While staying at Alton Towers, we wanted to check out the Rollercoaster Restaurant – a place where you can eat, but your food is delivered on a rollercoaster. This is a pretty unique gimmick, listing it as being the only place that does this, so we didn’t want to miss out on the chance to eat there. It is worth noting that you do need to book well in advance, and a lot of people are actually there celebrating their Birthday, which involves the entire restaurant having Happy Birthday play over the speakers during the meal. This happened like 7 times while we were there, which was wild.

Mini Egg Cookie Recipe
Our house has been big on cookies lately! Robin is going through a phase where all she wants for dessert is cookies and milk, so we have been making butterscotch cookies, chocolate chip cookies and more. As Easter is just around the corner, I wanted to make some that felt like it matched the holidays. Mini Eggs are one of Dann’s favourite treats, though we haven’t been able to find many in big bags in the shops this year! This cookie recipe, though, can totally work with any sort of mix-ins you want to do. You just need to mix in the same weight as in the recipe.
Hazelnut Melting Moments Cookie Recipe
When it comes to wintertime, one of the fondest memories I have from when I was a child was creating cookie trays with my grandmother. Though there were tons of gingerbread cookies and sugar cookies that you can decorate, my favorite to eat was always these Hazelnut Melting Moments cookies, which are crumbly, hazelnut cookies with chocolate! They are a bit less moist than other cookies, and feel like they go great with hot chocolate or other warm drinks. This recipe was actually written by my grandmother herself!
Best Meze Grill – Really lovely food and atmosphere
We have spent a lot of this year going to Legoland, and there is one thing that Legoland sucks at; food. There really isn’t any good food to eat there, so we started looking for places nearby that would be able to fill our bellies with dinner. Best Meze Grill is a Turkish restaurant that really lives up to it’s name. The building is small, but cozy, with the owner always on the floor, ready to recommend you food and be one of the most accommodating owners I have ever met. We’ve essentially become regulars at this establishment as it is just so good.

Tasting the Summer Menu at the Giggling Squid
[Ad- gifted experience] When it comes to vibrant, well spiced Thai food, Giggling Squid is a perfect place to eat. We entered the Giggling Squid and were in love with the décor. The entire place is so beautiful, with bench seating that has flowers hanging from them, looking so adorable. Pictures on the walls of hand-drawn squids, everything is so beautifully themed. And the smell of food wafting through the restaurant is absolutely mouth watering. Dann and I were really excited to dig into some delicious food – and totally ordered way too much! Giggling Squid has a limited time, Summer Menu which you can enjoy until September 4th. We got some dishes from that menu and some dishes from their regular menu as well.
