...we headed out for more exploring and ended up at vegetarian spot Henderson's.
Henderson's has been around since 1962 & has a shop & deli counter, restaurant & bistro. We settled on the bistro for lunch and after some deliberating & drinking my favourite lemonade...
...we ordered a selection of stuff to share. The homemade hummus with local organic bread & flatbreads.
The flatbreads were our favourite of the two & the hummus was perfect, homemade & thick. We also ordered the garlic bread...
...if there's garlic bread on a menu Nick's going to order it & this one certainly didn't disappoint, the bread was perfectly toasted & the garlic wasn't too overpowering. I'm not usually a salad person but I couldn't resist trying this delicious sounding rocket, red onion, squash, sultana, apricot & tofu salad.
 It was certainly one of the best, and most interesting salads I've ever eaten, the onion was deliciously caramelised, the tofu was baked perfectly & I loved the squash. Definitely order this if you visit Henderson's!

It was AMAZING! It had a whole wheat crust & tonnes of perfect sweet cherry filling. Nick went for the trio of flapjacks with a chocolate dipping sauce.
This was equally delicious & the chocolate dipping sauce went perfectly with my cherry pie.
Henderson's is totally awesome - if I lived here I might eat here every day!
We're just relaxing before dinner at the Filmhouse Cafe/Bar, I'm drinking a decaf soya milk cappuccino with a shot of hazelnut syrup...
...yum!
I'll be back tomorrow to tell you all about where we decide to have dinner, have a good evening.
