Jamie's Italian at Milton Keynes kindly invited me and a guest (which of course, was Luke!) to come have a bite to eat. I had only ever been to Jamie's once before, but I was thoroughly impressed this time.

The decor, of course, was fabulous and hearkened the sense of an old Italian kitchen.

If you really liked the meal, you could purchase one of Jamie's many cookbooks. After taking in our surroundings, we had a seat and had a look at the menu.

You can't have an Italian meal without your bread....so of course we ordered the bread platter as well. It came with oil and vinegar and an olive sauce for dipping.

I opted for the small portion of prawn linguine. Even though our waiter thought it would be too small for a dinner portion, it was actually just perfect for me and even a little bit filling. The dish was amazing and wonderful for summer as although it was filling, it wasn't a heavy meal that left you feeling meh at the end. The sauce and garlic prawns were excellent.

I don't think I've ever taken a picture of a toilet before, but before we made our way home, I stopped in to use the bathroom. The history nut in me loved the old fashioned turn-of-last century style decor...and these old fashioned Thomas Crapper toilets. A little digging told me that these are exact replicas of the Victorian and Edwardian originals, just with a few changes to suit modern plumbing. Is it weird that I took a picture of this? Yes, kind of. But I had to share!
The food at Jamie's was fantastic. I have also felt a tiny connection to Jamie Oliver since his wife has lupus. At any rate, Luke and I had a fabulous time and ate some lovely food. Thank you to Jamie's at Milton Keynes for a lovely night out!

Wow that food looks soooo good! I love Italian!
ReplyDeleteSorry if this is inappropriate to say but your boyfriend looks really hot here! (You look lovely too, of course).
I really love how you make the effort to find similar products of clothes if the specific ones you're wearing are sold out. That's nice. A lot of people will just say stuff like "from last year's collection" or "now unavailable" and don't bother to find similar examples so I do appreciate this. I can't remember if I told you this before but I have actually bought something after seeing it on your blog! It was a cream puffy skirt from your post on Zoella's outfit in TGBBO. More fashion posts, please!
It isn't inappropriate! And he appreciated it!
DeleteThank you! I am so glad people are appreciating it. I will keep doing it. There are a couple more fashion posts coming so sit tight. xx
This place looks AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteIt was, thank you!
