Aspendos, Kent 🍴🥙 🇹🇷

🇬🇧 This transition period towards the end of the COVID-19 lockdown has still some restrictions on the activities of restaurants and the hospitality sector in general. We can eat at restaurants but only in outdoor spaces and this restricts the number of options available for eating out, especially because the weather is not yet fully in the summer season.

Or at least … Continue reading Nando’s 🍗🍟🇵🇹
