This week’s foodie blog post is my first collaboration with Street Food Club in Nottingham’s Victoria Centre. I moonlighted on their Instagram and their Insta story this week and they kindly gifted Luke and I this dinner and some lovely drinks. As you know, I only work with brands on a paid or gifted basis if I either already love the brand or I know I’ll be into it. Now, I’ve featured Notts Street Food Club a few times on my blog, most recently in my 3 Date Night Eats that I absolute love in Notts and they’re a constant feature in my weekly lunch and dinner schedule as well as on my Instagram stories. So, you can guarantee that I’m only working with Notts Street Food Club because I 100% believe in the food the sellers serve and the concept. Disclaimer over, let’s talk chicken.
El Capo bring tacos to Nottingham
Finally, a proper Mexican restaurant has planted itself in Nottingham. I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time. I know we have Las Iguanas (which isn’t technically Mexican FYI) and Barburrito and Tortilla but these guys basically serve beans and rice in a wrap for lunch. So, it’s safe to say there was a Mexican restaurant shaped hole in my heart. Now it’s been filled! Say hey to El Capo, based in Hockley, down Broadway, where The Rum House used to be, this Mexican Cantina is everything I’ve been waiting for.
Homemade Guacamole Recipe
The thing about me is, I love food and I quite like cooking but I’m a lazy cook and if it’s just for me, like it has been for pretty much 3 years of my university life, I’ll cook something big like chilli or lasagne and make it last 3 days or do something simple such as spicy chicken with some pasta and veg. So, there you have it, my cooking repertoire.
