2015 was an incredible year and I got to eat some spectacular food. Here is a list of what I feel were the highlights (in no particular order): Please excuse the awful punctuation, I am trying to keep it brief; you can always read the full review of a particular venue by clicking on the links.
I'm going to do this over six sections, the first five sections will be 25 places to eat and the last section will be something different.
Here we go with part 2, the next five places to eat :)

Superb setting, with the best Moules Mariniere that my Mum and I have ever tasted. Loved the open kitchen too.

The Farmhouse, Mackworth.

For a dish that has the wow factor you have to try the Chateaubriand. It tastes as good as it looks too.
