🍜 The CARGO Tokyo Shuffle: Part One 🍣 My friend hadn't been to Seven Lucky Gods or Woky Ko Kaiju, so I decided that the best thing would be to visit both in one evening! . First we visited @sevenluckygodsbristol, and ordered something from every bit of the menu: kimchi fries, katsu arancini, crispy squid, tuna sushi and fish & chip sushi. I'd not tried the kimchi fries before and they were much better than I've had elsewhere - a good helping of zingy kimchi on the nicely seasoned fries, simple and VERY moreish. And those arancini are just as addictive as you've heard from everyone else. I also really enjoyed the sushi - the textures from the fish & chip sushi were particularly good. Oh and the squid was bang on. So in short we made good choices! . We sat out on the terrace, but the vibe inside is always buzzing, with funky music (always just loud enough, not like back when MeatLiquor was open and I had to shout across a small table), neon bar lighting, a large freehand mural and a gorgeous carved wood bar that runs almost the entire length of the joint, facing the open kitchen. Playful and fun, with banging food & cocktails to match. Lovely stuff. . Part Two: Wokyo Ko Kaiju coming soon! . . . #wappingwharf #foodgram #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #sevenluckygods #sushi #izakaya #visitbristol #bestofbristol #bristol247 #hellobristol #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bristolindies #summerinbristol #bristollove #kimchi #kimchifries

Impromptu lunch on Stokes Croft with the @duchess_media ladies - we opted for Caribbean Croft which I've visited a few times before but haven't been to in a while. I went for the jerk chicken breast which was a bit dry at the edges but the delicious sauce made up for it. The rice and peas were also good, fluffy and coconutty without being too stodgy. I need to try more of the menu, but the goat curry and jerk pork belly I've had here before were both lush. We also shared the red mullet trini (battered fish in a sweet and dense dumpling-like roll, probably a bit heavy as starter for me, but good for soaking up cocktails!), oh and seeing as it was my freelance day I went balls to the wall and got a Jamaican Mule, which immediately went to my head. Worth coming in and ordering a selection of dishes, it's always got a great vibe in here, the food is tasty & generous and the cocktails are STRONG. . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #stokescroft #summerinbristol #bristollunch #bristollife #bristollove #bristolindies #visitbristol #hellobristol #bristol247 #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bestofbristol #caribbeanfood #caribbeancroft #jerkchicken

[Complimentary meal] The lush team at The Burger Joint invited me down for a meal to celebrate their 10th anniversary (happy birthday! 🎂). I go to the North St branch fairly often anyway as it's a please-all option, and getting to tick off my choices when building my burger never gets old! This time I decided to branch out from my usual order (peri chicken, chorizo, roasted peppers, guacamole and Frank's Hot Sauce) so we had the chilli cheese fries to start (first time trying them, very tasty, although the ones at Three Brothers are still my all-time fave), then I chose a beef burger with egg, chorizo and roasted peppers, and hash browns on the side (!!), all good, but I prefer my regular order! What's yours? Long live The Burget Joint! #ad #invited . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodtour #foodgram #burger #southville #bedminster

Koshari - simple and tasty comfort food on a grey day! Anyone have their own variations on this dish? . . . #koshari #lunch #homecooking #egyptianfood #lentils #pasta #rice #vegetarian #vegetarianrecipe #veganrecipe #kushari #kuchari

Visited Taco Barra in St Nick's for the first time this week - really liked the simple set up and pricing (choose one taco for £3, two for £5 or three for £7), with a selection of meat or veg fillings, salsas and dressings. I went for pulled chicken with mango salsa, and crispy chicken with salsa roja & guacamole. The pulled chicken was the tastier of the two (plus it came in a blue tortilla, woo!) and I'd like to try the carnitas or halloumi next time. This is what I've been waiting for in a taco stall; cheap, cheerful and most importantly: tasty! Obv it's a different standard to the tacos at Cargo Cantina or Masa + Mezcal, but for a flavoursome and filling (I was more than happy with two) lunch, you can't go wrong. St Nicholas Market is smashing it at the moment, every single food stall is an absolute winner! Do you have a favourite? . . . #stnicholasmarket #stnicksmarket #tacobarra #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #bristol #bristoluk #swisbest #summerinbristol #bristollive #bristollife #visitbristol #bestofbristol #bristol247 #hellobristol #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bristolindies #taco #tacos

Who loves bottomless pizza? This guy right here 🍕 I got us tickets to the Pizza Giro at @berthaspizza for Tom's birthday (I am the master of self-gifts), where basically you pay for the night and then shout for pizza, and it's an unlimited supply! . Our table of 4 managed 7 pizzas, highlights were the asparagus with bacon, and the lomo with egg & potato, but the @bristolsqueezed collaboration pizza was also ridiculously good - I keep thinking about it! Keep an eye out for the next event, absolute bargain at £22 for the early bird tickets 👍 . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodtour #foodgram #summerinbristol #visitbristol #bestofbristol #bristol247 #hellobristol #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bristolindies #wappingwharf #pizza #pizzagiro #berthaspizza #foodporn
