curating memorable experiences around the world
In case you haven't realised by now, Asian food is my absolute fave. From noodles to dim sum and BBQ, there's nothing that I won't touch. So with it being Chinese New Year, I just had to hit up Yauatcha Soho for their 8-course feast. It is Year of the pig, after all... This was my [...]
Haven't heard of Kalifornia Kitchen? Have you been living under a rock? ICYMI, the pink-hued vegan restaurant opened up in Fitzrovia back in November and has been something of a staple on Instagram feeds ever since. So naturally, I had to grab my veggie mate and get my ass down to see what all the fuss [...]
You may have noticed that it's been a while since I've had a cocktail-fuelled night out. A lack of funds, shitty weather and generally not being able to handle a bottle of fizz like I could pre-NYE has meant that January has been far drier than I'd like. Luckily for me, Mr Fogg's came to [...]
‘Tis the season to wine and dine, right? I can’t even tell you how much I’ve eaten over the last few days and if that wasn’t enough, I kicked things off with a fancy Christmas dinner at Fancy Crab last week. Located on Marylebone’s Wigmore Street, the seafood-centric spot has gone all out this season. With an entrance [...]
I You can’t beat Soho on the weekend... or any time of week, really. There’s a buzz that you just don’t seem to get anywhere else in London and that’s why I spend so many evenings in a bar or restaurant this side of town. Yesterday, it was Las Banderas; the West End outpost of [...]
If there’s one restaurant that’s been giving all the others a run for their money in the pasta stakes, it’s Lina Stores. Haven’t heard of the Soho eatery? Well you have now. Opened only months ago by the delicatessen that’s been serving Londoners since 1944, this new eatery is all about good food, great service [...]
Ahh, my beloved Old Compton Street. Home to Bar Swift aka my favourite watering hole in London, the Italian-inspired Bar Termini and super sexy La Bodega Negra. I could probably spend a whole day on this one street... as long as that day ends with an oozy custard bun from Bun House. But now there's [...]
It's been a good few weeks since I wrote anything on the blog! I recently got a new job where I spend all day writing, so when the clock hits 5.30pm, the last thing I want to do is more work. But all this warm weather has got me thinking back to sunny days dining [...]
Let me tell you a little about the best brunch I've had so far in 2018... I'm sure you've heard of Bun House. It's the cute Chinese place in Soho, serving delicious bao buns. If you haven't seen the Custard ones plastered on my Instagram, then chances are you've spotted them on someone else's. Tea [...]
There is a new wave of Italian restaurants taking over the city. Last week saw the opening of not one, but two Italian joints in central London. In Soho, we have Pastaio - the much hyped venture from Stevie Parle of Palatino and Rotorino. North of this Carnaby venue, is also La Tagliata. Following on from [...]
