An Italian feast at Cardiff's Carluccio's

On a glorious day of sunshine, our reporter Emma Gilbertson decided to have a taste of the Mediterraean at Italian restaraunt Carluccio's

After a glorious day of sunshine and warmer than average temperatures Saturday felt more like the Mediterranean than Cardiff.

People were donning their shorts and maxi dresses and rushing around the shops in an attempt to find out whether or not the latest spring collections included sandals.

My sister and her boyfriend were paying me a weekend visit and in true British style we followed suit and spent the afternoon relaxing under a parasol sipping cocktails.

Puccini's Mediterranean Tapas Lounge

Maybe it’s the rebel in me, but some days the strict conformity of dinnertime in this country is most unappealing.

Eating is not just about getting energy, it’s about friends and family and conversation. So the other day, inspired by the arrival of Spring and a lovely light evening, I took a cue from our continental brethren and trekked to Puccini’s on Albany Road for a spot of Tapas.
