not a Blonde joke

Blonde is the sister restaurant of Beluga and Sevruga-both have halfprice sushi on weekday evenings-and part of the Caviar family. Blonde is in a beautiful old house in lower gardens, and get this-until the end of august, EVERYTHING on the menu is halfprice! Tonight one hundred paid for bottled water, reserve bottle of white wine, amise bouche of pea soup, pate and bread platter, dukkah-infused duck main and an amazing pudding - including tip :) admittedly a lot of that was shared between seven girls but still left with a full belly and a happy heart.

Homely Goodness!

Hoorah the Kitchen! A lovely home-lunch, away from home, gobbled up while grazing elbows with friends and strangers alike. Delish and some really different salads at r40 for a really full plate, plus the menu changes daily. Try their famous love sarms, (even better than those at their biscuit mill stall), magical for brightening the worst of days. The Kitchen is making weekdays wonderful from Sir Lowry road, Woodstock with a warm vibe and beautifully friendly staff. They also caters for events and judging from the library of recipe books stuffed into the already attractively full Kitchen, these ladies can make most anything you’d imagine.
