Crowning glory
An email tells me today that the Crown, a fine old corner pub in Corporation Street near the law courts, is soon to reopen after a refurbishment. From the blurb, it sounds like it's going to be a smart place with an Italian-influenced menu.
I know on my last blog I moaned about pubs abandoning tradional bar fare for fancy nosh, but the Crown sounds to me like it will be a good addition to the city centre drinking/eating scene.
Consistency's all very well. But where these matters are concerned, I confess I'm usually guided by my belly. And right now I'd love to be sitting down to a hearty bowl of pasta.

Well, I went to a wine tasting at The Crown last week.
The owner of the pub kindly provided some nibbles and, if they're an indication of what's to come, good eating times are ahead.
It's 2 minutes' walk from my office and yet I've still not tried it out. But must give it a go after David's comments.
