Going to try and move to Blue Sky permanently.
Plan to leave this account dormant except for necessary (job-related) passive use.
So for badly photographed pictures of random cafes in Liverpool, it will be bsky.app/profile/stephenb80.…
Small meat has become one of my favourite breakfasts. Lamb fried with spices, tomato and lots of oil. Served by a lot of arabic/central Asian places. This is Watan, an Afghan place on Smithdown Road. The hot, fresh, kitchen made bread makes an enormous difference.
Castro's in the city centre is rightly famous for its' sandwiches but the tortilla is also excellent, and interesting. It's got a chunky but creamy exture, think I has lots of garlic too.
Accidentally ordered far too much at Namu Oru Dosa off Edge Lane last night.
Great, cheap, simple, Sri Lankan place.
Especially enjoyed the lentil soup, deep fried cauliflower and of course a dosa.
Enjoyed fuul (beans, tomatoes, spiced etc) and small meat (fried lamb) for breakfast at Middle Eastern Yemeni restaurant in Lodge Lane.

Yes, we live in a timeline in which the axis of three dictatorial totalitarian powers openly join hands to erase a 40-million European nation as Western decision-makers are still obsessed with making sure they are not crossing lines in helping it.
Turkish eggs and other stuff at Moi Bakeshop at the bottom of Fact/Picturehouse, which continues to be one the best places for brunch and dessert in town.
Loving the home made italian food and cake at a Dante society event in Mossley Hill sports club. Wish you could get this style in restaurants here!

I think about the "Old Redhead's" lesson every day since.
We're all constantly surrounded by MVPs...we just have to think of them that way, every day. 13/
A very niche tweet, but if like me you miss the old @tom_ravenscroft show on Radio 6 I've found the @jamzsupernova show is a great and fairly similar alternative. Last one here: bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0023f… Skip straight to the live KOKOKO! session to get moving.
Tried the new gulf restaurant style Arabic place off Duke Street, underground and has little curtained off areas to eat while sat on the floor.
Food good, similar level to some other local places, bit below personal faves (e.g. real taste and sheba). Okra stew was great.
On tour today, enjoyed the fuul (crushed beans, tomatoes, onions and spices) at Damascena in Birmingham, 5 mins walk from New Street train station.
Lovely pork belly, deep fried plantain and guacamole at Sefton Park latin american day, made by a stall from The Twins, a columbian place in Dale Street.
Loved this 'Paris-Brest' dessert thing at Moi Bakeshop at the bottom of Fact/Picturehouse, place is a hidden gym.
Some recent food I've enjoyed.
Chicken mandhi at watan in smithdown Road.
Mediterranean breakfast at Cafe FM in Widnes.
Variety of dishes from the Chinese menu (we used Google translate) at Man Tsuen Ho's in Chinatown.
Beef burrito and bowl at Big Lola's in Smithdown Road.
