Baraouda

Found this place tucked away in a little side street, next door to Momo's and Icebar (both of which I am sure offer poor value in comparision). It was small and cosy, and the two of us were offered a small table on the far side, next to the exposed brick wall. I ordered the fried brie with blueberry for starter and my partner had a mozorella, avocado and tomato salad (however, this came with a dressing of salad cream which he liked, but I didn't). Both were very good. For main I had the lasagne, while my partner had chicken in tomato sauce. Mine was very tasty, but couldn't finish it after my generous portion of brie, but insisted on having it packed so I could enjoy it properly the next day! My partner's dish was good.. but came with a serving of brocolli and brussel sprouts.. both of which horrify him (and weren't mentioned on the menu)!! All in all, the menu offered a large choice, and the food had a wonderful, homecooked authentic flavour, and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely visit again :)
