Lunch at Yuce’s Mediterranean Restaurant

We had a special lunch date with Robin, as she didn’t have school and her siblings did. These sorts of days are so special – one on one time is rare with such a big, adventurous family. When we asked Robin where she wanted to go, she wanted to try out Yuce’s, as it looks so fancy from the outside and she had never been. Dann and I had gone a couple of times, and were excited to try new food with her. Yuce’s is a Mediterranean Restaurant that has a nightclub above it. They have an expansive cocktail menu, and some great lunch deals as well.

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Wontons

Dann and I love going to cooking courses, though we haven’t been to enough thus far. This year, we are trying to attend more local events and be a bigger part of our local community. With that in mind, and after seeing the Harlow Chinese School advertise their Wonton Cooking Course, we were excited to see what this was all about.

A Late Lunch at Marco’s New York Italian

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I love going out for a bite to eat! As an American living in England, I was pretty excited to try out Marco’s New York Italian, at their London Bridge location. Using their gift voucher for a meal for two, we had a bit of a set dinner, with a starter, main and dessert, along with a glass of prosecco included. Booking for the voucher was easily done on our website, and we did not need to show the voucher at the time we arrived either.

Midweek Meal Inspo; BBQ Chicken, Roast Ham, Loaded Potato Soup, Taco Pizza and More

This week is a mix of big meals, complex meals, and more simple meals! We had some chaos, some simple meals that the little ones could help with, and some that just gave me a bit of a break from cooking big meals. Hopefully this gives you some inspiration for your own menu creation for the week!

Mowchi Lakeside Review – New Bao Restaurant

Whenever there is a new Asian food place opening near us, we do take the time to visit! Mowchi opened a location in Lakeside, so we went on opening day, to try as much of the menu as we possibly could. Mowchi doesn’t have a huge menu, there are two types of fries and a handful of different bao. The bao itself falls under two types; regular bao buns and bao-gers, which are like huge bao buns on large burgers. We tried one of each food, and each got a tea.
