Pizza and Pasta Galore

Again it's been a little while since I posted.

We had a friend up in January and proceeded to eat at the M&S Cafe down in the Union Square Branch, Rishis, Three Lums and the Subway in Union Square - Not bad for a two day visit.  Overall good food and good company.

February was a quiet month.  Think we went to the Filling Station and that was about it.  Tried their 2 for a £10 menu.  It was okay but it's a very limited choice.  Went to Pizza Express on Union Street at the end of the month.  It was cold and the service was slow - staff seemed very disorganised.  We where sharing a pizza and they forgot the plates - had the extra thin base which was a disappointment as the pizza got cold very quickly.

March has been a bit busier.  We did go to ASK Italian with my Mum and Dad, the weekend I got my car.  And we've now tried both Pizza Express's in Aberdeen, as we went to the Belmont Branch this weekend and had a much better meal in a very nice and well staffed restaurant.

Also hit both the international market and the farmers market on Saturday.  Surprisingly busy considering the weather was much colder than the week before.  Managed to get some really nice vegetables and belts with buckles.  Picked up the P&J restaurant guide and think there is only one place mentioned in it I actually want to go to and I few I may consider - Cock and Bull, Jewel in the Crown, La Lombarda and Pavarotti's.  Places that I have been recommended recently include Amicus Apple.  Little bit pricey but apparently very nice, plus they seem to do deals every now and then.

New things since the new year

It's been far to busy for me to have time to post I'm afraid. Having two jobs is never fun but can be rewarding. SO I'll go through things as best I can seen as its now July. The tight budget we've been on hasn't helped so meals out where few and far between at the beginning of this year.

We did get out for our anniversay in March - going to Archie Simpsons in Aberdeen then onto Manzils.

During the Easter holidays a friend took me to Rishis - an we ordered some of the most amazing authentic food I've ever tasted, and my friend is an amazing cook of traditional India food!

Since my move back to Seaton I have to admit I've been enjoying good pub grub at the Brig O' Don. The staff are really friendly and the food is good - and they have kopparberg which is fine Swedish pear cider (with lots of different flavours). In fact Archie's and The Tollbooth in Ellon both stock it too - Strawberry and Lime is my current favourite. Which I've been frequenting with colleagues every once and a while.

Anyway finger crossed I might get into some more time to eat, drink and be merry. Diet and exercise permitting....of course
