The York Roast Co – wrapping up Christmas nicely
I’ve been meaning to try out The York Roast Co for ages after they invented the Yorkshire pudding wrap which became a massive media sensation. It got a whopping 25 million views on a single Facebook clip and has been raved about by everyone from the likes of This...
Temujin – It’s getting hot in here
Since I met Matt back in 2009 he’s been desperate to get me to go to Temujin up in Sowerby Bridge. It specialises in endless Mongolian stir fry and to be honest I’m more of a pizza and pasta kinda girl. Or so I thought! On arrival we were seated near to the open...
Brunch! Shaking My Maracas at Revolucion de Cuba in Harrogate
Brunch. It’s trendy now apparently. It’s always existed, though. It just used to be called eating lunch early. And, should someone ever research the origin of the brunch trend, then they will discover that it leads back to us mums. What to do when you have tiny babies...
A Right ‘Royale’ Treat at The Ivy, Leeds
I visited the brand new Ivy cafe in the centre of Leeds last Tuesday - briefly and blissfully toddler-free. Proudly one of the first to get to experience the latest edition to the flamboyant foodie scene in Leeds. I didn’t take note of available highchairs, nor...
REVIEW: The Ticket Office in Ilkley
Ilkley's super slick and sophisticated over 21s cocktail bar debuts its food menu this week and it's worth the wait. When The Ticket Office in the well-heeled West Yorkshire town of Ilkley opened its ornate doors in 2017, the joint put a night out on the town in...
Supper Club at The Local Pantry in Pool in Wharfedale
Pop-up school dinner themed dining fun Spam Fritters, Turkey Twizzlers, Toad in the Hole, Fish Fingers and a scoop of mash - nope, it's not what my six year old rattled off when I asked him what he's had for lunch on his first day back at school the other...
Reviewed – The Fleece in Addingham
Nothing short of faultless Move over Jay Rayner, when it comes to proper decent Yorkshire gourmet grub there's only one restaurant critic worth listening to and that's my mum. (All images are my own) Put a beautifully presented, delicate plate of food in...
Sod it, it’s Sunday… Sunday lunch at The Chevin Inn – Otley
I've been very clear all along that this is less about being on 'a diet', and more about changing bad habits and adjusting my lifestyle... Then I go and scoff a huge portion of jam roly-poly washed down with half a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc at The Chevin Inn in...
Lettin’ the Latin Love flow at Bossa – Leeds
...Six months into a backpacking adventure around the world with a bloke who I'd met less than eight months before we set off, who around about now, exactly 10 years ago, on 30th October 2006, was about to drop down on one knee on Copacabana Beach and pop the big...
Cooking up a Korean storm – Bulgogi Grill – Leeds
I expect that this is one of the reasons why there are very few Korean BBQ restaurants in Yorkshire, which is a big shame, because eating in a Korean BBQ restaurant is actually a lot of fun. Especially if just like me: A) - you are a fervent carnivore. B) -You so much...

My Mum’s Toffee Apple Baked Cheesecake
This cheesecake is a delicious autumnal pud my mum would make around this time of year….before every dessert gets super Christmassy and booze-soaked. There’s just the right amount of cinnamon to get you excited for the festive season and it’s a great way to use up any...

A deck load of fun! A day on-board a barge through Skipton
When my stepdad announced that he'd hired a barge for the entire family to celebrate my mum's birthday, I'll admit, I turned my nose up at the idea. My immediate thoughts were 'small children, stagnant canal water, travelling at five miles per...
