The Waterfront Restaurant (Perranporth, Cornwall, UK)

Cornwall is a beautiful part of the country, and Perranporth has a beautiful sandy beach and cute town.  If you're in Perranporth, it's worth visiting The Waterfront Restaurant.  We walked in because of it's location (right by the beach), but I would go back because the food was really good.

Review of Frankie & Benny's Restaurant (Southampton, Hants, UK location)

Frankie & Benny's is a chain of restaurants in England that describe themselves as "a New York Italian Restaurant & Bar".  Obviously they are influenced by American and Italian flavors and dishes, but the restaurant is obviously influenced by its English location as well.  The restaurant itself is OK.  The food is nothing memorable or spectacular, but it's edible.  They often run family deals (kids eat free, etc.), so it's a convenient place to stop if you're having a family day out.  This is not somewhere that I'd plan to go to again though.

Abuelo's Food Embassy

In my last post, I mentioned a fantastic Knoxville restaurant that offers great food for vegetarians.  Today's post has the flip side of that coin.  Abuelo's Food Embassy is a Mexican Restaurant located in Farragut (a West Knox suburb).  If you're a vegetarian, this is a restaurant to avoid.  Pretty much the only vegetarian item they serve is the salsa!

Tomato Head Restaurant in Knoxville, TN

the Sunsphere in downtown Knoxville (near Tomato Head)

Being vegetarian, I've had my fair share of going to restaurants that expect me to just eat side orders or have a salad (specially ordered since all of their salads come with meat in them).  Some restaurants, though, serve fantastic vegetarian food that appeals to everyone--vegetarians and meat eaters alike.  One of these restaurants is The Tomato Head in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The Tomato Head is located in central Knoxville in vibrant Market Square.  The restaurant is small but inviting with a patio area out front.  Their food is inventive and addictively delicious.  Just thinking about it makes me wish that I had one of Tomato Head's fantastic vegetarian sandwiches right now.  If you're in the Knoxville area, I highly recommend stopping for a meal at Tomato Head.
