This week's Review of the Week is another tale of redemption - at hungryhouse HQ we are all suckers for happy endings.

Sweet Lemon get a lot of enthusiastic positive reviews, so it's interesting to see how they handle themselves when they get something wrong for a change. The answer appears to be graciously and with free popadoms, as Josh was happy to learn.

Josh wins a £25 hungryhouse voucher for sharing his story and reminding us that even when everything doesn't go perfectly at first, there's always hope!

Let's face it, when looking at a restaurant menu it's not always easy to imagine what the dishes are like. While occasionally blind ordering can be a fun game (albeit a risky one), in general it's far better to have an idea what you're going to get before you actually order it. This is where the hungryhouse food glossary comes in.

This week's Review of the Week winner started with a spark of desire for change, and ended up with a meal that, despite a literal bump in the road, was flawless. Ordering on the fly (or drive), precisely-timed delivery, lovingly-cooked food – the whole thing like clockwork. She even managed to make good use of the garnishes that topped the dishes.

This week's customer profile is extra special because we're profiling not one member of our community, but a young family of three. A few weeks back, we found out that the spicy kick from a Bengal Pavilion curry helped to bring new life into the world – Alfie.

We wanted to know how he and his parents were doing since then, and it turns out hungryhouse had the opportunity to bring about some Valentine's romance for these new parents...

This week's Review of the Week winner has been a regular patron of “the mighty Jeera” for quite some time now, but this is the first time he's been moved to rhyme. As it turns out, some curry from this restaurant and some wine equal a great night that ends in clean plates and seriously satisfied stomachs.

Ordering in is particularly great when you've got a few friends over and everyone wants to throw in for a feast. But splitting bills can be time-consuming and frustrating. Luckily, by ordering online you can bypass the calculator and confusion. Instead, let hungryhouse split the bill for you.

Going to a restaurant on Valentine's Day can be pretty painful. A crowded dining room and a marked-up limited menu just don't sound like the makings of a romantic meal. Luckily, there's a better way to make your Valentine's Day dinner really special – think flickering candles, soft music, your favourite wine, and a scrumptious meal with no mess (and no pressure on your cooking skills).

The only challenge left is choosing the perfect dishes to order for the occasion. We've come up with a couple of ideas that will tempt the taste buds and get you in the mood for love...

Perfect sweet and sour chicken balls are hard to find – they're often too sweet or too spicy, have too much batter or too little sauce... This week's Review of the Week winner has found a restaurant that has really figured out this classic Chinese takeaway dish – and it arrived in less time than it takes to have a cuppa.

We're really excited this week, because our founders, Shane and Tony, won a BT Essence of the Entrepreneur award for hungryhouse.

Shane went along to a star-studded event at the Oxo Tower (by the River Thames), and collected our award from none other than Peter Jones. Perhaps the best bit, though, is that all the winners got to be photographed by legendary photographer, Rankin.

This year, a lot of the winners were companies like us, whose success is driven by technological innovation. Some great ideas include a company making wild jelly shapes -- any design you'd like -- and a traditional fruit stall with a twist.
