I had the club sandwich, usually that means BLT - but not this was something more special; bacon, cheese, chicken, lettuce, tomato and Parmesan fries. Wow. The beer was a bit expensive, 4-5 quid for a can of something American (Brooklyn, Sierra Nevada etc) - but given the environment, it's not a begrudging purchase. Go there, order the chicken or pancakes and rejoice - don't order poached egg and watercress like my girlfriend, she had serious food envy over mine!

Everything from the décor to the beer selection to the bizarre (and admittedly delicious) Lucky Shake does indeed scream Williamsburg. They're open all day, but brunch seems to be what they do best. I enjoyed my waffles and fresh fruit, which had a pleasing cinnamon flavor. I don't like whipped cream much, so I was happy to find out that it comes on the side. My friend had good things to say about her smoked salmon bagel, which came with a solid inch of salmon. The coffee is nothing to trek across town for, but is reasonably priced for the quality. Feeling adventurous, my friend and I decided to go for Lucky Shakes after polishing off our breakfast trays. What a wild ride. Whipped cream, hot fudge, fresh strawberries (see mom? I eat fruit), a donut, and a strawberry milkshake....needless to say, I only had about a third of it before giving up, but what a flavorful third it was. Man, I really need to start eating vegan again. If you're coming here for the novelty of the shake, go light on the food - it could be an entree on its own.

Yesterday was pancake day, I received an email from bills about their pancake party, I had to go!!!…read more I phoned up for a table for 3 people at 5.45 to 6pm but was told they were fully booked until 6.30pm! So I left it. My colleagues and I walked into Sheffield from our hotel, deciding on cafe rouge as they have crepes on the menu but thought we would try bills for a table as its only next door! We saw lots of empty tables, asked the staff for table for 3, they said yes!! My colleague asked why we couldn't get a table when we phoned up, to be told they keep some free for walk ins. Meal was fine, and we ordered the pancakes as dessert, the waitress was knowledgeable in explaining what each pancake consisted of! Plus have suggestions for cream and ice cream to one guy. It's a nice restaurant, which is a chain, slowly opening in different cities as they opened in Birmingham now!

So after the debacle at one of the Bill's in London, I kind of stayed away for awhile. I know…read more.. not every location is the same, but sometimes you are really just put off by the memory. However, I was putting together a day of team building, with lunch to get out of the office and also get to know each other since this would be the first time we would all be working in the same office. I scouted the area we would be in, so we could just walk and not have to worry about public transport or driving and Bill's seemed to be the restaurant that was most convenient, but also offered a wide variety of food that would cater to everyone. I booked online and even though we were a bit late, it could not have been easier! It was nice and cozy and had that rustic, market feel about it. We had hummus and tzatziki with bread and crudite to nibble on while we tried to decide on lunch. For starters I had the Avocado, Bacon, and Spinach Salad, while the other three had the Crispy Lemon Squid. I don't know if they all planned it that way, but it was nice to see that clearly, they have something in common :). Everyone seemed to enjoy the squid and the salad was really nice... in fact it was so nice that I thought maybe I should have ordered it as a main. It is filling, but still quite light. For mains two had the Buttermilk Chicken (which looked awesome), one had the Kale Salad (which looked lovely, but I'm not a fan of raw Kale), and I had the Lime and Coriander Chicken. The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was wonderful! If anything they could do with serving it with some warm, soft corn tortillas and salsa. The sweet potato fries were a nice side, but if I am being honest, I don't remember the kale coleslaw at all. I remember there was a coleslaw, but nothing else about it. It was still a really nice lunch, although there were remarks about how it was a touch on the pricey side. Service was efficient and at the end when two of us stayed to have a chat, no one rushed us off, which was really nice. Overall, a great way to get reacquainted with Bill's.

However, we went to Browns and were seated around 3:10 (afternoon tea is served from 3-5.30). When we ordered the afternoon tea about 5 minutes later, we were told that "the cook hadn't made enough food and we couldn't have afternoon tea". An utter joke, and also kind of worrying that even the food served at 5.30 is apparently prepared three hours prior. We ended up going somewhere else and ultimately enjoyed ourselves, but this was ridiculous.

