Why subscribe?

Smashed is a weekly round up of all the restaurant reviews published in the British national press, offering an easily digestible, real-time snapshot of the UK’s vibrant and diverse dining scene. It also offers a unique and humorous take on the art of restaurant criticism too, gently poking fun at those lucky privileged few with expense accounts. Regular special features include chef and restaurateur interviews as well as articles about the UK restaurant scene. Smashed also incorporates Cookbook Review with reviews of the latest cookbook releases and recipes from the books.

Served in generous, piping-hot portions, Smashed cuts through the richness of the critics’ sometimes overblown prose. It’s fun, it’s informative, it melts in the mouth with it’s unctuous, indulgent, decadent succulence and it’s (currently) free. What on earth are you waiting for?
