Ponto is pretty good , adventurous decor , interesting menu , and on a Monday at 6-30 it was early busy - mind you could be it’s almost the only one !
Like your favourite shop in Paragon Square? The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
A strange supposition that a modern day traveller would arrive in a city after carrying out no research on his destination? Maybe the traveller had a smart phone and had done some pre-booking, went on Visit Hull etc, maybe read the Sunday Times who recently listed HU1 as one of the 11 coolest postcodes in the UK? Maybe discerned the area around a station isnt always the best part of any city and took a taxi to the old town?
Like these visitors, and those in the comments who have booked to visit Hull on their recommendation.l?
The point I was hoping to get across was about the lack of joined up thinking. The interchange, the hotels on ferensway, the fine dining on prinny Ave, night life in the old town, historical buildings in viccy square, Humber Street and the fruit market cut off by the A63/Castle St.at least they eventually got footbridge access to it now. All nice isolated bits of regeneration done with Grant and aid money, and now the next in line is the east bank of the river hull. Which reminds me that I have never been over the scale lane footbridge.
Don't suppose marinas were seen as much of a leisure feature back in the day, can't have been that many folk with boats to put in it!
Could have been the Venice of the north. To be fair, the revamp of Queens Gardens is looking decent. Despite some warranted criticism. Let's just hope it doesn't become the domain of skanks and skagheads.
Marina and Humber st busy today in the sun . Some cracking new big boats in the dock and two smart new barges I think , wife thought one was mine it was called ‘ Grumpy’ - totally unfounded .
