Koi (No Yokan), Windsor Place, Cardiff: review
On November 12, 2022 by The Plate Licked CleanLet me tell you a tale of fried chicken. I was in a good mood, the sort when someone stops you in Queen Street to tell you your hair looks good. And if it soon becomes obvious they’re trying to get me to sign up to something, you still have to take the wins where

Salkaara, Wellfield Road, Cardiff: review
On November 2, 2022 by The Plate Licked CleanThis, the former New Himalaya, was where you’d come for your Friday night curry. You might have fond memories of their Sunday evening buffet, all you could eat for £6 or thereabouts. But these days, you come here to Salkaara for some of the best Indian cooking in Cardiff.

On September 18, 2022 by The Plate Licked CleanOpen for just over a month as I write this, Clare Road’s Al-Madina is another unadorned, uncomplicated Grangetown find. It’s not just the plastic sheet-covered tables and it-would-be-an-upgrade-to-call-it-bare- bones decor: there’s no social media, no Google listing yet, no invitation evenings with prescribed hashtags and 13 identical captions. How utterly refreshing. The bilingual menu- Arabic

Haraf East African and Mediterranean, Grangetown: review
On September 5, 2022 by The Plate Licked CleanThe cutlery at Harafs doesn’t have elegant lines and reassuring weight: it’s a jumble of odds and sods in a canteen style plastic tray. There’s no written menu either, and you’ll probably end up eating with your fingers- there’s a basin by the kitchen if that bothers you- and drinking your soup straight from the
