It's been on my to-do list for aaaages, but I finally visited @grano_kitchen, and it didn't disappoint! The menu is nice and simple - pizza, foccacia sandwiches, a couple of pasta specials and a selection of farinata (new to me - chickpea flour flatbread wraps, gluten free!). The pizza was really tasty and the base was lovely and fluffy with a nice crunchy underneath, it was the sort of thickness of school dinner pizzas (which I loved, for the record), but obviously 10 times better. The salami and goats cheese on top were bangers too. The farinata is down to personal preference I think, they were clearly well made and the olive oil tasted high quality, but I'm just not a fan of oily food so I probably wouldn't have it again. I'd recommend you try to see what you think though! . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #granokitchen #oldmarket #visitbristol #hellobristol #bristol247 #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bristolindies #bristollife #farinata #pizze

I don't need an excuse to go back to my old stomping ground of Easton, but when @casa_verde_catering was announced as the new vegan pop-up at @no12easton, like a proper keener I messaged to book a table before they'd even set booking up 🙈 Anywho, we had a lovely evening and ambitiously ordered almost everything on the menu between the two of us, and only had minuscule leftovers! I did appreciate the walk back to Totterdown though...Who else has been or is planning to go? . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #easton #bs5 #veganbristol #bristolvegans #vegan #popup #bristol247 #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bestofbristol #bristollife #bristollove #bristolindies #visitbristol #hellobristol

Why can I never order a sensible amount when I go to @sevenluckygodsbristol? 🍣 . . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #wappingwharf #sevenluckygods #izakaya #visitbristol #bestofbristol #bristol247 #bristolindies #bristollife #bristollove #bristollunch

I really love these photos of the most recent Let Me Tell You a Story, Jack! by @tomshotphotography - another great evening of stories, songs and spoken word 🙂 Incidentally, Tom is a brilliant photographer, especially of people, so if you're looking for someone to take some portrait or candid snaps, he's your guy!

I absolutely love Scandinavian food - fish, pickles, dill, excellent pastries, what's not to like? So I've been keen to visit The Nordic Cafe in Bedminster since it opened, and I really enjoyed the goats cheese & walnut open faced sandwich I had, Tom had a pastrami one, and then I ordered a plate of pickled herring on the side, which came up a far bigger portion than I expected! The menu is short and sweet, definitely worth a visit if you like this sort of cuisine - the cakes look banging too. . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #bedminster #bs3 #northstreet #nordicfood #opensandwich #smorrebrod #smørrebrød #pastrami

After years of walking past and curiously nosing at the menu, I finally visited Don Giovanni's opposite Temple Meads (yeah, that place!) with a bunch of buddies last week. It was everything I expected and needed that evening; great value, hefty portions and delicious wine (especially the Prosecco). . I went for the roasted aubergine with mozzarella and tomato to start, followed by the fennel sausage tagliatelle (which came with 3 huge whole sausages!) and amaretto panettone bread and butter pudding with pistachio gelato to finish (as good as it sounds, everyone ended up digging in!). This place has the relaxed vibe of an old school Italian restaurant but with a few more sophisticated touches, so you could quite happily go for a birthday meal or date, or just for lunch with colleagues. Comparing it to Pasta Loco or that ilk wouldn't be fair seeing as it's doing its own thing, and sometimes you just want a plate of hearty pasta and sausage without anything too fancy or spendy. I also love Sergio's in town and La Grotta on Union St, are there any other old school trattorias you'd recommend in Bris? Or dishes I need to try? . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodtour #foodgram #dongiovannis #templemeads #templegate #bristollunch #visitbristol #hellobristol #bristol247 #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bristolindies
