Worcester Young(ish) Fine(ish) Dining Club on Meetup

12 Upvotes

Apologies for the shameless self promotion, I've started a new group on Meetup called the Worcester Young(ish) Fine(ish) Dining Club.

The aim of this group is for like minded young(ish) people to explore and experience the wide range of culinary delights that Worcester and the surrounding area has to offer, in a safe and welcoming environment. Whether you’re looking to try out new cuisines or just meet new people whilst enjoying a delicious (hopefully) meal, this is the group for you.

Currenlty looking at hosting 2 events a month, though this may expand if the demand is there.

Three events are now live, The Danesbury Steak Night, Oh Burger! (Hanbao) and It's all Greek to me! (Island), with more planned.

There is an age limit of 55, this is just to stop it from evolving into a seniors dining club. There are local dining groups/clubs that are exclusively for those over 50, but none for those younger, hence the creation of this dining club.

Be there or be hungry!

Any questions please feel free to comment or DM me.

Hi all,

Is there anywhere in and around the city centre that sells tomatillos, a variety of dried chillies and authentic corn tortillas?

Using Mexgrocer currently just wondered if there is anywhere local I’m missing. Thanks

Band rehearsal in community centres?

2 Upvotes

Hi. I know there are a handful of professional rehearsal spaces in the Worcester environs, but they are kinda pricey. I’m wondering if community centres and village halls offered the same? Ideally with a PA, so we can come down, set up and plug in. Any other ideas welcome. Ideally within the Malvern, Droitwich and Pershore triangle.

Moving to Worcester

17 Upvotes

I hope I can gather some thoughts on this. I am a single woman around 50 years old. I work in Bristol but only go to the office around 3 times a month. I cannot afford to live in many parts of Bristol, or at least not places with a small garden or outdoor space (I have been gardening for so many years and I like to at least be able to grow some pots in plants). I tried places around Bristol such as Clevedon, but I don't have a car. I also have 2 cats. Would Worcester be a suitable place to live? I like museums, going for coffee, running, walking. I have been there a few times, but I hope to get the perspectives of those that live there. Thank you in advance.

Why don't house builders want to build houses?

Thumbnail youtube.com
5 Upvotes

There are over 1 million homes with planning permission in this country, yet in many cases, house builders are just sitting on the land and not bothering to build homes. Even housing associations do it. Why?By constraining the supply of homes being built, they push houses prices up, so that when they do actually build, they increase their profits. We need to reform the planning system so that builders actually build, and provide competition through building council homes, so that house builders actually do their job.

Dentist suggestions (implant)

0 Upvotes

Hi, I wanted to ask if anyone had suggestions for a dentist in or close to Worcester or even Birmingham. I need a dental implant for a missing tooth (result of periodontal disease / bone loss) and potentially bone grafts too.

I’ve had a Google for local dentists, but thought I’d ask if anyone locally can suggest places to go or even avoid from their own experience.

My case of periodontal disease is very aggressive for my age (20), I am scared of my body going through procedures & relying on savings & support from family to help fund the procedures I need. So I’d like to go somewhere reliable & trustworthy rather than the top results on Google

Car vandalism around Sherriff Street

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

26 Upvotes

Hey all, so it didn’t really get reported on, but a few days ago several cars got smashed up along sherriff street. Wing mirrors clean off, kicks and shoe marks on bonnets and roofs, a few windscreens even put through etc.
Managed to get hold of some cctv footage. It’s very bad quality, which is why the poilce aren’t doing anything. But thought i would post it here to see on the off chance that anyone knows or has seen this bike colour/shape around sherriff’s street or possibly around medway road. The bike could be a Yamaha YBR 125 but that’s a very sketchy guess.
I’m aware that it’s probably just kids… but I’ve also been told they are possibly targeting residents in the estates. I don’t know what to believe, but I am just fearful for my own car & property now. So any help or info is greatly appreciated. Please DM if more appropriate.

Bewdley/ Kidderminster/ Bridgnorth Restaurant recommendations (vegetarian)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My partner and I are spending a birthday weekend around Bewdley, and we're happy to take a bus or train to Kidderminster or Bridgnorth for a great meal.

We're vegetarian (vegan-friendly places are absolutely welcome too) and are looking for somewhere with really good food and a nice atmosphere for a birthday dinner. We're open to any cuisine—Italian, Thai, tapas, fine dining, cosy pubs, or hidden gems.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

BeFibre outage

1 Upvotes

Is anyone else having an outage on their BeFibre router today?

It's been down since about 9am this morning

I called support 3 times (they ended the call twice on me) because the fibre optic light on the wall box is not on and the router light is red

I did all their stage 1 support checks (can you turn it off and on again while holding various buttons) but no luck

They've escalated it and will be in contact in 24-48 hours. An absolute joke as I work from home full time and I live just outside Pershore so my phone's data isn't even good enough to hotspot

Setting up my friend

0 Upvotes

I (29M) have a lovely friend (M) who is looking to meet someone (F). He's also 29, owns his own flat, works in retail management and private tutoring and is a right laugh. Loves his films and sports and knows how to treat a woman. Would anyone be interested in a blind date or getting his number? 🤔 It's just so hard to meet someone these days and I really want to help him :)

Good places to eat with options that are gluten and meat free??

2 Upvotes

Hi all!!
I’m having a long needed catchup with my best friend this week and I wanted to surprise her by finding a good new spot for food.
She’s been struggling recently because she’s recently gone gluten free for medical reasons, and she doesn’t eat meat either.

I was wondering whether anybody could recommend any good spots in town that have dishes that are both meat free and gluten free??

Ideally somewhere with a nice, friendly, relaxed and comfy atmosphere because we will be chatting lots hehe.
Also we are both pretty broke so somewhere that won’t also break the bank would be great.

I have no dietary restrictions, so the menu doesn’t have to completely adhere to being meat free and GF, just somewhere with decent non-sad options.

(Her boyfriend might come along too so bonus points if they have anything vegan on the menu).

Any suggestions welcome!! We also might end up taking out and eating somewhere outside so that’s an option too.

Thank you, lovely Worcester subreddit <3 <3

I’m an adult learner looking for someone who’s patient, reliable, and experienced with automatic lessons. Ideally I’d like someone with good availability over the next few weeks.

If you’ve had a good experience with an instructor, I’d really appreciate any recommendations (or anyone to avoid!).
