The South Kitchen, Albany Road, Cardiff: Yemeni restaurant review

On April 26, 2025 by The Plate Licked Clean

‘Hello, nice to see you today…Lamb or chicken?’ Welcome to The South Kitchen, and the smallest menu in Cardiff. You don’t pick your happy place. Your happy place picks you: and although The South Kitchen has very recently moved to Albany Road, it feels like business as usual. Sure, it looks very different in here, Read More

The Old Moat House Kidwelly/Cydweli: restaurant review

On February 9, 2025 by The Plate Licked Clean

The Old Moathouse in Kidwelly is one of the oldest surviving houses within the medieval walled town. It could, with a little license, be described as standing in the shadow of the Castle: it certainly has enviable views of those 13th century walls. That Castle was, famously, the setting for the opening scene of Monty Read More

Mesen, Rhiwbina, Cardiff: review

On September 25, 2023 by The Plate Licked Clean

I first ate at Mesen in mid-June this year, a few weeks before it opened, in one of those sessions you’re (well, I’m) invited in to try the menu and give some pre-launch feedback. It’s not always as much fun as it sounds: try telling the owner and chef- usually, sitting opposite as you eat- Read More

Mini Kitchen , Cathays, Cardiff: Chinese restaurant review

On August 28, 2023 by The Plate Licked Clean

Google has Cathays’ Mini Kitchen as part of Fortune House a couple of doors away. Ignore that: it isn’t, and the menu is a world away from chicken balls, pork chow mein and special fried rice topped with scarlet-sauced sliced meat: Chinese food through a British filter. This is something else altogether. Much of the Read More

Bar 44 Cardiff/Penarth: set lunch menu review

On July 12, 2023 by The Plate Licked Clean

Perhaps this is less a review than a reminder. After all, Bar 44’s reputation is increasingly well known across Britain, let alone Cardiff, so unless you’ve been living in a bunker (or Bridgend) you probably already know. We are here for the new lunch deal, which runs on Thursday and Friday in Westgate St, and Read More

Poca, Pontcanna, Cardiff: review

On July 9, 2023 by The Plate Licked Clean

I once stood in a car park waiting for friends from Bristol to join me at The Humble Onion. On a dark mizzly Thursday night, I watched them walk past the turn a couple of times.  It was an apt image for Antonio Simone’s cooking: simultaneously good enough to merit the best part of a Read More
