Craft bars have slowly made their way to Cardiff from Bristol and I for one am very happy. One of the latest bars to do that is Kongs, an 18+ only bar that features among others Pac-man and Streetfighter II arcade games. It’s essentially what you’d stereotypically call a man cave and a cave it… Read More Kongs Cardiff
The other day I tried out a new recipe that used butternut squash as a sauce for pasta topped with some fried sage. The combination of the squash and sage was truly delicious, and as I had both available to me last night, I decided to make a soup with them. This is a very… Read More Soup-er Simple! – Squash & Sage Soup Recipe
It’s the beginning of the week and apart from wanting 5pm to arrive and go home and curl up in front of the telly or lay in the sun, we also probably want something quick and comforting for dinner, no fuss, but delicious, something to reward yourself for getting up in the morning and having worked… Read More Leftover Pulled Pork Chilli Recipe
I was dying to try out a new recipe for SaucyPans.

However, if you are a bit odd and only like to munch on frozen treats in the summer, then here is a super simple recipe to keep you cool in… Read More My popsicles bring all the boys to the yard… – Vegan Ice Lollies Recipe
This week has been a tad full on. When I get stressed, my first instincts are to go for a long walk, buy something exciting to eat, or to find a nice rich and fruity red wine to send my worries off in to the hinterland. I’m trying to exact a bit more self control… Read More Some days, you need a sundae – Vegan ice cream recipe
I really am not a good Korean girl. For one, I can’t speak the language very well, having moved away at the age of five. But I also live the frivolous, drunken life of a typical British gal, just without the right to vote. When it comes to food however, I think I’ve made my… Read More A Korean Feast: Jap Chae Recipe
