Still on the go?  I reckon it was 2012 when I was there last. 

Yep, went last week. Been going there for at least 25 years and it's still just as good.

 

Up market dining for a very reasonable price in a lovely setting.

 

Favourite UK restaurant.

Has anyone been to barceloneta recently? I went ages ago and it was good, bumped in to Claudio who was there. Wondering if it’s still decent. 

[Guest Lako42]

Anyone been to The Frame? 

 

Walked past on Monday and looked nice.

It’s good, reasonable pricing but I found two bones in my fish cake when I went last year. It’s a lovely place to sit that’s for sure.

Yeah been twice, pretty reasonable for high(er) end dining. I'd recommend it

Echo the above, really enjoyed my visit to The Frame.  Lamb Kofta was excellent.

Wasn’t hugely impressed with The Frame when I went.

[Guest Lako42]

I'll give it a whirl. Cheers

I went for the day last year, still a lovely City. Although, it's one of my ports of call in a couple of weeks and I'm not getting off the ship.

Close enough

Going out in leicester for something to eat on Saturday, a date. Been donkeys years since I went out, will be in city centre. Been through the last few pages of the thread but nothing jumping out at me. Any recommendations? Price not an issue up to a point, nothing daft like 50 quid mains.

Not quite a restaurant, but Bombay Bites down Brauny Gate after a few beers Saturday more than hit the spot.

If it doesn’t I know who to blame.(joke)

Wild Tango where the White Peacock used to be is getting some very good reviews 

[Stuntman_Mike]

@Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot I just realised my comment might have looked like I was suggesting a takeaway off the Narb was the ideal date location. It was just a complete coincidence I randomly typed it about the same time 

 

I agree on Sonrisa and Gadabout being good for a date though

Used to live on Albion Street many years ago and would often pop into the Belvoir Street one for dinner.  Food was quality and the guys working there had music on so loud it was borderline distressing.
