Food Scene
Specialist cheese shop with a difference. Fab freshly prepared food (cheese & meat platters are a specialty), and the best place to get traditional Welsh Cawl (Lamb Stew). Service is slow as the food is cooked to order, but with a drink in your hand, you'll be fine :)

Simply my favourite Indian restaurant in Cardiff. Don't be fooled by the 'vegetarian' bit - you won't miss the meat. Get busy on the weekends, so best to book, but sometimes delivers to the apartment. It doesn't have a license for alcohol, but you can bring your own :)
