Looking for a unique way to spend a delicious day in Cardiff? Check out our Private Cardiff Lunch & Landmarks Tour! It’s the perfect blend of sightseeing, storytelling, and scrumptious bites.
One guest recently raved:
"A delight. Our guide was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable about Cardiff and the local cuisine. The idea of each course of a meal being eaten at a different location is ingenious."
The tour highlights Welsh culinary gems, with a main course at the Welsh House. Here, you’ll tuck into a hearty bowl of traditional Welsh cawl, served with fresh bread and local cheese. We usually suggest a crisp Welsh cider or ale to pair with your meal, but when one guest asked for iced tea (not on the menu), the friendly staff whipped one up—and it was a hit! Diolch yn fawr!
Our food safari takes you through Cardiff’s iconic city centre and Cardiff Bay, sampling the best Welsh and international flavors. Each stop has been chosen not just for its delicious food, but for its heritage and charm.
Along the way, you’ll wander past Cardiff’s beautiful parks and iconic landmarks, including Cardiff Castle, the Principality Stadium, the Millennium Centre, and the Senedd Building. The journey ends with breathtaking views at Cardiff Bay.
Find out more on the Loving Welsh Food website and get ready to feast your way through Cardiff!

Have you seen the new animated series The Golden Cobra on BBC 3? The one- line description is as follows - “Animated comedy set in the worst takeaway in Ebbw Vale”. It’s getting mixed reviews – see what you think!
It's great to see our own Ieuan Rhys featuring in the cast as the inimitable PC Crabtree.

Ieuan works with us a guide, enjoying a job where he is paid to eat (and walk!) and also hosts our Taste of Wales evening - here he is leading the crowd in a rousing version of a Tom Jones favourite!
We still have a few tickets left for our evenings in September and October. It's a fabulous evening out held in the fantastic surroundings of The Welsh House, Cardiff – celebrating all things Welsh. It’ll definitely bring a smile to your face!

Happy International Bacon Day
2 quotes that we like
1. Happy people live longer. Bacon makes you happy. Therefore bacon makes you live longer.
2. You’re just like bacon. You make everything better.
This is a delicious traditional Welsh recipe showcasing bacon – simple to make and delicious! What’s not to love. Like a lot of our Welsh recipes, the name is a bit misleading. The recipe takes a lot more than 5 minutes ( maybe it’s referring to the prep time), but definitely worth it!
Tatws Pum Munud (Serves 2) ( Five minute potatoes).
• Potatoes - 4 medium, thinly sliced
• Onions - 1 medium, thinly sliced
• Back Bacon - 4 rashers, diced
• Stock (whichever you fancy, I mainly use chicken) - about 300ml or so
Fry the bacon well in a deep frying pan and let it 'catch' a little on the bottom of the pan
Remove the bacon leaving the fat behind, then add the onions to soften for a few minutes
Add the sliced potatoes and plenty of black pepper (no salt needed!) to the pan and mix through, then scatter the bacon over the top
Add the stock so that it comes a centimetre or two below the bacon
Simmer for about 25 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through and most of the liquid is gone – or you can bake in the oven for a good 30 minutes.
Enjoy – mwynhewch.

Caraway Cake or Shearing Cake (Cacen Gneifo) is a traditional Welsh recipe containing caraway seeds and lemon that was made to be enjoyed by the farm hands and workers at the end of a hard day of shearing sheep - a messy and arduous task.
Even if you aren't working with sheep today, why not treat yourself to a slice of Shearing Cake....
Here's the recipe!
340g self-raising flour
225g salted butter
225g caster sugar
4 eggs
1 lemon
4 tsps caraway seeds
¼ tsp nutmeg
3 tbsp milk
Put the butter and the sugar into a mixing bowl and cream together until pale and fluffy. Beat the eggs and add them gradually to the mixture. Add the flour and fold in carefully. Add the zest of the lemon, the lemon juice and the caraway seeds. Add the milk and mix until the mixture is wet enough to drop off the spoon.
Put the mixture into a greased and lined cake tin and back in a preheated oven (190c gas mark 5) for 50 – 60 minutes.
If you divide the mixture into smaller cake tins, they will need less cooking.
