Amsterdam; city of style, great people and freedom… shame about the disabled access! All the streets in the main city area are cobbled and the road system of cars/buses/trams/motorbikes/scooters/bikes is bewildering. They come at you from all directions! It doesn’t help that when you decide to place yourself in a restaurant away from the chaos…
We haven’t been to Cigalon but they tell me there are 6 steps to get in and there is no disabled toilet because it is a Grade II Listed Building – not again! It looks lovely as it is a former auction house with a glass ceiling, we’ll update you when we’ve visited unless you…

He won the fish course in The Great British Menu 2013 for Comic Relief. He served ‘A Culinary Joke’ which was a reworked prawn cocktail…
British theatres outside of London are a real recent success story, blossoming in the face of adversity. With cuts to arts programmes going on at the same time that potential customers are being hit by tough financial ciircumstances, it’s been a difficult time for them.
