#2 The World Bar, Resorts World

Our Order
Steak Burger £9.25
Leifmans Fruitesse £4.90
Einstock Pale Ale £5.40
£19.55
6/10
Last weekend we made a trip over to Resorts World opposite the NEC in Birmingham. After wandering round for an hour or so we decided to get ourselves a small lunch so popped into The World Bar. As soon as we walked in there were really good vibes and we struggled to find a table but fortunately, we were in luck. We initially were taken back by the alcohol choices and I found myself a cherry/raspberry beer whilst Jed got himself a pale ale which he’d never tried before. Both were delicious and the choice of drinks were impressive. However we were slightly underwhelmed by the food and the slow service. We shared a burger which was just an average burger which we waited close to 30 minutes for which is probably what made us so underwhelming. We also spotted that on a busy Saturday afternoon there was only one waitress serving door. Having never ate there before I couldn’t tell you if this is a regular occurrence but we couldn’t help but feel sorry for her as she ran around like a headless chicken trying to do everything she could for everyone. Overall, I’d probably suggest going for something to drink over something to eat but with the prices, you may not be in there for long.

We Quit

-
Well, long time, no see! You read it - we quit. After months and months of deliberation, we finally did it. We’re spending the next 7 months travelling round Asia and then we’re moving to CANADA! At this moment in time we’re gearing up for the adventure of a lifetime and we’re excited to take you with us! We’ve created an entire Instagram that is going to be dedicated to our travels and you can follow it on @otterstravels. We’ve been thinking long and hard about what we want our travel vlogs and IG to consist of and we think it’s worth getting excited about! We would love to hear from you guys about what you would be interested to see while we’re out and about too. Otters Kitchen will remain fully in tact and we will be incorporating that into our videos along side our everyday adventures. Edinburgh is going to be our first stop. We have a whole 6 days to make the most out of Fringe 2019 and this is where our vlog adventure will begin (if we remember and get use to picking a camer...

We had checked the menu on the Saturday and we were really excited to jump into it, especially after feeling the vibes as soon as we walked through the door. It wasn't too busy but you could feel the buzz. We struggled to settle on something for a while but my heart was telling me to go for the River Phoenix immediately purely for the Frazzles - I really wanted something different. The frazzles added a great texture to the burger, I just wanted more. It sounded like it was almost going to...

#40 Yard&Coop, Manchester

Our Order: Thighs, Blue Cheese Sauce, Salt & Pepper Chips £12.50 Double Mac £16 ( Two buttermilk chicken breasts, sandwiched with mac n cheese, crispy bacon, Dr Pepper BBQ and cheese sauces. Topped with two Dr Pepper BBQ wings.) Extra Buffalo Sauce £1 £29.50 9/10 After wandering round for about half an hour, looking for Almost Famous, we had no luck so we headed into Yard & Coop instead.  The place was filled to the brim and had a great atmosphere (and an ever better drinks menu). The variety of beers they offer is something and there was also a good few options for cocktails too. Both had nothing on the food menu though. Making a decision of something to eat was so hard as we both wanted everything on the menu, especially after seeing the food coming out of the kitchen. I was torn between trying the Dr Pepper sauce and the buffalo sauce so decided to go with the Double Mac with a side of buffalo because I'm greedy and refuse to regret not eating something. It was s...
