Monday, 3rd February 2020 – Akasaka, Milton Keynes We had a date to go to the theatre in Milton Keynes, as we had tickets to see Sandi Toksvig on her “National Trevor” tour. As Lynne was working in the office that day (which is in MK), we decided I would pick her up from the…

Food 2018 – Maaya, Brasserie Blanc, Milton Keynes
Wednesday, 25th July 2018 – Brasserie Blanc, Milton Keynes This was an odd one… We tried to eat out twice during the week with the intention of testing new places and ended up failing completely on both occasions and having to fall back on old favourites instead. Sometimes it just all goes awry. On the…
Food 2017 – Local Food Options, Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire
We had a busy few weeks trying out or revisiting a variety of restaurants around and about our home town and some of them are worth making a note of here for one or another reason! I’ll tackle them in alphabetic order I think. Sunday 30th April, 2017 – The Narrow Boat, Weedon Bec We…
Food 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen (Chilean Wine Dinner), Stony Stratford
Wednesday 19th October, 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford Cameron’s have for a long time run a series of wine dinners, based around a country or region and with food chosen to match. And so after a gap where they’d been trying to figure out what region to go for next, we found ourselves attending…
Music 2016 – Erja Lyytinen, The Stables, Wavendon
Sunday, 1st October 2016 – Erja Lyytinen, The Stables, Wavendon, Milton Keynes A Sunday night in October at The Stables in Wavendon, and there we were, yet again crammed into the Stage2 space waiting for something interesting! In this case, the act was Erja Lyytinen, a Finnish blues guitar player who, I confess, I had…
Food 2016 – Akasaka, Wolverton
Friday 30th September 2016 – Akasaka, Wolverton, Milton Keynes I like Japanese food as much as – OK, probably more than in some cases – the next person, so the fact that there’s one a 25 minute drive away from home makes me wonder why we don’t go rather more often. Anyway, having managed to…
Food 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford
Tuesday, 6th September 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford An email in late August alerted me to the fact that one of my favourite eating places, Cameron’s Kitchen, in Stony Stratford was rolling out a new menu, with lots of starters/sharing plates, a small selection on more conventional meat, fish and vegetarian options, and a…
Food 2016 – The Crooked Billet, Newton Longville
Saturday, 20th August 2016 – The Crooked Billet, Newton Longville, Milton Keynes We’d eaten at The Crooked Billet before (for a Burns Night Supper when there’d been a set menu) and had been meaning for some time to come back on a “normal” night, so a flying visit from a friend to collect a barbeque…
Food 2016 – The Braai Shack, Wolverton
Friday, 26th August, 2016 – The Braai Shack, Wolverton Just to prove it’s not all fine dining, Michelin Stars and Gault-Millau around these parts, last weekend we took a trip to the Braai Shack, a South African restaurant in one half of a pub in one of the shabbier bits of Milton Keynes, Wolverton. With…
