Tapas Launch Party

Last night I was invited to independent restaurant Same Same But Different in Bath, to celebrate the launch of their new tapas menu. The intimate event saw an array of local faces and media types, so it was a great chance to meet some fellow 'foodies', who understood my need to take lots of photos of the food! We enjoyed a complimentary a Kia Royale upon arrival, and our glasses were duly topped up throughout the evening. The service at Same Same is as friendly and personal as you could hope for, so you truly feel like part of the family.

We couldn't have asked for a more generous hospitality, and left feeling pretty stuffed - that's pretty unusual for events like this! 

Same Same is a great place to visit for a cosy evening sharing some tapas, but it's also one of our favourite breakfast destinations, serving a killer Eggs Benedict. Last year they won two awards at the Bath Good Food Awards, for Best Cafe and Best Up-And-Coming Chef. Despite such recognition, it remains one of those places that's always filled with regular faces, and feels slightly off radar. So if you're feeling a bit fed up of identical soulless chains, Same Same is the perfect antidote, providing something a little...well, different.

Check out their website and be sure to add it to your list of places to eat when you're next in Bath.
