Sovrano Caffe!!

By Tirada Suwannaparisut (Kim)

If you are looking for the perfect morning starter, lovely lunch, or relaxing evening hangout, I have one restaurant to recommend you, which is, "Sovrano Caffe". This restaurant provides both delicious pastries and espresso beverages and a variety menu with main courses and appetisers. 

Hawaiian Pizza and Cheesy Garlic Bread

Spaghetti Carbonara

I will recommend you two main courses and one appetizer that my friends and I really love when we went to Sovrano Caffe. "Hawaiian Pizza" is a one kind of pizza which consists of tomatoes and cheese based with toppings of pineapples and ham. Another one is the "Spaghetti Carbonara", the Italian pasta dish that has a white sauce based on cheese, bacon, egg, and black pepper. Last but not least, the simple yet delicious appetiser to highlight your meal is "Cheesy Garlic Bread".

Sovrano Caffe

In my opinion, even though there are many Italian restaurant in West Midlands area,  I personally think that Sovrano Caffe is the best! Not only they offer delicious foods and wonderful atmospheres but as well as lovely staffs and a super good service that makes you feel like home.

China Red, Coventry

By Jatuporn Atipatayawong

A little while ago, I was craving for some chinese food as I was walking in the city center. There are many chinese places in Coventry city area where you can grab chinese meal. I always walk pass China Red on my way back home but I have never tried their dinner buffet menu until couple days ago. 

China Red offers chinese buffet which is somewhat differ than other chinese restaurants rather than having to walk around and picking your dish from the buffet table, here you can order anything from the buffet menu (much more to choose from than regular buffet) which will be cooked freshly and served to your table. This is like the buffet meal with a full services!! What could have been better!!

From the range of menu they offered, it was hard to decide on what to have as there were only two of us and we know we couldn't have it all. Upon waiting for the food to arrive, the prawn cracker was served as an appetiser without ordering. Although the prawn cracker was irresistible, I recommend you to just have some bite or not at all for your own benefit as this will make you full quicker :)

For the stater, we ordered crispy aromatic duck, wonton soup, and chicken & sweetcorn soup to share. Overall, I would recommended the crispy aromatic duck and the wonton soup. The crispy aromatic duck was served with the pancake, veggies, and hoi sin sauce (on the sweet side). 

The right way to eat this is to paste the sauce on to the pancake then put some duck and veggies on top then finally wrap the pancake and put it in your mouth. The salty and crispy texture of the duck combine with the freshness of the veggies together with the sweet hoi sin sauce, that is just pretty much everything in just a bite!! The wonton soup is a clear soup with wonton. From the dense taste of the duck, wonton soup is pretty light and will give you more appetite for the next dishes.

As for main, we ordered six different dishes. I couldn't remember all the name but I do remember some of my favorite. Here are what I recommended you to try: Deep Fried Shredded Chili beef, Roast Duck in Plum Sauce, and King Prawn Foo Yung. The truth is all the dishes were actually good (way better than those on the regular chinese buffet table) but the three I recommended are those I will ordered again if I have a chance to go back for another visit. For the price of 13.99, I think China Red is worth.

The Saxon Mill

By Jatuporn Atipatayawong

Everybody is excited for the coming summer where the weather is going to be nice outside. What could have been better than dining out in this perfect weather? I have been looking for the restaurant that provides an outdoor seating where I could eat while appreciating the sun, the sky, and the nature. I came across The Saxon Mill in Warwick which offer the modern British food with the open bar tapas. 

Here there are variety range of menu to choose from where the chef actually change the menu according to the seasonal ingredients that are available. My friends and I were there for the dinner so we ordered the chicken wing bruschetta, the beef burger, and crispy duck salad. 

The burger was served with hand cut fries. The taste was quite regular as I am not a fan of burger but the patty was juicy to my taste. The chicken wing bruschetta was their special dish of the day which the chicken wings were marinated with the bbq sauce and served with the bruschetta on the side. The combination of the bbq chicken and the bruschetta was much better than what I expected. My favorite dish of the day was the crispy duck salad. The salad was not the typical salad with the usual veggie, but instead this salad came with thin slices of mooli, carrot, and cucumber. On top of that was the crispy juicy duck. The dressing was on the fruity sweet side. Together, all I could said is "perfect", super delicious and refreshing. If it is still on the menu when you get there, give it a try!!

The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxing and will give you a break from reality. This is a great restaurant for outdoor dining or having a catch up with friends during this summertime. Not only they have tables outside for outdoor dining, but they also offers an indoor dining which also gives a nice atmosphere as well. This restaurant also serves breakfast from 8am to noon.
