Six By Nico


Hellooo

 I'm back and with my first ever restaurant review!!

 If you know me at all, you'll know I'm the fussiest eater so the thought of going somewhere with a set menu with lots of new things is terrifying! But I decided to challenge myself and try something new and I loved it! Although I was very kindly invited to try the new menu, I wasn't told to say anything in particular! These are all my own opinions and honest reviews! 

 Today we're going to be looking at Six By Nico! They have come over from Scotland and change their menu up every 6 weeks! This menu is called 'The Chippie' and it was inspired by Belfast's Maritime history and our Big Fish! It's running until 14th April so make sure to try it before it's gone!! It's only £28 for the whole menu and it even has snacks for £5! You can also swap out any course for their vegetarian alternative! I've listed the vegetarian options but sadly have no photos!

 Now, let's see the food!

Deep Fried Mars Bar


Caramelia Chocolate / Orange Sorbet / Cocoa Nib

Vegetarian Option: Deep Fried Mars Bar

This was definitely one of, if not THE, fanciest meal I've ever had! 
Even though I was cautious over certain ingredients and meals, they were all delicious! 
I wasn't a huge fan of the fish dishes but I'm not a big fish fan anyway. I did make sure to try each dish and would highly recommend visiting Six By Nico, even if you're a fussy eater like myself!! 
Well, enough rambling, here are the details for Six By Nico and finally..

Cheers!!

Easy Swaps To Become More Eco Friendly

Hiyaa! Back again with some info on becoming more eco-friendly! This is something I'm very passionate about and it's so easy to make a difference! Reusable Water Bottles! Mine is from Chilly's Bottles and is lasting so well. It's made of metal and comes in so many different designs Reusable Coffee Cups!  These are also available from  Chilly's Bottles  or  Keep Cup Metal Straws!  You could even bulk buy paper straws but metal straws are reusable and can get them anywhere. You can even get bent metal straws if that's what you prefer. Have a look on  Amazon  for them here Bamboo Makeup Pads!  These are reusable and you can get loads of them from  Amazon . So handy for taking makeup off and you can just wash them and reuse them again. Another great thing to use to remove makeup is with muslin cloths Cotton Buds!  Instead of stopping using them all together, simply change to cotton buds with paper stems instead of plast...

Happiness

Happiness is something everyone wants but doesn't realise how easy it is to have. So many things bring happiness and if people took more time to appreciate the little things then maybe they would all be a bit happier. This sounds like an angry rant but it's not, it's more of a desperate plea to the world. All I want in life is to be happy. I think a lot of other people share that hope. I don't understand why people will constantly make others sad or angry and just plain unhappy if they themselves want to be happy. Why would you not want others to be happy? By bringing others happiness, it usually makes us feel happier so why wouldn't you do it. I don't understand why people can be so mean and cruel to each other. I'm not talking about wars and terrorist attacks, although whats up with them?!! I mean plain and simple bullying. Most people have been bullied and most people bully others, sometimes without even meaning to. And I hate that this is the world we ...

The Scary Scary Future

It can't be just me that's scared by the future right? I'm constantly thinking about when i'm older and what job I'll have or where I'll live and what my new day-to-day plans will be. I'm so excited to find out all about future Charis and what her life will be like, but I'm also quite scared. What if it's not what I want, what if I'm not happy or I just settled in a job or relationship where I'm not happy? (I don't see myself settling for something where I'm not happy, but you never know) Will I still be obsessed with social media? Will I have made more short films? Will I have finally created a photography portfolio??? So many questions, but no answers. I'm a great planner, I love to plan things, especially unrealistic things. I love to dream up silly ways to be discovered and become successful. But I know that I won't just be walking down the street and someone will shout and offer me my dream job, I know that. I just...
