If you take a walk up Nottingham city centre's Long Row you'd be forgiven for not noticing that you're walking past one of the most revered restaurants in the city. But Cannon Court - a small alleyway off Long Row sandwiched between a chicken shop and a Tesco - is home to the fabulous Michelin-recommended Japanese eatery Kushi-ya.
The narrow path, adjacent to another of the city's hidden gem alleys, Hurts Yard, is starting to garner more attention than ever of late, with queues of people outside of Kushi-ya last week waiting to taste the highly-recommended food. Other than The Johnson Partnership - a solicitors firm - the sought-after restaurant is the only other business in Cannon Court.
The small side-street eatery serves snacks, small plates, skewers and desserts with a twist. Favourites include furikake prawn toast, prawn katsu sando, chicken tsukune and tira-miso - an Asian take on the Italian dessert.
