Restaurants, Cafes, Coffee Bars

Felt very posh enjoying a Business Man's Lunch on occasions. I believe it was well under 10/- for a 2 course meal.

Hello, Yesterday, I did enjoyed this plated up salad at Leonardo in Nuneaton. There is a story to this. I had visited the Lounge restaurant in Nuneaton, for a late lunch, but for the second time, the item that I wanted, they hadn't got. A few weeks ago when that happened, I did have an alternative, but yesterday I declined the more expensive alternative & decided to go to Leonardo. The lounge restaurant sits at a higher meal price than contemporary restaurants, so I wonder if there is a deliberate lower cost meal avoidance going on. That isn't an accusation, as much as a thought. Once bitten, twice shy. No such malarkey at Leonardo. The salad wasn't a mammoth meal. It was their basic ham salad costing £7.50. It was fresh, crisp & beautifully presented. My pot of tea took the cost to less than £10. I needed a nice salad after my extravaganza with burgers through the week. Top marks for that. Brill, brill & brill.

Hello, I'm sad to report that today I learnt that Masons cafe in Nuneaton, Coventry St. has closed for the last time. It closed a bit ago. Folk these days aren't drawn to liver & onions or cottage pie, which in winter was my delight. The last time that I was in Masons, it was looking tired, but it enjoyed a good run, starting before the millennium.
