GourmetGorro: The Hellenic Eatery, Crwys Road, Cardiff Greek restaurant review
http://gourmetgorro.blogspot.com/2015/02/the-hellenic-eatery-crwys-road-cardiff.html
GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Thursday, 12 February 2015. The Hellenic Eatery, Crwys Road, Cardiff Greek restaurant review. I’ve got a hell of a lot of love for Hellenic food. When I was 18 years old, a lads’ trip to Faliraki involved me leaving the nightclub early every night to get to the kebab shop for a gyros fix. It’s therefore wonderful news that the recently opened Hellenic Eatery on Crwys Road is so good. Lastly, grilled feta (£3) was delicious but the least...

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Thursday, 29 January 2015. The Walnut Tree, Abergavenny, Wales Michelin-starred restaurant review. There’s one restaurant above all others which holds a special place in my heart. You see, almost exactly five years ago, Mrs G and I got engaged at The Walnut Tree in Abergavenny. It was a canny plan on my part – it means that whenever Mrs G and I have a special anniversary I’ll get to visit one of the best restaurants in the UK. An amuse bouch...

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Saturday, 28 February 2015. Cardiff Bakestones Welsh Cakes, Cardiff Central Market. Welsh cakes aren’t all that. right? Before I moved to Wales I’d never even heard of them. And, the ones my colleague in work made yesterday were as solid as Jamie Roberts’ biceps and as dry as the Millennium Stadium’s bars after a six nations match. However, when it comes to warm. Welsh cakes fresh off the bakestone, it’s a completely different story. Cardiff...

GourmetGorro: December 2014

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Sunday, 28 December 2014. A few places to eat in Paris. The last time I visited Paris, nearly ten years ago, I ate utter garbage. Well that is except for all those baguettes, croissants and crepes. Thanks to the help of an untrustworthy travel guide, nearly every meal consisted of unmemorable, barely edible, overpriced slop. The faint memory of duck in honey sauce with spaghetti at a dingy Montmartre restaurant still haunts me. In Relais de ...

GourmetGorro: April 2015

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Saturday, 25 April 2015. Wright's Food Emporium, Llanarthne, Carmarthenshire review. Wright’s Food Emporium, in Llanarthne near the National Botanic Garden of Wales, is the brainchild of restaurateur, broadcaster and writer Simon Wright. Much like its owner, the café-cum-restaurant-cum-delicatessen is a jack-of-all-trades and master of all. Drinks comprised of a filter coffee and a root beer. A soft yet crusty home-baked ciabatta roll was st...

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Saturday, 30 May 2015. Mini Bar, Lisbon restaurant review. You’ll have to pardon my over-enthusiasm. A couple of weeks ago in Lisbon I had one of the most delicious, interesting and technically accomplished meals of my life. And the bill for two, including a ten course tasting menu, cocktails, wine and service, came to 120 Euros. Yes, that’s £86 at the current exchange rate. Individual tapas (separated on the menu into “acts” in ...Cocktails...

GourmetGorro: Chutney Roti, Whitchurch Road, Cardiff restaurant review
http://gourmetgorro.blogspot.com/2015/08/chutney-roti-whitchurch-road-cardiff.html
GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Saturday, 1 August 2015. Chutney Roti, Whitchurch Road, Cardiff restaurant review. Chutney Roti on Whitchurch Road is an interesting proposition. Their menu largely comprises of home-style Indian food with a strong showing of fish dishes. In fact, one of the menu’s sections is called Sea World - reassuringly there’s no sign of Willy or Shamu. Mains were all very good. Dhaba lamb (£8.50) contained a generous amount of yielding meat i...Ginger...

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Saturday, 25 July 2015. The Pickled Radish @ The Laleston Inn, Bridgend restaurant review. The Laleston Inn is a slightly tired, quiet, gloomy and dated 700 year old pub in the village of Laleston near Bridgend. So far so unexciting. However, around the back of the building there’s something far more interesting happening - The Pickled Radish has taken over. Cheeky Fish ’n’ Chips (£9.80) was a beautiful looking and tasti...DIY soup was a bit...

GourmetGorro,Cardiff food blog, South Wales restaurant reviews. Tuesday, 14 June 2011. The Gilbert Scott, London, Review - Guest post by GourmetGilly. The Gilbert Scott opened for business in May this year. It is the flagship restaurant of the recently refurbished Renaissance Hotel at St Pancras station. For those interested in a bit of history the restaurant is located in what was originally the Midland Grand Hotel, originally designed by a certain Sir George Gilbert Scott. Whilst we waited for our star...
