A celebrated food critic has sung the praises of three Cardiff restaurants, after apparently facing a snag in her initial eating plans whilst on a trip to the Welsh capital. The Sunday Times writer Marina O'Loughlin had to abandon her original (unnamed) restaurant choice, over what she says was a bit of a snag in the booking process, and ended up eating at not just one but three of our restaurants: Bacareto, Kindle and Nook.
And it seems they thoroughly impressed her - and understandably so. With a shared "loveliness" and "commitment to getting it right", Marina wrote of this appetising trio: "This lot know the contemporary food scene and are happily up to their armpits in it" and in her headline described them as "Cardiff's hat-trick of local restaurants".
With Plan A scuppered after she says she experienced poor service in attempting to book a table, she came up with Plan B, C and D - the latter (Nook) gripped her attention through a social media post in which they pleaded for help in spreading the word of their indie business far and wide.
