La Marina, The Old Custom House, Penarth

On January 15, 2021 by The Plate Licked Clean

‘Goldilocks’ restaurants are rare enough and should be celebrated, so I’m amazed I haven’t written about this place until now. The Old Custom House has long been one of those rare places where you know everything will be ‘just right’. The welcome, the atmosphere, the surroundings, the service, the cooking. Just right. I’ve had many Read More

Milkwood, Pontcanna 2020 revisit

On January 7, 2021 by The Plate Licked Clean

Pandemic on the streets of Canton, pandemic on the streets of Riverside: but comfort food is here to help us through. Milkwood’s change of direction in response to 2020’s ApocaGeddon is not only admirable but has been more marked than most: so let’s celebrate one of our true beacons, because few locally have pirouetted as Read More

The inevitable ‘2020 end of year round up’ post

On December 31, 2020 by The Plate Licked Clean

This won’t be a Top 40 style rundown of favorite dishes in this oddest of years, or even my favourite restaurants. We all know what’s happened and the challenges that poses for restaurants and the people who work in them, so let’s skip to the good stuff. Instead, let’s highlight some good local food you Read More

Bleecker At Home: the Bleecker Burger DIY kit

On August 16, 2020 by The Plate Licked Clean

For many, Bleecker is the burger. A tiny stall tucked away in the furthest corner of Street Feast on a muggy Saturday evening, not long after they started up: but sometimes you just know, don’t you? From that first bite. You know. Dalston was no fluke: I loved them on the South Bank too, and Read More

Andy ‘Low’n’Slow’ Stubbs: home delivery BBQ

On July 26, 2020 by The Plate Licked Clean

It’s not without its advantages, this having to cook at home thing. No parking fees, no reservations, no having to don my branded blogger mankini (coming soon to the inevitable merch store) or my influencer salopettes for this. Just drag my carcass into the kitchen for a bit, muck about with someone else having done Read More

Uisce by Heaney’s, Cardiff- July 2020 reopening

On July 23, 2020 by The Plate Licked Clean

Uisce, small but perfectly formed, has always impressed. If you like handles like ‘best’ or ‘elite’ then this sits comfortably within that group, that small coterie of Cardiff places which attract unanimous high praise and loyalty. I’m no exception: I loved it the minute I tried it. This, though, is their first night’s reopening, and Read More
