Beef bulgogi sliced to tick and cooked too long. Chicken Karage, regular chicken filet not chicken breasts and fried too long.

When Wagamama's first opened in London it felt pretty exotic and unique. I remember visiting their…read moreGuildford branch and being impressed by the quality and healthiness of the food (when Japanese wasn't in fashion). I'm glad it's been brought to Norwich and the location is good - perfect for a light lunch while your shopping or for a pre or post theatre meal. But I can't help thinking that it hasn't really moved on with its concept and there are plenty of competitors out there who are catching up fast. What if I don't want to share my meal with some random people next door? What if I don't want my 16 year old server, who doesn't know the menu, to scribble all over the piece of paper sitting in front of me? Why do they always sit everyone bunched together even though the restaurant is half full? Wagamama's is the Pizza Express of the noughties - offering something a little bit risque but in a safe environment. They need to update the menu and drop their prices and then I might visit more often.

I tried their liver, eggplant "aubergine" parmigiana, simple arrabiata penne pasta, and mushroom risotto. The downside of this place is that it is by reservations only, and they hardly answer their phone. Forgot a $600 sunglasses in there and couldn't get it back. Other than that, it's worth a try and I think it's hands down the best Italian in town!

I was surprised to find a Pret here in Norwich, but that's just me thinking they were only in…read moreLondon. It's a happy surprise, because I love Pret and their fantastic creative sandwiches. I really love the Mozzarella Pesto Bloomer, which arrives on 7 grain bread with sliced tomatoes and fresh basil leaves. Or if you want meat, try the Swedish Meatball Ragu Hot Wrap. Both are amazing with crisps ("potato chips) and I love the sweet potato if you can find them. Pret does offer free wi-fi (and amazing coffees) but I was not able to find a power outlet.

I know that if I go to Pedros I am guaranteed great food, great cocktails and great service!! You always get a friendly welcome and the staff are excellent! Its a Mexican style restaurant, with a great vibe and buzz about the place, you can even wear the Pedros sombreros if you really want to embrace the Mexican theme. They serve Mexican style food, fajitas, enchiladas, tacos, burritos etc etc.. I often have the Enchilada Suiza, which always tastes great, it is served with either rice or the sautéed potatoes (very yummy)! I would also recommend the Chilli Relleno as a starter!

Located in the park at Chapelfield Gardens, Pedros is well worth a visit for lunch or an evening meal. Families are welcome and you are encouraged to wear silly Sombreros for a bit of fun. Ideal for groups of friends or workmates, or just a bit of family time with good food. The atmosphere is fun, and can therefore get a bit loud, and it is very popular so booking is wise, but if you are prepared to wait a bit you can usually get a table if your party is not too big. Well worth a visit for good food and a bit of a laugh.

A bunch of booths for dining, decent music (it's starting to fill up now) and funky decor. Bud is only 3.30 a pint a revelation for a Henley-ite and the waiter is friendly and helpful. Food has now turned up literally within five minutes. Let me taste and then carry onTwenty minutes later and two stone in weight. I have absolutely nothing whatsoever to complain about. That was a damn good meal, at a damn good price and probably one of the best American meals I have had in my entire life. Sublime burger cooked to perfection, absolutely smothered in chili, a mountain of fries, a mixed salad big enough to be a meal in itself and a pint of Bud. Grand total £13.95. Get in there!

The restaurant is nice and clean, however tables are a bit sticky. Burgers were fresh, but not standing out, but FRIES WERE REALLY GOOD! Maybe it's because we were the only table at a weird hour - the fries are made so fresh and just right - crispy on the outside and so fluffy on the inside! Definitely one of the better fries places.

Ever the open minded traveller (and food lover) when I found out that I would be visiting the Wildebeest Arms a local popular gastropub run by a top local chef, I was excited! My excitement extended to elation when I learned that instead of Sunday brunch, Britts tend to enjoy something called Sunday Lunch, which is served in the early afternoon and most typically involves you consuming the traditional meal of roast beef with Yorkshire pudding - OMG! So take it from this Canadian, back home - in Toronto, there are a lot of places that offer a Roast Beef dinner, specifically Irish/English pubs, and you know what - they do alright by the tradition, but, more often than not, you're getting something overcooked and just missing a soul. I've never had authentic British cuisine before, and say what you want about it... but it's hearty, it's seasonal, it's delicious and just feels good! The Roast dinner/lunch special was about 20GBP if memory serves so in CAD $ that's about $35. Everything was incredibly tasty and cooked perfectly, however, some members of our party noted that sections of their beef was a touch over cooked. On the other hand, my order was perfection, my only complaint - and maybe it's the glutton in me, but the serving I received was much smaller than that of others at the table. I was a tad disappointed about this since it was the part of the meal I enjoyed the most. The size of my meat (pause for a laugh) aside, the entire meal including the YSP (Yorkshire puds), the potatoes and root veggies were all on point and cooked masterfully! I was feeling peckish still at the conclusion of my meal and somehow got talked into ordering another UK seasonal favourite for dessert - Sticky Toffee Pudding. OMG x2, this cake is basically like a piece of dessert concrete and if I had about 25% room left before, I was properly 45% over capacity following my consumption if it. But so worth every sinful bite, especially the to die for caramel sauce the whole dish sat in.. nom nom nom nom. I can't say I'll be back in Norwich in the near future again, but if you're traveling out this way and happen upon the Wildebeest Arms on a Sunday, add it to your travel plans Eatcrest Out
