[Review] Greggs Festive Mint Chocolate

As Greggs have launched some festive items, I was here for the mint chocolate drink.

Unfortunately I was a bit stuffed so just had the steak bake which is delicious tender beef in gravy inside a puff pastry.

The mint chocolate was rather sweet but then I expected it to be sweet because the hot chocolate base is sweet so adding mint syrup will make it sweeter.

Overall, the mint chocolate is worth trying as the hot chocolate they serve is not bad with a hint of mind.
On another visit, had the triple chocolate donut and the caramel custard donut.

[Review] Shades of Eastbourne

Eastbourne has changed so much over the past 30 years.

The town has seen so many changes with the loss of C&A, Littlewoods, BHS etc let alone restaurants.

There are not many places in the Arndale centre that serve English food except Shades which is understandably popular and busy during lunch times.

I love my traditionally home cooked old fashioned English food hence my regular visits to Shades.

As well as food, the tea is strong which compliments the food perfectly.

Here are the dishes I have had and the roast lamb was probably the best because it tastes like school dinners and the Marie rose prawns with baked potato.

The only drawback is the service, I wish they could be a bit more friendlier, not all of the staff but some.

[Review] KFC's Festive Burger

KFC has launched some festive items for Christmas.

Tried the new Festive Burger which is packed with a succulent Original Recipe fillet, a crispy hash brown, a delicious sage and onion stuffing mayo and topped with a tangy cranberry dressing and a layer of cheese.

Overall, the festive burger is worth trying because the cranberry sauce is really good and compliments the chicken.

The only complaint were the fries because there was no festive flavoured seasoning like the product shot but they were just ordinary fries.

[Sweet Tooth] Chocolate Kebabs in Eastbourne

Chocolate kebabs first came to UK in 2016 and now Eastbourne has their first chocolate kebab at Sweet Tooth Eastbourne at Cavendish Place.

I hope to go one day but they open at 4pm until 11pm so it really sucks if you don't live nearby.

Goodbye to KFC on Langney Road, Eastbourne

I love KFC and the one I usually go to is the Langney Road branch when I am in town.

Without this, the nearest one would be the drive through which is annoying if you don't drive.

The chicken legs here are moist if you happen to be there at the right time when they have been freshly fried.
The chicken has this lovely stickiness between the skin and the coating which is absolutely delicious and even more divine with extra gravy.
Anyway, sad to see it go and this is probably the beginning as lots more will probably close soon.
