Think this is the 5th time I've had mango salad in 9 days!!!

This time instead of my own recipe unused one I saw on IG which was very similar to mine but instead they chopped and caramelised palm sugar in a pan with lime juice and fish sauce.
Honestly... Didn't like it, it had a strong sweet taste, when I added more fish sauce and lime juice to balance it all out it made the vegetables in my salad a little *sweet*

Sticky rice... Took my time, soaked it in boiling water twice over a 30 min soak. Then i steamed it dry without added water. Wrapped in clingfilm ready to serve.

The grilled pork, is pork fillet sliced thickly marinaded in my pork jerky recipe over night and grilled.

Have you ever been to that one place you want to shout about on the top of your lungs?
Well this is that place!
Randomly came up on Google maps.
It's not exactly a restaurant, you enter the shop.and it's like a fish display.
You tell them what you want and go upstairs to find a table.
There is no service.
We got a medium seabream to share between the two of us.
It came with two rice, salad and a nan bread.
Cooked to perfection, slight moist and a crispy scaled skin
With two drink I believe he said £17 😳😳😳
The menu is basic and the price is written on the board
They have carp, seabream, seabass and salmon which varied between £15-25
Skewer of prawns with rice and salad I think £10(?)
When we went to pay the young lad got the card machines out and I said cash. He was shocked I said cash. He was very friendly and asked if it was our first visit and we said yes, he made small talk and thanked us for coming and appreciating their food.

This was an absolutely fantastic find!!!
And certainly one to shout about and share with you.
So if you want small businesses to survive and keep their prices low please pay cash.

Off topic post

As you know there's a heat wave in England.
Which means BBQ!
Not wanting to cook in the direct Ray's of the sun. Other half said we'll do BBQ in the evening.
But I was hungry!
I decided if I get a golf style umbrella that would help.
So off I go in search of a golf umbrella.
I popped into Home Bargains for something and spotted this beach
I examined it, it stood about 6 foot high, the pole came in two part, the pole was a spear and it had a carry bag.
I thought this would be great for out all fresco dining.
With that I bought it and took it home .
I stabbed it into a heavy plant pot and it was the best thing ever!!!

I absolutely recommend this beach parasol and that is why I am posting to share with you!!!

Best of all if it breaks it was only £4.99

Wasnt happy with my mango salad today.
I forgot to buy mint and I didn't have lime, but you know when you want to eat something and you make do...
That aside, it was still refreshing on a hot day like today

Very big let down
Lumb lane sweet centre
Flavour was bland and just a big disorient having driven 50 minutes just to eat here

Service was on the slow side despite it not being busy
Maybe a one off
Will be back
