It never really occurred to us that high-end restaurants do set menu deals for certain websites. Yes, we get bombarded with offers in our inbox but to be honest, we don’t usually have… Continue reading
A couple of weeks ago, a package landed on Saff’s desk. A sturdy black box with a big fancy scarlet ribbon and a sticker that simply read ‘It’s all about me!’ As it… Continue reading
The late May bank holiday should have been an exciting and happy long weekend. It was Saff’s birthday with loads of celebratory meals booked and of course three days off from the day… Continue reading
Two very exciting things happened when I visited Sticks’n’Sushi’s latest branch in the new Crossrail development at Canary Wharf. Firstly it was cloaked in grey – one of my favourite colours, just like… Continue reading
Joe’s Southern Kitchen has a new outpost! Not content with just having their central Covent Garden location, they have ventured a little further north to Kentish Town. We were lucky enough to be… Continue reading
I’m going to start with the opening sentence from the menu. ‘Inspired by the Café Royal Cocktail Book compiled in 1937, the Green Bar at Hotel Café Royal is a vibrant cocktail destination’.… Continue reading
There are a few things I learnt this week. 1) The SpongeBob SquarePants movie is terrible. 2) Kiwi Chef Peter Gordon (of Kopapa fame, of which we’re big fans) has been working with… Continue reading
We’ve written a guest post about Bill’s for Bluewater shopping centre‘s food blog: One of the latest restaurant openings at Bluewater is the slightly eccentric and quirky Bill’s. If you haven’t eaten in… Continue reading
It takes a lot to excite us, there are countless new bar openings in London and to be honest, most of them look just like the last one. But then Cahoots happened and… Continue reading
We don’t want to sound naive but up until a year or so ago we hadn’t tried any Peruvian food at all. All that I knew is that a friend of mine went… Continue reading
London’s overrun with burger restaurants, surely there’s no room for any more, right? Well apparently we need another, but not another US import or those that have graduated from a street food background,… Continue reading
We all know the saying ‘they look too good to eat’. Well the cakes at Cutter & Squidge definitely fall into that category. Luckily they also fall into the ‘taste far too good… Continue reading
When Gordon Ramsay‘s Union Street Café popped up on our work doorstep we couldn’t believe our luck. There was a huge buzz about the opening, rumours of David Beckham being involved and miscommunication… Continue reading
As we walked through the doors of Mayfair’s Bocconcino Charlotte (10) turned to me and mouthed: ‘It’s posh!’ As we took our coats off we admired the sweeping metal spiral staircase from the… Continue reading
The trend for Japanese food just doesn’t seem to be slowing down. Existing restaurants are opening additional branches, pop-ups are getting permanent sites and new launches are, if anything, gaining momentum. One of… Continue reading
I commute to London every day, Monday to Friday and have done so for nearly two decades. But there’s still so much of this great city that Saff and I haven’t experienced. Yes,… Continue reading
By some weird coincidence we revisited the revamped Cucina Asellina at the plush celeb haunt ME London hotel exactly two years after the first visit. Although when I say we, I mean my… Continue reading
I’ve often perched at the bar at Tapas Revolution in Bluewater. Either by myself for a sweet glass of café bombón coffee (for a mid-shop boost), with the kids for a churros treat… Continue reading
We never need an excuse to visit Shake Shack in Covent Garden. But when we found out The ShackMeister was making its UK debut we were there in a flash. The ShackMeister is… Continue reading
