can chill out, and is a […]

    The Britannia Inn, or 'The Brit' is pretty well known if you live in Swansea. I will always affectionately know it as 'the pig pub' as years and years ago, when I was a little girl it had two pot bellied pigs in the garden, which I LOVED. I would always ask my […]

I recently visited the newly opened Quay 3 in Swansea. I was pleased to find a vibrant and stylish bar and restaurant, offering great food.
