Purnell's Bistro (Colmore Business District)

• Quality food but the waiters had no clue of what they were doing or who ordered what
• Buy hey could be an honest mistake until they mixed up my friends order with the table next to ours and had to wait 15 minutes for her food to be remade
• The waiter just picked the plate up and took it without apologising or even telling me how long for my new dish to arrive or whether he was just going to reheat it
• Anyway the food was gorgeous shame about the staff waiting the tables
• Rustic home cooking with an eclectic twist&rsquo
• The drinks menu is what draws a great deal of the venue&rsquo
• Bread and butter puddings are presented in dainty ways and brush shoulders with more exotic ingredients hailing from further afield
• One classic example is English chicken thigh with polenta
• Introduced to Zomato by my new found foodie Spice it up with Sam I was inspired to write down a few lines on my lunch at Purnells Bistro
• It did make for a good environment to get acquainted with Mr Sam and hear about his fascinating travels and eating without the need to shout from a distance of three feet
• My first thought on the menu was that we may need to go for a top up meal staight after I was not surprised therefore
• To hear that Sam was sitting in a curry house no less than fours after we finished lunch
• You sample the wines which are equally delightful
• I had the Lamb croquette with split beans and mint wonderfully tasty
• Know that there is whole world of food out there
