I went to Gaucho, the beautiful Liverpool restaurant from BBC This City is Ours, and had the best brownie ever
Ever since watching This City is Ours, my mum has wanted to go to Gaucho. The stunning restaurant on Water Street was a prominent filming location in the hit BBC series, featuring as the place Diana worked.
We visited at 5.00pm on Friday for an early tea and the venue is honestly just as beautiful as we had expected, with high ceilings, a stunning bar, lovely booths and plenty of cosy tables. They have more than 100 wines available too and tons of cocktails and mocktails, and we went for a rosé and a rhubarb mocktail, which were gorgeous.

It was my first time trying celeriac and it was honestly delicious, kind of like a celery crossed with a potato. It came with truffle mushrooms too which were divine.
Even though Gaucho focuses on steak, the veggie and vegan options are great and they even have a vegan brownie with white chocolate ice cream for dessert. Obviously, we both had to order one and it was the highlight of the meal for me.
The service is brilliant and the whole venue is stunning, with a gorgeous private dining area and even the toilets are Instagram-worthy. While it definitely isn't cheap, it's well worth a visit and is the perfect place for a special occasion or just for pretending you're a BBC star.