It was just a matter of time before something on the events night emails from Inox would catch our…read moreeye. The event that caught our eye was 'Game Night'. I actually thought, "Oooo board games and food?!" You can tell I work with students because that was my first reaction. However, it was actually a celebration of game meats, pheasant and venison. I have been to the venue before, as we used it for a training day, but it is very easy to forget that it is at the top of the Students' Union. University car parks are available for free (if there are no barriers) after 6 p.m., so customers coming in for an evening event should be able to find parking close to the S.U. They are not open for dinner each night, just for events at night, but do have a lunch menu and also offer Afternoon Tea. We were a bit early, but were greeted, checked in, and then shown to the bar where we were able to order drinks. What is interesting is the fact that Mr. Snarky's reaction was similar to mine and other reactions I've heard... "It is very corporate." While it is modern, it doesn't quite have that intimate feeling that restaurants of this style typically have. We found a place to perch while having our drinks and waiting to be seated. I have to say that the service is really very good, very friendly... even when we were there for our training day causing problems :). We were seated near the window, although sadly we could not see much because of the bushes and trees in front of the S.U. They also offered a wine flight that provided a wine chosen for each course, so I decided to take part in it. The brought us two rolls and two mini Yorkshire Puds with a bit of gravy in the bottom. It was lovely. My first wine was brought out, it was a white wine that was really refreshing and a bit citrusy. The first course was pheasant done in an Asian style with Pak Choi (Bok Choi for my American friends) and a dumpling made with the leg meat. The pheasant was very nice, but the sauce was too overpowering. Not entirely sure what the sauce was made of, but it seemed like a thick soy sauce that was more bitter than salty. The dumpling, the part I was most excited for, was a good idea in theory, but in practice the outside bit of the dumpling was quite thick and the little bit of leg meat that was inside was a bit dry. However, I will say that the dish and the wine really went well together. For the second course, they brought out a red wine that was lovely because it had this hint of spice, great for a red meat, but there was a bit of sauce on the plate that was so sweet that it kind of ruined the wine. To be honest, I'm not sure what the sauce was because the only sauce it mentioned on the menu was a jus, which was there and lovely, but this was like a fruity puree that was far too sweet. The venison was served medium rare and it was beautiful...very tender. I was a bit skeptical of the Venison Faggot as I've never had Faggot before, but it was really nice, particularly with the jus. It was served with some kale and a fondant potato. By far my favourite course of the night, although again, that fruity puree was unnecessary. And dessert... was a Pear and Apple Crumble with Salted Caramel Ice Cream and Pickled Blackberries. The crumble was missing the actual crumble part... there was a bit of the hazelnut crumble sprinkled around, but there wasn't enough to call it a 'crumble' in my opinion. The apples in the crumble overpowered the pears, but the star of the show was the Salted Caramel Ice Cream. I told Mr. Snarky that if they sold pints of the ice cream, I would buy a few, which he agreed with me on, which is unusual because this is not a flavor of ice cream that he would choose. The one bit that was a bit off was the pickled blackberry... the blackberry was already a bit sour itself, but then to add the pickling on top, it was like eating a Warhead (you know those super sour candies). Overall, we did enjoy our night and while there were highlights, there are also some things that could do with some improvements. Around the time dessert was coming out, the club in the bottom of the S.U. started playing music and it kind of killed the mood and made us think it was time to head home, even though it was only 9 p.m. For the 3-course event it was £32.50 pp, and the wine flight was £19.00, so a bit of an expensive night out, but not bad. A bit of a strange place to have a restaurant like this, but would be happy to come back for another special event.

First-rate real ale pub in Sheffield, a 15-minute walk from the city centre…read more Superb pubs in England are often to be found in the least likely places. In Sheffield, The Devonshire Cat is one (totally boring, anonymous neighborhood, see my review) - the much more famous Kelham Island Tavern is another. Calling its location an urban wasteland isn't too much of a stretch. Close by, btw, is another famous local pub. The Fat Cat. So, speaking as a real ale lover, if you're in Sheffield, you wanna go there. The selection of beers - from hand-pumped British real ales to European lagers - is very impressive, and the decor is by no means stylish, but cozy and intimate. There's solid pub food (not available all day , plus the usual selection of snacks from crisps to Scottish eggs. The staff are knowledgeable about the beers and friendly, too. If you need another reason to come out to Kelham Island, one would be a visit to the fairly interesting Kelham Island Museum, which is another 5 minute walk from the pub and focuses on the city's history of steel manufacturing - one of its attractions is Britain's biggest surviving working steam engine.
