Sep 13 World Service

I'm back in Nottingham for a few days & it's time to get reacquainted with the city.

There's a stroll under a blue sky & I'm clocking what's changed & what hasn't.

The Council House & the Lions are still in place, thankfully.

Cloughie's statue & the Leaf Stem also unmoved.

I'm dining solo here this evening - The World Service Restaurant.

You're well looked after whether or not it's just you or a group of family & friends.

A little cocktail to start as the menu is checked out

To begin - it's Flaked Cod with Smoked Yolk, Salt Baked Celeriac, Pickled Mushroom, Onions & Soy Broth

Who knew that a soft egg on a fat fillet of cod could bring so much joy

To follow - Derbyshire Fillet of Beef & the plate mates are Confit Potato, Crispy Onions, Oxtail, Parsnip, Carrot, Shallot

My drinking companion is a Brouilly Beaujolais

An evening walk around the Market Square as the light disappears before heading home.
