Kids Eat Out: Pizza Express

Last weekend we were invited to Pizza Express to check out their Ice Age Collision Course activity sheets that come with each Piccolo activity pack. We had an awesome meal and even got to make some dough shapes to take home too!

The Piccolo menu costs £6.95 and has three courses. Drinks are extra.

The Ice Age Collision Course activity sheet is really good and I can't wait to watch the film now!

For starter I had baked dough balls with garlic butter and salad. They were yummy, the salad was fresh and delicious too, no floppy carrots here! ;)

My pizza was a Pollo which is chicken, it was really delicious but I would have liked a little bit more cheese as it was quite tomatoey.

For dessert I had a sundae which is a scoop of vanilla gelato with either fruit or chocolate sauce and a mini cone on top. You also get a bambinoccino which is frothy milk with chocolate sprinkled on top. 

I love Pizza Express and can't wait to go again :)

Kids Eat Out: Colman's Fish & Chips South Shields

When we went on holiday at half term we went to South Shields for the day, Mum went on Trip Advisor to find the best Fish & Chips in South Shields and we discovered Colman's Fish & Chips. Colman's have a take away and a restaurant and we decided that we would sit and eat in the restaurant as it was a pretty chilly day.

The kids menu had an under the sea theme and was full of puzzles, anagrams and colouring for me to do! I really enjoyed this and even took it home to finish it.

On the kids menu (Under 12's) you could choose from...

• Fish & Chips - £4.50
• Fishcake & Chips - £4.50
• Sausage & Chips - £4.50
• Crispy Chicken Fillets & Chips - £4.50

Each item comes with Heinz Tomato Ketchup and a Simply Fruity drink or glass of cordial. 

I went for sausage and chips as I am not too keen on fish. I was a bit worried about the chips as they were so thick and usually they are very potatoey when they are thick but these were really really nice.   I ate everything on my plate as it was delicious! 

Mum & Dad had the fish & chips special and were very impressed. We will definitely go back on our next visit to South Shields :)

Kids Eat Out: GBK Metro Centre Gateshead

We have eaten at Gourmet Burger Kitchen loads of times, it is Mum & Dad's favourite place to go for burgers. Kids get their very own menu with a colouring sheet on the back so once we had ordered our burgers we sat and coloured them in.

The junior menu is £6.95 and for that you can choose a burger, side and a drink. You can even add a dessert for £1.00 if you wish but I am always too full for that.

The burgers you can choose from are cheeseburger, chicken burger or veggie burger. The sides are chunky skin-on or skinny fries, corn on the cob or a simple green salad. For drinks you can choose from fresh apple or orange juice, spring water, lots of different milkshake flavours and soft drinks like Coca-Cola or Sprite.

I went for a cheeseburger (without cheese), skinny fries and a chocolate milkshake. It was really delicious but I was so full after my milkshake. It is so filling! Next time I won't drink so much before my burger arrives. 

The staff at the Metro Centre GBK were very friendly and super fast! Our whole meal was awesome so GBK gets a big thumbs up from me :)
