I've enjoyed reading through this thread and agree with many of the Bristol recommendations. Have absolutely loved our meals at Pasta Ripiena, Root, Box E, Adelina Yard, Wilson's, Bulrush, Marmo and Cor. Some were visited following recommendations on this thread so thank you! I would also add Chido Wey as a little gem if you get a table! 

 

This Friday, we're out into Bath for the night so am looking for recommendations. I lived in Bath for a few years but have always been really underwhelmed with the restaurants. That may be because there is so much on offer in Bristol though?! I've eaten at the Olive Tree previously and we all felt that we had had better meals at non Michelin star restaurants in Bristol. Anyway, any recommendations would be appreciated! 

 

 

Few places have popped up in bath recently, see a few below , having lived in Bristol and bath , bath is shockingly behind Bristol in terms of quality and choice but is slowly upping its game 

Hudson's steakhouse, not as good as pasture but kept to its roots and has never changed and will never let you down 

Menu Gordon Jones - similar to olive tree but much less refined and Gordon Jones is a loon! You will prob struggle to get in now though 

jars meze - about as traditional Greek place as you will find, all family run and owned 

Pinxto - very good tapas

honourable mention for antica, noyas kitchen and comptoir & cuisine

Shearer in his day? 

Hasn't Kane got previous Beef with Levy mucking him around last summer? 

Shearer won a premier league

I've been asking this question to mates for months and genuinely can't find anyone near kanes level who never won a trophy 

Be disappointed in Kane if he doesn't go 

he is in real danger of being the best player ever to never win anything, I can't think of anyone even remotely close to his level who hasn't won a trophy 

Christ he really has been terribly advised hasn't he

Still 88 left, surprised not sold out given only 1800, Rovers would have sold out weeks and weeks ago

Have to say it is very surprising we haven't sold out

Very reasonable still, given it's high quality fare https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:EU:92f1e2b2-789c-437c-883e-223be373fca8

 

Would tend to agree, obviously it's not the cheapest but you really are getting what you pay for

On a better note. Via Jerry.

Dunno whether there was a technical glitch or what.

Very odd that's been asked and suddenly tickets are available 

What happened to this?

gone from what looked like a really busy block last season to non existent (from what I could see) on Saturday?

Went to pasture last Monday, absolutely packed 

food was absolutely different class fair play to them they've got it sussed

2-0 down at home in their first league, made a double sub after 20 mins. Oh Lee

He ain't lasting long this season is he 

Anyone else's ticket in wallet still showing as Preston?

Yep for the 1st game of the season it was a shocking atmosphere. 

But it's always the case these days for the opening game. I think flag day being on the opening day spoils the atmosphere. By the time people get to the ground they've already been on the piss all day and are done in. Used up all their energy at flag day.

Also, people are catching up and just generally having a chat 

Really hope weather holds off or at least stops raining abit before 1pm!

What a t-shirt is it available in black?

Available in a few different colours if your on about the dry blackthorn one and black is one of those colours!

Nige asked about Tomas a couple of times in todays presser “If the doors open then it’s very draughty”. Stated not moving in where they were offer wise, hadn’t heard from TK personally for a number of weeks and he considers him gone but doesn’t rule out the prospect of him coming back.

At this point you do have to wonder what TK is holding out for/hoping for as it's clearly not been that forthcoming or he would have a club by now 

Apologies if I've missed this but the ticket I have seemingly has no bar code or anything, just a red ticket with name on, is this the same for everyone else?

All I will say is that I was part of a meeting with our CEO last Friday and know that the vast majority of what you have written is wrong 

Perhaps you should let us know how you disagree? 

Did you discuss the terrible new robin out of interest? 
ignore, just seen you've answered above 

Honestly, what was the point in the new badge a few years back which went down fairly well to then plaster that absolute monstrosity over everything and just casually not tell anyone 

What on earth is going on with the badge here 

Just read that it's a wind up.... 

all very odd!!!

Has anyone just watched gregg Wallace on channel 4?

one of the most disturbing programs I've ever seen 

Just on pasta loco it's a travesty it has closed

reading between the lines from the statement would appear they have had nothing but issues since they opened up there

I posted in another thread about their chairman passing away. They are going to put home fans in both tiers of away end (normally 100% away) due to demand for the memorial. 

Source: @JerrySLO @ living right by their pub (taken now Thursday at 2320)

That could be interesting....I have no doubt our fans will respect the minutes silence/applause but once that's over who knows how it will go 

Does @Olé have any idea on the thinking behind this as he lives in the area?

Does seem odd
