My friends and I wanted to go somewhere special, while at the same time supporting a local business. For us, there was no better...
During these COVID times, it can be easy to get into the habit of rolling to the same pub or restaurant in a variation of your loungewear. So when I was invited to sample the bottomless brunch (£30pp) at the Ye Olde Bell Hotel, I was very excited to have an excuse to doll up and go somewhere a bit different...
Hot sauce can be an uncomfortable condiment to eat. I like a bit of spice, but the hot stuff generally doesn’t bring me much joy. However, D7 Sauce’s Scarlett’s Hot Sauce, with its bright packaging and promises of flavour made me want to give it a bash.

And thankfully the tongue-tingling subsided just before we were set to begin...

We chat to the co-owners, husband and wife duo Cheryl and Rory Stretton, to find out all about it…
Doughnuts. Just that one word alone can make you salivate. But sometimes when you sink your teeth into one, it doesn’t taste as good as it looks. Dry. Chewy. Not good stuff. The boys at Happy Dough Lucky – Sach, Lewis and TK – are aiming to change all that. They’ve spent a load of time perfecting their recipes and flavours, so their brand new vegan doughnuts are as delicious as can be. We chat to Sach Nijran about their upcoming launch and why you should give their bad boys a shot…

Finding something unusual to do in Nottingham city centre can sometimes be difficult. But if your tummy is grumbling and your boredom is tumbling, vegan boardgame cafe The Dice Cup could sort you out...
It might appear like it’s lacking a soul, but I think it’s fair to say that one of the best things about the Vic Centre is the recent revamp of the ad-hoc food court occupying what I like to call the “big Tesco end.”
After all, the way to the heart is through the stomach...
