Ego Maniac

We all love a good offer and this is one not to be missed out on.

Ego Mediterranean Restaurant is a collection of eateries specialising in delicious seasonal food inspired by the Mediterranean and all the delights it has to offer. At present there are eight branches, with one in Lichfield and another in Coventry and the remainder are all located up in the north west.

I've been a few times recently to Ego Lichfield and on each occasion taken advantage of very good offers. By visiting their website and signing up to email updates you become an Ego Club Member and are sent all the latest offers. Offers so far have ranged from 40% off your total food bill that can be used every night except after 5pm on a Saturday and special themed nights and a free three course meal when visiting with another person who purchases a full priced main course.

Even if you're not part of the club you can still benefit from 2 for 1 on Bellini's between 4pm-7pm.

My food pick would be the sharing boards, perfect for a lunch or a great starter to share for dinner. Me and Sean shared the Spanish board (there is also Italian and Greek). On the Spanish one you get "pan fried chorizo in red wine, Serrano ham, calamari, roasted garlic aioli, Andalucian olives and Manchego cheese wedges". We scoffed it whilst looking out over Minster Pool and Lichfield Cathedral, although I didn't get too carried away with the scenic views, needed to keep my eye on Sean and make sure the sharing aspect of the board was adhered to, especially where the calamari was concerned.
