With everyone leading busy lives, it’s not surprising that each year more people are choosing to eat out on a regular basis.
For many it gives the opportunity for a break from food shopping and cooking – either on a weekday/evening or for Sunday lunch. And it can be important for a whole range of other reasons – perhaps catch-up time for a busy couple or a chance to meet up for the whole family and enjoy quality time together – without dashing in and out of a hot kitchen!
Today, there are so many choices available. For some people, home-made dishes like your mother used to cook may hit the mark, perhaps followed up by a school memory-evoking satisfying pudding! For others, a more sophisticated menu and a well-stocked wine cellar or local brews may be important. Increasingly popular is locally-sourced and/or organic fare.
In this feature you will find local places to eat out and the good news is – they are right on your doorstep!
