Reading Roars!

I was back at Zero Degrees last night, a bar rapidly becoming my favourite in Reading.

My partner was peckish, so we headed to the restaurant section. We opted to have two appetisers only: bruschetta (£3.75) and garlic bread with shallots.  They were very good!  Plus, I was drinking Pale Ale, so even better.

My partner is a bit of a bruschetta fan and she said that the dish, and in particular the basil and green pesto dressing, was excellent.  She also praised the presentation.  I personally loved the cherry tomatoes.  I’m now feeling inspired to produce something similar in my kitchen.

The garlic bread was fantastic with the shallots, which added an element of sweetness.

We will return another time for something a little more substantial.  I hear the pizzas, baked in a traditional wood-burning oven, are very good (the Mango Tandoori Chicken pizza looks interesting).
