Restaurant Miceli, Selva, Mallorca

04/08/2016 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Restaurant Reviews

Some friends had warned me that we needed to book a table at Resturant Miceli in Mallorca before we even flew to the island. I would never usually do this kind of thing – I’m nowhere near organized enough – but this time I did…and I was pleased I had. Our last evening on holiday […]

Review – The Curlew, Bodiam, East Sussex

25/05/201626/05/2016 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Restaurant Reviews

You know, there are dinners and then there are dinners – the truly memorable ones you look back on and go ‘Aaaahh, mmmm’. We had one of those recently at The Curlew in Bodiam, East Sussex (it’s close to the dreamily beautiful Bodiam Castle if you’re looking for another excuse to visit). We have been […]

A dishcrawl around Glasgow

20/10/2015 Emma O'Reilly 1 Comment Restaurant Reviews, UK

It’s a funny place, Glasgow. Despite a burgeoning restaurant scene and a wealth of culinary talent the city is yet to boast one teensy Michelin star to its name. Go figure…What this means in practice is that there is no hiking up of prices and no complacency. And besides, Michelin stars aren’t everything. I recently […]

Angelus Restaurant, London

27/08/201531/08/2015 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Destinations, Restaurant Reviews, UK

On a London sleepover a couple of weekends ago we were invited to dine at Angelus Restaurant in Lancaster Gate, just north of Hyde Park. It is owned by Thierry Tomasin who, in previous lives, was Head Sommelier at Le Gavroche and General Manager at Gordon Ramsay’s Aubergine. Thierry really, really knows about good French […]

Healthy holiday food in Mexico

27/05/201528/05/2015 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Restaurant Reviews

For my third and final missive from Mexico, I wanted to talk about the cuisine, which is amazing. I have always thought that Mexican food is delicious. I have never thought of it as being healthy – nachos dripping with cheese, tequila, tacos dripping with cheese, tequila, enchiladas dripping with cheese, tequila, quesadillas dripping with […]

The George Grill, Rye

28/04/201504/06/2015 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Restaurant Reviews

I’m not a big fan of hotel restaurants. They so often seem to lack atmosphere and you end up feeling you’re in an Alan Bennett play…all uncomfortable silences and clinking cutlery at the dinner table. Not so at this busy, buzzy place in Rye where I enjoyed an evening recently with Mr Gallivant. It’s one […]

Restaurant Kopun, Dubrovnik

11/04/201511/04/2015 Emma O'Reilly Leave a comment Croatia, Destinations, Restaurant Reviews

You will see many a local at Restaurant Kopun in Dubrovnik’s Old Town – and that’s always a good thing. We rocked up when we were looking for somewhere a little less crowded and touristy, away from the main drags. The location is just lovely, right opposite the beautiful old Jesuit church of St Ignatius. […]
