Ladies' Night in Darwen

Well it really was ladies' night last night as Chloe Coverley took part in the tourist board's Lancashire Hot Shots initiative at MJ's in Darwen where the 19-year-old took over the restaurant's kitchen for the evening and boy what a job she did! Having designed her own three course menu Chloe produced a stunning evening.

Girls' Night Out

Friday night saw myself and my friend leaving the family at home and heading out of Blackpool for a good old girlie chat over dinner. Having checked out the website for a good recommendation we chose to take a drive up the A6 to the New Holly at Forton. Neither of us had been before but the newly promoted head chef Sam Sanderson had taken part in one of our Lancashire Hot Shots events last year and the feedback had been excellent.

Ship Ahoy!

Where to go for Father's Day lunch was the dilemma... The Ship at Elswick the solution. Chosen from our yummy list of Taste Lancashire accredited restaurants, and one that I hadn't tried before (or known anyone else to). Was it a gamble that paid off?
