Another fine place we can go back to

Hello my lovely internets, did you have a good weekend?

Now that all our restraining orders have been lifted, the family von strange aka auntiegwen and the weans went out for brunch to celebrate the bold boy being 16. We went to Roodys because Katyboo keeps blogging about how great it was. If you want to look at cake porn click on the word Roodys and the magic bloggy fairy shall take you there.

And it was, we had paninis, we had milkshakes, we had cupcakes, we had pancakes, we had icecream, we had a squidy thing made with curly wurlys. We also had what I call space dust (I'm of an age) you may call it popping candy.

Like Katyboo says, it looks great, the food tastes fab and the service is amazing. Please go if you're around that part of the world, we had a 30 minute drive to get there and we weren't disappointed.

And the best bit?

The best bit of all?

They didn't turn a hair when Hot Boy tried to snort his space dust like cocaine. What? he has an enquiring mind. If you also are curious, let me save you the trouble, nothing happens and you are left with a very sticky nose.

You're welcome.

BAGgie, that BB has such an enquiring mind! I am glad you can go back to it - I'm only ever allowed once in any one place, I am just such a messy eater! :) xxx

Just had a look a the website and it looks fab. the Outlaws live in Coventry so we spend a fair amount (far too much) of time in the W Midlands.....you've given me ideas....

Sounds lovely, looks lovely and of course importantly it looks the kind of place where they wouldn't get too cross if something got spilt or snorted up the nose a la HB ;)

Hot boy is clearly a Case.

I have already told the sister who lives in earl shilton about it and suggested she case the joint (no pun intended). I was supposed to be going to see her next weekend and had planned to drag her there - but now she is going to Finland instead (as you do) and leaving her dog with me en route to Heathrow, so I have to delay my visit a couple more weeks. I am salivating at the thought of the cakes as I type.

is that a list of what was ordered, did you have some of each or do you now need to run 16 marathons to offset intake?!
