OK, I can’t find a decent link for this restaurant, so here are the contact details: 12 Station Yard, Needham Market, IP6 8AS Tel:01449 722330 Carol and I had a great meal out here on 11th February 2009 with regular dining companions Sam and Mark.

Well, another excellent eating place for our collection! I had a meeting with our prospective PR partner in Felixstowe, and she had booked a table for an 11.00 a.m meeting at Cafe Bencotto. After introducing me to a charming lady who is one of the owners, my companion and I enjoyed a fine cup of [...]
Well, this is a real find! In Brighton on business at fairly short notice, I dropped in here as I was attracted by the boards adverting fusion Euro-Asian dishes from which I deduced Filipino…and I was right. The food was really special; I started with spicy vegetables, and then followed with an Aristocrat special, a [...]
Lesley and I selected The Old Ferry Boat Inn on November 13th for our most recent Board meeting, as it is near Huntingdon where she was visiting on business, and only an hour and a bit up the road from where I live. It’s not necessarily easy to find! but well worth the search. It’s [...]
Update 2/10/2008 Visited again with our friends Dave & Tara, and another lovely meal. Skipping starters (as usual!) we went straight to the mains. I ordered Celeriac, Leek and Chestnut Pie, Carol and Dave had the Mushroom special from the board and Tara went for the Roasted Vegetable and Brie Tart (which was fabulously presented) [...]
How felicitous is Stroud – not only do they have the delightful JRool Bistro but they are doubly blessed with this equally charming restaurant which was recommended by our local cab driver, Steve, who looked after us during our business trip. Although we actually arrived at 6.20 pm, 10 minutes before official opening, we were [...]
Update: Carol and I revisited (also on business) and we had a wonderful meal: she had a roasted vegetable “crumble” with chick peas, and my main was roast chicken. We had skipped starters to leave room for dessert, ha ha! The Pinot Grigio was perfect (Carol opted for San Miguel). For dessert, we both ordered [...]
We were fortunate enough to spend a couple of days with some close friends in beautiful Derbyshire lately – and doubly fortunate to land at The Crispin Inn for lunch. A warm greeting from the landlady and drinks were rapidly forthcoming, after which we ordered baguettes – 2 beef, one ham and a cheese one [...]
Whilst on business this week, I was invited to a group business lunch at Gallini’s The location is fabulous, right on the Quayside at Swansea, and through the large windows on the first floor you can see all the yachts and cruisers moored there. The food is authentic Italian; Donna Angelina watches over everything and [...]
We dined here with friends on a Thursday evening, and were surprised at how empty it was. The restaurant is nice and cosy, and the service is friendly and responsive. I had the soup of the day, and then two of us had the lemon sole, which although OK was not outstanding. Sam had pork [...]
