Congo Rapids Adventure Golf courses in East Anglia

Visiting two new Adventure Golf courses in East Anglia

While recently visiting friends and family in East Anglia we headed along to two relatively new Mini Golf courses. Both are Congo Rapids Adventure Golf layouts, with one at Norwich Family Golf Centre in Norfolk and the other at Ufford Park Hotel in Melton, near Woodbridge in Suffolk.

Unfortunately the weather and time wasn't on our side in either visit, however both courses looked really good and there were a number of obstacles and features we hadn't seen before.

Congo Rapids Adventure Golf in Norwich was the 732nd course we've visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, while Congo Rapids Adventure Golf in Woodbridge became the 736th course visited since 2006.

A hidden plaque in Woodbridge

On a recent trip to Woodbridge, Suffolk we had a walk along the banks of the River Deben. With our eyes always peeled for interesting things we noticed an old plaque on a shelter.

We really enjoyed our visit to Woodbridge. We've been to pubs and restaurants in the town before, but had never had a wander there. We're looking forward to returning again.

Please Keep Of The Flower Beds

Having read Viz comic for many years I always thought the correct way of saying it was 'Please Keep Off Of'.

Gluten free at the Black Tiles Restaurant & Bar

A visit to the Black Tiles Restaurant & Bar in Woodbridge.

Over the years I have provided a number of gluten free food reviews to Travel Gluten Free and the site recently let me know they'd been contacted by the Black Tiles Restaurant & Bar to tell them about their gluten free menu.

We're always searching for new places to visit and often head back to Emily's home town of Ipswich, and Woodbridge is right next to it.

Last weekend we booked a table for a lunch and looked forward to giving the food a try.

There's a lot to choose from on the gluten free menu. I decided to go for one of my favourites, the Slow roast pork belly, bubble & squeak, apple sauce and crackling.

I noticed chips were also on the gluten free menu, and ever vigilant of potential cross-contamination risks, asked how they were cooked. Without hesitation the waitress let me know that they were cooked in a separate fryer to avoid cross-contamination. I ordered a portion as a treat as it's not often I get to eat chips in restaurants.

After a filling meal I wasn't going to have a dessert, but as Emily and her sister Jo both ordered puddings I decided to have an Eton Mess too. And I'm glad I did.

The food and service was very good and the pub was nice. We'd return for another meal.

Check out the Black Tiles Restaurant & Bar website and the gluten free menu.
