Most of the food here is cooked in atraditional clay oven style which means that it's not quite as fast as your usual fast food outlet but if you get the chops by God you'll be glad you waited.

I'm not entirely sure what is so different about clay oven kebabs but one thing is for certain you can taste the high quality. I have ventured into this place on many a drunken night and have always found it to be excellent value and excellent taste on the whole. This place is different to your standard takeaway and even serves roast chicken and the best word to describe that particular taste is succulent, I cannot describe what a treat it was to get roast chicken as opposed to your standard takeaway fare. This place is really refreshing and does the job whatever your needs, with excellent staff and great value The Nile is one of the best places to visit in Smithdown.

It ensures that it caters for both the workers in the hospital and students in the area by offering discounts for NHS staff and students alike. It has ample seating for the regular flow of customers and is kept clean and tidy by the staff. The staff are friendly and are happy to advise if you are confused by the extensive menu available. They pay attention to detail as they make your sandwich and take care in what they are doing to produce the best result possible. There is toilet available in this branch, unlike most city centre branches. So you can freshen up before or after your meal. The toilets are clean and are obviously well maintained.

I felt his whisper before I felt him enter. "No aftershave you go home with Dave" he spat out softly into my ear. I would recognise that voice anywhere for it was the very same aftershave and soap distributer I had turned down the night before in the kind of night club I go to and stand at the side of the dance floor watching the crowded fleshy figures form in and out of each other in the collage of florescent light. As he entered me i let out a weak puppy like yelp hoping a house mate would hear. But he knew no one was in. Once he had finished inside of me we lay side by side in bed panting with exhaustion and hunger. He then broke the tension in the room and invited me out for something to eat. We then went down to subway and he bought me a 12 inch chicken tikka sub. As we sat there tucking into the delicious sandwich treat he peered down at me from across the table and bellowed out for everyone in the restaurant to hear "that's not the first meaty 12inch you've had tonight" I then sobbed into my rainbow cookie for the remainder of my stay. Other than that the food was delicious and made fresh and fast 5 stars with exceptional service

I had an awful fish & chips dinner in London last week so he brought me here to make up for it as he says they're the best he's had so far in the UK. Let me tell you that it lived up to the hype. A beautiful large piece of flaky haddock so lightly fried and it had an audible cracking sound when I put my fork to it. We had started with an octopus starter from the specials menu which had lovely fresh flavors and my husband enjoyed the squid ink risotto which was also delicious. Cute place and nice staff. I look forward to going back and trying more of their dishes, everything sounded great.

That changed quickly when…read morethe homie Shay M. was hooking it up with the hints on where to go for some of the good stuff you can only find out here! Enter... ASDA!! It's a grocery store, but this particular location has 2 stores under 1 roof. The Home Bargains store houses "hardline" items as well as a few food and drinks options. It's here at this location that I was able to find and snag the well-known English cookies (or "biscuits" as they're locally called) which are branded as "Digestives." I do believe these can be found in San Diego's Shakespeare restaurant and store, but they're probably limited on flavors and guaranteed to cost more. While here, I found some of the hot sauces Shay told me about. I have a friend who loves hot sauce, so I'll be gifting that to her along with other yummies. The Cadbury chocolate tub was also here, and on sale. 2 tubs for £9!! That's an unbeatable price! There's a small selection of fruits and veggies and also fresh flower bouquets. I love the prices at these grocery stores. If I lived here, I wouldn't worry too much about sales, but the ones they do have make the prices even more amazing! Gotta love it here at ASDA! Get your shop on and save a grip of money doing it! ;)

Last Saturday, I approached 3 different members of staff with different enquiries I needed resolving. I can only say they went above and beyond what I expected and remedied all my requirements . Many thanks to you all. I had earlier visited the instore Opticians, my original reason for attending the store and was served by a young lady, Kia. She was obviously well informed and trained. A credit to all trainers and recruiters at the store. I have never thought this before but I left feeling as if I was a truly valued customer, due to Kia and her 3 colleagues. I can only recommend visiting this store as it makes shopping a pleasant experience and not the usual chore. I hope the store general manager and department head take note of this review.

If you're the type like me who enjoys the odd experiment in the kitchen, then Freshco is a place where you can find exotic ingredients that you won't find in a typical British supermarket. Like Megan, I always enjoy browsing ethnic shops as I'm curious to try new products. Freshco also sells Halal food which is considerate for those who have religious beliefs. You'll find tobacco and international calling cards are on offer too. As a whole, this shop is like your Asian version of Spar containing a fusion of European and Eastern foods. At Freshco, you have a decent choice and value all under one roof. Great for a gander.

I love ethnic grocery stores--they are always so interesting. And for some reason, the fact that I can't read the foreign words on the food labels kind of makes me want to try stuff more than I would if I knew exactly what was in it. (I loved Soy and Worcester sauce until I discovered they both have crushed/pulverized anchovies in them! Yuck!) Here you will find ethnic foods like all different kinds of rice, tea, oriental spices, etc. but they also sell European foods, and some items that aren't typically British. It's a nice place to poke around if you like unusual food or if you're looking for something special for a recipe.

The decor inside is classy and modern also and you feel as though you are in quality surroundings and as such the food will be of a high standard. The most impressive thing about the restaurant is that they try to use local ingredients which is great to see and the menu is vast ranging from a rump of Lamb to Southport shrimps which incidentally I would recommend despite not being a fan of seafood . There are also great wines and a range of beers to be found also although nothing in Puschka comes cheap. This place is well worth the price and really is a niche within Liverpool's culinary ensemble so I would definitely advise the people of merseyside to try out Puschka.
