villa4europe Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 You'll enjoy it, it's really good, really interesting menu, I went in the summer, probably changed but if it's still on there I can't recommend the popping candy, meringue and coconut dessert enough Also been to his Argentinian, had a mixed grill to share, beautiful, still got to go to his lobster place Also seen that purnells bistro has had a make over so will have to pop in there, best Sunday dinner in brum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Anybody been to Hickory's in Kingswinford yet? My taste buds are begging me to go, but I can't get a table due to stupid mother **** Xmas parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Buffalo n Rye has opened next to Bodega in Brum. They do ribs / brisket / burgers / hot dogs etc. Style themselves as a Bourbon diner. Same owners as Bodega / Jekyll & Hyde / Victoria etc, so you know it will be decent. Might be worth checking out if you are a meat fiend! I was meant to go on Friday but ended up elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Eaten out a few times this week Turtle Bay (twice) - very impressed. Had the Trinidad chicken curry with dumplings. Very tasty. Tried some of my mates goat burger, which was nice as well. Do some nice cocktails there as well. Went again a couple of days later for a jerk chicken wrap and sweet potato fries. Again, lovely Hen & Chickens - superb Indian mixed grill that hit the spot. Second time here and would recommend to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Where is currently the best ramen in Brum? Might be trying Yakinori in Grand Central later, but keen for other recs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 For anyone curious, Yakinori was OK. Just OK. We had a duck and seafood ramen, the duck was delicious, the seafood not as good. Both were very oily though. Sushi was fine, nothing out of the ordinary. If anyone is tempted to try it, you should defo go for a takeaway bento box, which looked super for £5.99. Rice or noodles plus 3 from a selection of other items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I had a cracking curry in London a couple of days ago, The Rajdoot on the corner of Paddington Gardens, between Chiltern Street and Marylebone High Street. If you are looking for somewhere quiet in, quite frankly one of the loveliest parts of central London then it's totally worth checking out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't shake the idea that Floella Benjamin and Brian Cant have left it quite late for a career change to go into the restaurant business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) just got back from hickorys in kingswinford, bang on. the only thing i did not like about it was that they are very funny about who they let in and turn people away a lot, either over the phone or at the door.
