Piccalilli Nottingham Review. Candlelit Comfort in a Hidden Courtyard

heylollyNovember 19, 2025November 16, 2025

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.

Scallops are high-maintenance only if you let them Scallops are high-maintenance only if you let them be. Buy them properly, get the pan hot, add more butter than feels sensible and don’t wander off! 

They want colour, and lots of attention.

A soft cauliflower purée underneath, lemon over the top, scattering of fresh herbs, and suddenly dinner feels like you should be in a restaurant!

A stack made in lemon heaven 🍋🫐 Cloud-soft lemon A stack made in lemon heaven 🍋🫐

Cloud-soft lemon ricotta pancakes with glossy blueberry compote, fresh lemon zest and a little Sunday morning ceremony.

The ricotta keeps them soft, the whipped egg whites give them lift, and the blueberry compote does the dramatic spilling-down-the-stack bit beautifully.

Recipe is now on the site — link in bio.

🌮 Mexican Breakfast Tacos 🌮 Eggs. Avocado. Salsa. 🌮 Mexican Breakfast Tacos 🌮

Eggs. Avocado. Salsa. Lime. Coffee somewhere nearby. When I tell you this is what weekend brunch is all about… believe me, my friend.

Some recipes have a season. These definitely do not.

I made these last year, fully expecting them to have their moment and fade away. Instead they’ve become one of those recipes I return to again and again - and everyone seems to demolish without hesitation 

Still making them. Still ordering extra limes. 🍋‍🟩
