Afternoon Tea Review: Cathedral Quarter Derby

Afternoon Tea Review: Cathedral Quarter Derby

There is a first time for everything. I have never reviewed a restaurant and given it zero on all counts. Until now. I’m passionate about good food.

Restaurant Review: Walkabout, Derby

#TasteOfMasa: Masa Restaurant & Wine Bar, Derby

As any good foodie worth her (sea) salt, I love shouting about good food and great spaces with lovely smiling faces. Which is why I feel I have to write about Masa Restaurant & Bar, Derby again.
