Day Off

Took a day off today. No real reason, just thought that a long weekend would be nice :)

All we’ve done today is look for a greasy-spoon cafe… and we failed. In Croydon, we used to frequent the StarExpress cafe in the centre of town a lot. It does a nice fried breakfast and is very Jon friendly. We want something similar here in Worcester.

We’ve tried the Tesco’s cafe and it’s not up to scratch. The food is very much “pre-cooked” and sitting on warming plates for when you order. It certainly isn’t as nice as a freshly cooked breakfast! Today we had a drive around looking for somewhere and couldn’t find anywhere. Eventually we parked in a carpark and went and looked around the city centre. Again, not a lot to be seen in the way of places that do all-day breakfasts…

We came across a place called “Poppins”. It was not a good experience. The decor was very 70s and the food was not fantastic – definitely not freshly cooked either. It was also quite expensive at ?15 for 2 breakfasts and Jon’s meal. We won’t be going back and so the search will continue…
