📍 Cantley C**k, Norwich | The ultimate Sunday Roast to cure the renovation burnout.

After another brutal week of painting, assembling furniture, and endless unpacking at the new place, we officially hit a wall. Living just five minutes down the road now, we decided it was time to drop the tools and head to the Cantley C**k. We have heard massive things about this local spot, and they delivered proper, home-cooked, heavy-hitting pub food exactly when we needed it most. Look at the sheer size of the Yorkshire puddings they are serving up here.

Here is exactly what we used to refuel:
The Roasts: We grabbed a pork roast and a turkey roast. Both came piled high with fresh, tender meat, massive portions of veg, pigs in blankets, and proper thick gravy. 🍖
The Upgrade: We obviously had to get a side of their creamy cauliflower cheese to share in the middle of the table. 🧀

The Desserts: A quick look across the table confirmed it would be rude to skip pudding. Emma ordered the honeycomb sundae loaded with fresh ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce. I took down an old-school banana split completely buried in cream, wafers, and sprinkles. 🍨

We left well and truly stuffed. This is exactly the kind of unpretentious, high-quality local pub you want on your doorstep. We will be returning very soon to tackle the rest of the menu.

📍 Moulton Nurseries, Norfolk | The ultimate mid-renovation breakfast pit stop.

We are currently buried under a mountain of cardboard boxes, paint tins, and endless unpacking. When you are knee-deep in renovations, you need proper fuel to keep going. We took a quick break from the chaos and discovered an absolute gem just five minutes down the road in Halvergate.

Swipe across to see exactly why The Greenhouse Coffee Shop at Moulton Nurseries is the kind of local spot you want on your doorstep. ☕ The decor is brilliant, the staff make you feel instantly welcome, and they sell an incredible range of plants and cookware, but we really need to talk about the food.

We both ordered the hearty Greenhouse Breakfast, and it completely delivered. Here is the exact plate breakdown:
Proper thick-cut smoky bacon and high-quality butcher’s sausages. 🥓
Perfectly fried eggs with a golden yolk.
Roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, and a heavy portion of baked beans.

Thick slabs of buttered bloomer toast to mop it all up. 🍞
You cannot leave a place like this without checking out the baked goods. They have massive homemade cakes on the counter, so we obviously grabbed a huge slice of carrot cake and a cappuccino before heading back to the paint rollers. 🍰 If you are anywhere near Acle or Norwich, you need to get this spot on your radar immediately.

Save this post for your next Norfolk weekend breakfast run.

📍 JoJo's Kitchen and Bar, Lowestoft | The ultimate Southern Soul BBQ order breakdown.

💾 Save this post for your next trip to Suffolk.

When it comes to celebrating Emma’s birthday, sometimes the best plans are the ones that aren't made! After a mooch around drive we ended up at JoJo's Kitchen and Bar, just a stones throw from the South Pier and the food was bloody fantastic. As people who spend a lot of time tending to grills at home, we know good BBQ when we taste it, and this spot delivered. Here is exactly what we had. 🥩

The Southern Soul Platter
This platter comes loaded with BBQ brisket burnt ends that completely melt apart in your mouth and have a lovely smoky taste, incredibly soft pulled pork that was on point, a side salad (to pretend to be healthy), a heavy pot of beef-dripping gravy, and cheddar and jalapeno cornbread topped with sweet honey butter.

Upgraded Loaded Fries
Normally, the platter comes with standard fries, but we upgraded our tray to feature the sticky Louisiana chicken loaded fries, heavily stacked with sweet chilli, mozzarella, and cheddar. 🍟

Extra Sides
Because doing things by halves is not our style, we ordered two extra sides to finish the table: a fresh homemade coleslaw to cut through the rich meat, and a plate of crispy hot honey chicken wings that perfectly balance sweet and heat. 🍗

If you are anywhere near this part of the coast, you need to visit and try for yourself. They do regular deals on their burgers on a Thursday and have won multiple awards.

📍 The Box Tree
📌 Hotel Ocean - Great Yarmouth
Today we had a lovely little lunch at The Box Tree Bistro which is just on the sea front of Great Yarmouth.

Their summer menu is all locally sourced and fresh produce, which is lovely, they do these amazing flat breads, one had a zesty chutney and chargrilled steak🥩, one with yogurt and chicken breasts,🍗, these big old prawns and perfectly grilled Halloumi. The flatbreads are under £14 each which is brilliant value.

Can't beat fresh well cooked food, a good view overlooking the Great Yarmouth sea front and a nice bottle of w**e as well 🍷this place has lovely service so well worth checking out if you are in the area.

The Kick Your Eggs Need 🍳🔥

How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine with a serious kick.

We leveled up these poached eggs with two different hits from Original G Sauce, and the flavor split is wild:

Verde Vibes🌿: Packed with fresh jalapeño, tangy lime, cilantro, and ginger for a bright, zesty punch.

Mangoes Mental🥭: A lethal combo of sweet mango and scotch bonnet peppers for that sweet, creeping heat.

Finished the whole plate with sea salt, cracked black pepper, dried herbs, and a massive handful of crispy onions for that essential crunch.

The poll is live on this post right now—are you going Green or Purple? Let me know in the vote.
