Some Restaurants

I ate out a lot when in Liverpool. Here is a run down on a few of the places that we tried.

Il Forno
It claims to be an authentic Italian restaurant and I guess it is - given that I couldn't read the menu. Even though I didn't get the pizza I thought I had ordered (I got it wrong - not them!) it was delicious. The staff were friendly and even put up with questions from people like me who don't understand the wine tasting process or what fork to use etc. (I can sense Dermo cringe reading this!). Also, a few helped us stage a fake happy birthday incident that embarressed the life out of one of our Danish contingent!

Christakis Taverna
This Cypriot run Greek restaurant feels like the real thing. Sitting with the group at the long table it took me back to good times spent under my grandmothers vine eating with the family. It was just like eating in Cyprus! I can recommend this to anyone - unless of course you are only into poncy, overly fancy food.

HA HA
Food and service so bad you'd think they were having a laugh. Do not go to this restaurant. Spend your hard earned cash somewhere else on something you have a better chance of enjoying.

Pizza Express
Sometimes it is good to walk into an establishment that you just know. You know what to expect from Pizza express and you get what you expect - decent food at decent prices.

The Olive Press
I found out what Gnocchi was when I ate here. I found out later it is part of the Heathcotes chain but it didn't feel like a franchise. Very reasonably priced, good food, top notch service.
