Dining out

Hey guys!

Ever since I started uni all I've done is eat out in restaurants/pubs and I've found some amazing places which are either well known or not. I thought I'd share some with you and maybe give y'all some ideas of where you could go next time you fancy a nice meal out.

Miller & Carter

STEAK. This is probably the most expensive place on my list, but wow is it worth it if you love steak. I only go here if i need a special treat or if for some reason, i'm rich that day. For the amount you're paying you do get an amazing meal so don't be afraid to pay that extra pound or two. 

Pizza Express

Don't be fooled by the name, Pizza Express also does salads and pasta which are also fab. I've known about how amazing it is there for years, but only recently have i rekindled my love with the place. If i'm in a town centre and i see Pizza Express next to 4 other restaurants i will choose this one. I love that you can have a normal pizza or the extra thin and big ones. I'm quite adventurous with my food and i love basically everything, so each time i will probably try something new. Another thing i love is their take out boxes, if you don't finish all of your food (which i never do if i get pizza) you can take it out and the boxes are in my opinion, gorgeous. I'm all for the stripes. 

Wagamama

Waga is a Japanese restaurant with a casual feel. Every time i go in there i see business people on their lunch breaks or even couples with small children. I absolutely adore this because it caters for everyone! The peach tea is gorgeous and the food is packed full of flavour. I'm a noodle lover so Waga is perfect for me.

Frankie & Bennys

Frankie & Bennys is one of my all time favourite places to eat. You can always count on it if you're not sure what you fancy. The first time i went to there my dad and step-mum told me i was going to have a little brother/sister, it's been a favourite ever since. One of the best parts of F&B is the cocktails. I'm a cocktail kinda gal and they have some of the best ones, like the milkshake inspired one below. (It's a 6 month old picture, hence the hair.. weird)

Barcelona cheesecake (the best cheesecake i've ever had)

Okay.. this isn't a restaurant but this cheesecake was too amazing not to mention on a food post. I went to Barcelona in May with my boyfriend and we ordered room service the first night we got there because we were too tired to go out anywhere. We adore cheesecake and this one was just.. magnificent. There is literally no other word to describe it. I will never find another like it.

Thanks for reading guys and i hope you'll go try out one of these places some time! Until tomorrow.

Love,

Danielle

Quote of the week

Hey guys, happy Monday!

Every Monday i'll be posting a quote which has stood out to me and i hope will stand out to you guys too. This week i have chosen the one below.

I've chosen this quote because for some reason i felt connected with it and i'm sure many of you will feel the same. I spent around an hour searching for what felt like the perfect quote and i found myself coming back to this one. Everyone has a past and everyone has things which they won't like speaking about, to anyone. Until you find the perfect person.

I'm the kind of girl who will look at public displays of affection and cringe, i'll probably also complain to whoever i'm with about how disgusting it is. But realistically i can be a romantic.

The truth is, one day, if you're 14 or 70 i guarantee there is someone out there for you. Someone who will strangely have so much in common with you, it will scare you. Someone whose mind is exactly like yours, what makes them tick makes you tick. All of a sudden things will make sense and you won't be searching for someone any more.

Everyone loves it when their heart skips a beat because of someone else, or when they instantly smile because of a message or the mention of their name. But when you've been damaged so much you think you have 'demons' love seems so petty. Even hope seems petty, but i promise, one day when you're not looking, your 'demons' won't be there any more. If that's because you've managed to move on without someone or with someone, it doesn't matter. You're happy.. sane. Good for you.

I want to give hope to people who have ever felt alone, depressed, unworthy or full of anxiety. Even though most people are ashamed to admit it, everyone has felt like this at one time or another. I don't want people to feel alone in that, i know what it's like and it isn't nice.

Everything happens for a reason and one day your demons won't control you any more. Today will be a good day. Leave a comment with your opinions and as always, until later on!

Love,
Danielle
