Food on the brain…

Thursday, 19 July 2012

To say I ate a lot while I was on holiday would be a gross under-exaggeration. What is it about being on holiday that makes you think it’s ok to follow a very large breakfast, lunch and supper with dessert? Let’s just say that I left the Maldives with a little more than a tan! As is always the way with a week followed by good food, it remains on mind every waking moment and with hundreds of new beautiful restaurants opening up all over the country, I am spoilt for choice! Il Pirata is a little further afield in Belfast but I think it might just be worth the trip! You know I am a sucker for distressed hardwood floors, industrial light fittings and subway tiles.

  1. That looks like my kind of restaurant - very cool. And I wouldn't worry about your holiday eating - in all the photos I've seen of you on your blog, you look lovely and slim, you can afford to have the odd dessert :) x

  7. Not bad, I like the industrial feel too. Kind of "communal"
