This week, The Pig is mostly…
GEARING up to make a very special announcement about a very exciting collaboration between The Pig Guide and Dan Moon at The Gainsborough Bath Spa Hotel: yup, we’re talking Supper Club! Full details will be announced any moment now; visit our homepage, keep an eye on our Twitter feed and/or, of course, make sure you check back right here in two weeks time for The Big Reveal.
LOVIN’ the fact that legendary Bath burger institution Schwartz Bros recently celebrated their 43rd birthday and still flourishes under its original, independent family ownership, including the same guy who flipped the very first burger. Our top three Schwartz scoffs: the Garlic Mayo Cheeseburger, the Veggie Bluecheeseburger… and fries with Original Hot Roadhouse, either as a standalone treat or with anything else on the menu (www.schwartzbros.co.uk)
EAGERLY anticipating our forthcoming Joya Italian Steakhouse fact-finding mission – the bespoke Hotstone Steak Experience bodes very well indeed! This lovely, longstanding independent bistro has recently undergone a thorough revamp across both environment and menus, but longstanding fans need worry not: Joya’s perfect pastas are still in plentiful supply… (www.joyarestaurant.co.uk)
GOING wild in the (nearby) country every Tuesday evening at The Inn at Freshford to tuck into a delectable Darcy Pie accompanied by mash, greens and gravy plus a drink for £15. Meanwhile, on the last Thursday of every month, Burger and Malbec night brings two boisterous burgers (plus all the necessary trimmings) and a bottle of Malbec to the table for just £30. Get Inn!

UTTERLY addicted to the terrifically tasty, exceedingly wallet-friendly Chilli Garlic Beef, Duck Penang Curry, Chicken Massamam Curry, Pad Thais, Yellow Curries and pretty much everything else on the menu at the Thai Hut (Green Park Station) dished up from noon-3.30 every Wednesday-Sunday; your search for the ultimate in good mood food ends here.
