00:00Birmingham is home to a huge range of restaurants from independent cafes to Michelin-starred
00:06dining. With so much choice, we wanted to know which places stand out to the people
00:12who eat here most. We took to the streets to find out where Brummies love to go for
00:17food.
00:18Oh, goodness. It depends who I'm with and what the occasion is. Been to places like
00:25Six by Nico, which was really cool, a nice themed restaurant, a bit quirky, a bit different.
00:31But I've been to Indian Brewery, which is fantastic Indian street food, which is really
00:37cool. So if you're going with work and we're just going there for a quick lunch and bite
00:42to eat, that's great too.
00:43Excuse me. So yeah, it just depends what the occasion is, really.
00:49Personally, for me, I would say Soho Tavern. It's a chain of desi pubs and they do amazing
00:57mixed grills, which I think is great for everybody because you can get vegan ones as well. And
01:03I'm vegan, so I can also enjoy a vegan mixed grill. Yeah.
01:08If you're looking for steak, which is my favourite, then there's the Brazilian place that's down
01:16in Brindley Place, which is great because you can just literally have as much as you
01:20want by having a green card or a red card. Green says go, red says no. And that's a great
01:26place. You can have as much as you want there. That's a nice place. And they've got other
01:29restaurants, Italian restaurants around there.
01:31One of my favourite places is Wagamama's, just because I like noodles. It's all about
01:39me. There's a few places to be fair. I feel like Birmingham's quite centralised against
01:43the youth and the community as to what they like, Instagram. So I know that there's a
01:48lot of hidden bars and hidden gems in Birmingham, such as Aura Lounge, which is down the road.
01:52They have quite a big cuisine. But yeah, I feel like it's quite versatile in Birmingham.
