we recently visited shark tail sushi on saturday before bournemouth vs arsenal.

we'd traveled down and struggled to find places to eat around the ground - but this restaurant was nice and we stayed there for beers post sushi.

we got fries, spring rolls, edamame, avo rolls and prawn maki rolls.

i've always really loved the little row of restaurants that sacre ceour is on! i recently went down on a friday eve and sat inside - cosy place.

i had onion soup to start - also ordered some bread and butter (which it doesn't come with annoyingly). followed up by steak frites with peppercorn sauce! lovely, lovely food. nice spot for friday dinenr and would like to come back and try the duck

on a recent trip to venice I had my first experience of a cicchetto bar and I loved it.

a little squeezed for space but a cool atmosphere. we spent about 30 or so mins here and had about 10 cicchetto between us, two aperols each and polpetti.

my favourite was the mortadella + the meat polpette. i was a little scared of the baby octapous one...

i loved how you could sit / stand by the bar and just continuously order, especially for the incredibly reasonable prices. deffo the highlight of venice for me and a must try on any visit.

this bar is CASH only which threw us off. i had to do a little hunt for a cash machine whilst my partner stayed behind
