Siam Smiles used to be located in Chinatown but recently (ish) had to move – due to increase in costs. They are now located in Deansgate Mews, the small pathway parallel to Deansgate. This is where B.Eat Street used to be. Its probably not the best location as many people probably don’t know about the … Siam Smiles – Review
Went to GB Pizza Co in Didsbury last night (they also have a location in Margate) and had a delicious pizza. We went on Monday because every main pizza on Monday (in the Didsbury location) is just £5. They also have some other offices: Wednesday is buy one get one half price. And Monday to Thursday, … GB Pizza Co (Great British Pizza Company), Didsbury – Review
Went to watch the latest Mission: Impossible movie the other day. Was looking forward to it especially since it was getting lots of good reviews. For example, 97% on Rotten Tomatoes and 5/5 on Empire magazine. When I left the cinema, my initial thoughts was that it was “good” but not brilliant. I’d built it … Mission: Impossible – Fallout. Rating: 4/5
I was in Liverpool over the weekend and for our evening meal, we went to The Italian Club Fish restaurant. Its been ages since I have been on Bold St (or surrounding streets) in ages – I really liked how they were so many independent food places. For lunch and for a snack, we also … The Italian Fish Club restaurant – review
Went to Nueve in Didsbury last week with friends. Its a Tapas restaurant which we had heard was good. Of course before going, had a look at the menu beforehand – although the menu on their web site was a bit hard to read as the text was small and you could not zoom in. … Nueve – Review
I watched the latest Jurassic Park/World movie (aka Jurassic Park 5 aka Jurassic World 2 aka Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom) about a couple weeks ago and I mostly enjoyed it – as a fun, “popcorn” movie. It has several faults but I still walked out of the cinema thinking to myself that it was a … Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom – review. Rating: 3/5
Went to the restaurant Elnecot about a few months ago with friends and OMG the food is so good. We were supposed to visit just before Christmas but there was an unfortunately mix up in bookings but Elnecot sorted it all out and were very good about it all.

I have been many times – both in its current location, its previous base in Alphabet Brewery) and also when they were less regular (something like once a month) and based, at its original home, at Runaway Brewery. GRUB is now located … Review: GRUB at Mayfield (street food fair)
Roxy Ball Room is a pretty new place on Deansgate which only opened only the end of April this year. They already have a venue in Leeds. First heard about them when they were at the Cocktails in the City event serving cocktails – as soon as we saw it and heard about what the … Roxy Ball Room review
Excellent movie – really enjoyed it! Very entertaining and great fun throughout – no dull moments. Now if you don’t want any spoilers at all, even minor ones, stop reading now. (And I personally hate spoilers and thats one reason I don’t really watch trailers). The end sort of 25 minutes was a bit more … Spider-man: Homecoming – Review. (Spoiler – its brilliant!)
Went to see Baby Driver today. Heard it was really good so I had big expectations. Not always a good thing. Looking online its currently 97% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and 86% Metacritic. (The ratings on both these sites have its issues but its a good indication). I had seen the trailer for Baby Driver … Baby Driver – Review. Entertaining movie!
