The Yellow Door, Lisburn
Posted: 09 November '10 by Niall
Price and quality.. It’s a tricky balancing act. It’s also a pet peeve of mine – more than a few of the restaurants in Belfast get it wrong on both counts. There’s nothing worse than leaving a restaurant underwhelmed by the food and overcharged in the bill. With this in mind Kelly and I decided..

Hot in the city
Posted: 29 October '10 by Niall and Kelly
It’s 6pm on a dark and cold Monday in October. A long week at work looms before us. And I can feel a cold coming on. In serious need of some TLC, Kelly and I decided that a treat was in order so we took ourselves to the bright lights of Belfast’s Lisburn Road. A..

It was Niall’s birthday (not that we ever need an excuse) so I decided to treat him to a meal at James Street South in Belfast. We had previously been invited by Chef Niall McKenna to taste his ‘Great British Menu’ dishes and were blown away with just how good his food was, especially his..

I had been in Dublin visiting Ciara for the weekend and hadn’t seen Niall for a few days so we decided to catch up over a meal and a few drinks. You might remember that we had been to The Barking Dog before and thought that the food was delicious, so decided to go back…

The writing is on the wall.. We love Graffitti!
Posted: 12 April '10 by Kelly
It’s quite difficult to find a place to go for a relaxing late breakfast on a Sunday where the food isn’t dripping in grease, so we were delighted when we discovered Graffitti. Located on the Ormeau Road in Belfast, the restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. We would usually go for breakfast but have also..

Never, EVER again..
Posted: 17 March '10 by Kelly
As it was Mother’s Day on Sunday all the girls in my family decided to go out for a meal and a few drinks. With nowhere booked we decided to give the Chelsea Wine Bar a go. The Chelsea is in a great area, on the Lisburn Road and right next to some lovely boutiques,..

Nando’s, 24 Ormeau Avenue, Belfast
Posted: 04 March '10 by Niall
After walking past the shiny and new Nando’s on Ormeau Avenue almost everyday since it opened I was looking forward to venturing in to what the menu was like. With Kelly incapacitated at the minute, the task fell to fellow Chilli-and-Chocolatier Eamann and myself. The restaurant is a good size, and the decor helps this..
