heylollyJanuary 18, 2026December 30, 2025

A Friday night review of COYA City, covering the evening bottomless brunch and three-course dinner. Expect high energy, generous pours and a lively atmosphere with food that shows promise but leans more towards style than substance. A fun night out, as long as you know what you’re booking.

This Piccalilli Nottingham review covers a softly lit dining room tucked off the city centre, plates of treacle-baked ham, bright, sharp fish and a chocolate, coffee and whisky sponge that almost finished me off. Warm service, understated elegance and food I’d happily eat again.

Pici Nottingham Review. Mini Pasta Plates That Are Authentically Delicious!

heylollyUpdated on October 30, 2025October 29, 2025

This Pici Nottingham review finds a room built for appetite: generous “mini” plates, hot-from-the-pass pacing, and staff who keep things human. Consequently, it’s the kind of place where “one more plate?” feels inevitable and yes, I’m already plotting a return.

Zest decision I made all week 🍋 Preserved lemons, Zest decision I made all week 🍋

Preserved lemons, butter, pasta water, and a roasted walnut pesto you'll want to drag through every single bite. This one comes together fast and tastes like you tried way harder than you did.
