🇮🇹 Nothing beats a night with Mario Biondi! @mario 🇮🇹 Nothing beats a night with Mario Biondi! @mariobiondiofficial 🎤✨ 

Tonight was my 4th time seeing him live, and he never misses. I first discovered his music on the radio years ago while I was in Florence, and enjoyed his music ever since. 

Saint Luke’s in Glasgow was the perfect setting. Here are a few clips from the show, seriously, if you get the chance to see him, GO! He is incredible. 🇮🇹🎶

Authentic Greek & Italian vibes have officially a Authentic Greek & Italian  vibes have officially arrived in Wishaw!

I was recently invited to check out the brand new @mediterraneankitchen.wishaw during their opening week, and I’m still dreaming about this wrap! From the moment you walk in, the shop’s vibrant Mediterranean color scheme sets the perfect mood for what’s to come.

I couldn’t resist ordering the Mixed Chicken + Pork Gyro Wrap (£8.00). It had been way too long since I enjoyed a proper gyro, not since my last trip to Greece, so I had high expectations.

Let me tell you: they absolutely delivered.

When I opened the takeaway, I was seriously impressed. It was packed to the brim, all tucked into a warm, soft pita.

The aroma was incredible, and the flavour did not disappoint. Pairing the chicken and pork together was the perfect choice; every bite was packed with that authentic, savory goodness you crave.

If you’re on the hunt for a top-quality gyro that transports you straight to the Mediterranean, this is your new go-to spot. I promise you won’t be disappointed! 

Full blog review soon

Celebrating a Milestone with Great Flavours I r Celebrating a Milestone with Great Flavours 
 
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Saravanaa Bhavan in Glasgow @saravanaabhavanglasgow for the first time to celebrate a friend’s daughter’s 18th birthday. It was a wonderful occasion, and the meal certainly added to the festive spirit of the evening. 
 
One of the standout dishes was the Paneer Butter Cheese Masala (special). The presentation was excellent, where the dish is served on a sleek, partitioned metal tray that makes for a great dining experience. The accompanying sides perfectly complemented the main dish, providing a nice balance of textures and flavours. 
 
The Paneer Butter Cheese Masala itself was delicious, rich, creamy, and flavorful, hitting exactly the right notes for a special celebration. Everything felt fresh, and the attention to detail in how the food was presented really stood out, making the birthday meal feel truly special. 
 
If you’re looking for a vibrant place in Glasgow to celebrate or just enjoy some fantastic vegetarian Indian cuisine, I would highly recommend giving them a try. 
 
It was a memorable first visit, and I’m already looking forward to going back! 
 
Have you been to Saravanaa Bhavan before, or are you planning to visit for a specific occasion soon?

It had been a while since I last visited @dockyard It had been a while since I last visited @dockyardsocial, so when I found myself in the area, I knew I had to pop in, and I’m so glad I did!

The vibe was buzzing, but the real star of the show was my food choice for the day: 

@smashed_gla. I went in craving a burger, and their menu made it impossible to choose just one, but eventually, I landed on the "Scotland The Brave" and it did not disappoint.

🍔 Scotland The Brave (£11.00): 2x patties, 2x cheese, Stornoway black pudding, caramelised onions, truffle mayo, and bun.

As soon as I unwrapped it, the smell alone had me hooked. The patties were cooked to perfection,tender and juicy, but the addition of that savoury Stornoway black pudding paired with the subtle hint of truffle mayo? Absolute genius. It was easily one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time; every mouthful was a total treat.

I also grabbed a side of chips, which were perfectly salted and beautifully crisp. Honestly, this meal completely made my day! If you’re heading down to Dockyard Social soon, you need to check these guys out. Highly recommended!

Full blog review soon!

Solid State IPA by @verdantbrewery I’ve been a ma Solid State IPA by @verdantbrewery

I’ve been a massive fan of Verdant’s beers for a while now (they rarely, if ever, miss), so the second I spotted Solid State on the shelves, you already know it was an instant buy. I had to try it.

Soooo Good!!!. It pours that classic, beautiful, hazy yellow and hits you with a massive wave of tropical fruit and citrus zest aroma the second you crack the can.

it’s got that signature soft, creamy mouthfeel Verdant does best. Think juicy mango and grapefruit upfront, balanced out perfectly by a clean bitterness on the finish. It’s incredibly well-crafted and dangerously drinkable.

Verdant continues their winning streak in my book. 4.5/5

Have you managed to track this one down yet? What’s your go-to Verdant brew? Drop it below! 👇

Back in beautiful Tobermory! 🌈 Two years after my Back in beautiful Tobermory! 🌈 Two years after my first visit, I finally made it back to the Isle of Mull’s most iconic colorful harbor town.

Here is a quick breakdown of my stay:

🛏️ The Room: I opted for a family room just to secure that incredible harbor view, and waking up to it was absolute magic! The decor has a lovely, traditional vibe and came with fresh towels and comfy robes. The only downside was the sofa bed, which definitely needed a bit of TLC.

🚿 The Bathroom: A pleasant, ultra-modern, and spotless surprise! A small heads-up for my fellow tall travelers though, being 6'1" with an angled ceiling meant some tactical maneuvering to get in and out of the shower. But once inside? The water warmed up instantly and the pressure was excellent!

🍳 Breakfast: Downstairs is a great buffet setup. Pro tip: Book a time slot early so you can snag a window seat with a view! They have a great selection of hot items (including vegan options), pastries, and cereals. It definitely hit the spot before my long drive home.

🍷 The Vibe: It was so wonderful to be back exploring the local shops and soaking up the atmosphere. I even made sure to pop into the legendary Mishnish Bar for a wee drink before heading out.

Despite a couple of minor room quirks, the view and the hospitality completely won me over!

Full blog review very soon!

On my way home from the Isle of Mull, I found out On my way home from the Isle of Mull, I found out my booked ferry was delayed. Worried it might get cancelled altogether, I decided to pivot and plan an alternative route.

I am so glad I did, because otherwise, I never would have stumbled upon this absolute hidden gem: The Coal Shed Cafe (@the_coal_shed_cafe)

When I walked in, a few things on the wall menu caught my eye, but once I reached the counter and spotted the Ardtornish Venison & Italian Herb Sausage Rolls (£4.50), I knew exactly what I was getting. Honestly? I now wish I’d bought two, but at the time, I was only looking for a light lunch!

The second I sat down, the incredible aroma hit me. From the very first bite, the flavour was superb. It easily beats any sausage roll I’ve ever had (and trust me, I’ve tried a lot!). It was perfectly cooked, letting you taste every individual element. The combination of the rich venison and the Italian herbs was just outstanding!!!!

If you’re ever in the area, or even if you just fancy a wee drive out, I cannot recommend this place enough!

Full blog review soon!

Had to visit @smashed_gla at @dockyardsocial and i Had to visit @smashed_gla at @dockyardsocial and it did not disappoint! 🍔🔥

The “Scotland the Brave” burger is a game changer: 2x patties, double cheese, and Stornoway black pudding with truffle mayo? Absolute perfection. 🤤

Paired with crispy salted chips and a refreshing Zero Zombi mocktail. This was easily one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time. 10/10 recommend.
