My boyfriend took me to the maze (gordon ramsay's restaurant in london) as a surprise for my 21st! It was amazing. It was hilarious though as we had steak for main and we said we didn't want sides. As we were newbies to michelin starred dining we didnt realise you should order sides so we literally just had steak!! was the best we've ever had though :)

I can't wait to have enough money to do purnell's :D going to Jamie's Italian in Oxford in 2 weeks for my birthday i'm so excited :) :)

I went to the Fat Duck a couple of years ago for my birthday, I didn't really like it The cooking was nice but the menu wasn't really what I'd go for, some really bizarre things on there! However for a celeb chef restaurant it wasn't pretentious in any way.

I have only met him once at his babies Christening, but I really appreciated him inviting me! He was lovely and so welcoming, exactly as he comes across, which is always nice!

He has asked us to go to his restaurant but we keep putting it off, its quite a lot of money for us and while he has said it will be on him, I don't want him to feel we are taking advantage! I genuinely am dying to try his food!
