I have a date with a lovely young woman this friday night. But this has now turned into a celebration as she has secured a new job. Now im just after a few restaurant ideas in and around the birmingham/solihull area. Also just a few nice touches i could add to make it a memorable night . Over too you!

Forgot to add, she is a veggie and we have been out for food a few times now. We have previously had a thai curry at a nice place and had some rubbish american food too. So looking for something a little different to be honest. cheers.

Blue Mango was recommended to me by some friends, though I've never been. Being an Indian place, there is plenty of vege options- if you do go, be sure to try some paneer tikka!

They also do quite a few wines, 6-7 whiskies and also cocktails, which could be nice if it is a celebration as well.

Alternately, for a totally veggie place, I've eaten at Khazana which was pretty tasty- however I wouldn't consider the setting as ideal for a date.


Moving away from indian food, Simpsons in Edgbaston do a pretty good range of veggie options as well. Place looks quite nice, so would be ideal for a celebratory meal. Food is reasonably priced, though no idea on wine prices as I don't tend to drink the stuff.

Hope that helps.

Has anyone been to Green peppers in the mailbox?

What about Purnells - its also starred like Simpsons and is supposed to be excellent.

Feck all in the way of veggie options and also a fair bit more expensive iirc.

Simpsons and Purnells both look great and places I will definatley try in the future. Not sure about them for tomorrow though. Have either of you guys been the Jam house in St Pauls Sq it has the added bonus of live music after and the menu looks good too.
