Tried to make my own Creme Eggs! Okay, so the filling went wrong - it's far too runny and a bit lumpy! 😂 Still, not bad for a complete amateur on the first attempt. #CremeEggs #Cadbury #DairyMilk #EasterBaking… instagram.com/p/B_NckuFgrCC/…

Easter Saturday breakfast and there was only one option. The biggest, stickiest, tastiest hot cross bun I've ever had. Ordered yesterday from Roma alongside the bread and boy was this special. Naturally, it had to… instagram.com/p/B-1rwr0g5kY/…

Easter Weekend would normally be a succession of eating out from start to finish. Obviously not this year, but we've still stayed traditional and gone for fish, with sweet potato mash, carrots and chargrilled… instagram.com/p/B-z0pXKgVBm/…

This stuff is absolutely delicious! @Chlobobeard Hot Cross Bun Fudge. Soft, creamy fudge full of dried fruits and spices. It tastes exactly like a hot cross bun! Really impressed. A lovely sweet treat, getting me… instagram.com/p/B-ppUZSA9uk/…

This is another of my favourite homemade pasta creations: red pesto with chorizo and mushrooms (because I like mushrooms in anything and everything). Totally delicious. instagram.com/p/B-m7LQ_A5WM/…

#FoodieFlashback to much happier times. This day last year I had this gorgeous lunch @RBG_Manchester. It was my first ever Steak Diane!

It was a whole two years ago that I last tucked into these spectacular Cheeseburger Spring Rolls at @SolitaNQ. Sadly, I can no longer get my fix of these in Prestwich. #FoodieThrowback

Powering through my morning with one of these new Special K Protein bars. I'm not eating it for the protein, I'm eating it purely because it's delicious! Blackcurrant and Pumpkin Seed flavour. Full of oats, seeds… instagram.com/p/B9oUmbqgmTt/…

Here's another foodie flashback for #NationalPieWeek. It was another scrumptious Cheese and Onion Pie from @alberts_worsley. This one came with the additional side of seasonal roasted root vegetables, which really added to the dish. Gorgeous thick cut chips too.

It's #NationalPieWeek. What's your favourite? I think I'd have to go for Cheese and Onion. This was a particularly good one from Annie's, Manchester.

Folk is an independent café, bar and restaurant with delicious food and a family-friendly, chilled out vibe. Read my latest review here: mgfoodforthought.blogspot.com/2020/03/folk.h… @FolkPrestwich #FoodForThought #MGFoodie #FoodBlog

Three years ago, I ate at @one88kitchen for the first time. It'd had only just opened its doors. It immediately became one of my favourite local eateries and I've since enjoyed many delicious lunches there. #One88 #FoodForThought #MGFoodie

Sunday Lunch at @NuttersOfficial. An average roast dinner, appalling service and disinterested staff made for a thoroughly disappointing experience. Read my latest review here: mgfoodforthought.blogspot.com/2020/02/sunday… #FoodForThought #MGFoodie

Thoroughly disappointing Sunday Lunch at @NuttersOfficial yesterday. The food may have been lovely but the appalling service ruined the whole experience. Full review coming soon. @nutsfood

Re-visited one of my favourite childhood restaurants last Friday and I rekindled my affection for the place. My review of @TGIFridaysUK, Prestwich is now online: mgfoodforthought.blogspot.com/2020/01/tgi-fr… #FoodForThought #MGFoodie #FoodBlog
