Way back before Percy Pigs, Five Guys & The Great British Bake off – I decided to go in to catering. Yes, admittedly I wasn’t doing that great at school, dyslexia inhibited me to get straight A’s but I had an amazingly practical brain and an entrepreneurial spirit. I thought if I studied catering I …
If you’re like me and you travel to eat, then when you’re on holiday you wouldn’t want to waste a single meal – ever restaurant & every meal counts. So, I was thinking if I was coming to Norwich for a week on holiday where would I choose to eat from the experience that I …
About a year ago I noticed a buzz on social media about Nelsons Gold. Then a few months later I bumped in to Steph and Matt at a trade fayre, the couple behind Founding Drinks. Now the proud parents of three little beauties – Wild Knight Vodka, Nelsons Gold and the new baby Boadicea Gin. …
I was watching ‘Victoria’ last night and Albert commented that the British press referred to him as a sausage.

(Also known as ‘Musca Domestica’ in the Pantry) It’s about this time of year that I get an influx of house flies flittering around my kitchen annoying me, landing on my flesh, my food & my work tops – I hate the little bug-gers. It was over 20 years ago that I was at city …
When someone contacted Love Norwich Food and asked me to taste test their brownies – I wasn’t going to say no. I love Brownies, it’s my favourite dessert, it’s the reason I don’t like cake, it’s the goo, it’s the crispy top, it’s the rich chocolatey kick – it’s simply the best dessert known to …
