What Jade Graham likes about Fat Olives:
Went out for a last minute dinner with the husband and as it was my choice we came here, I've been wanting to come for ages. The lady looking after us was lovely and the food!!!! I had the ravioli to start and the Rosti, both beautifully cooked. I started off with the soufflé for pudding but swapped over and much preferred the husband's!! Looking forward to my next visit!
