Angels with Bagpipes, The Royal Mile, Edinburgh

The Boyfriend and I always like do do something every year to mark the date we went on our first ever date and since this year marked five years we decided to go the extra mile and had a little mini break in Edinburgh. I will write another post about that later but first I…

Suvlaki, Soho

In my family, we have a slight obsession with Greek food. I grew up with Greek-Cypriot neighbours who basically became extended family and the culture/food therefore played quite a big role in mine and my sister’s upbringing. We’re always pretty excited about trying new Greek restaurants. When we heard about Suvlaki, we got there as soon…

Bistro Union, Abbeville Road

A couple of weeks ago I was well overdue a catch up with my sister having not seen each other since before Christmas! So I drove down to Clapham and stayed the weekend. When she suggested we go out for a meal locally as she lives a short walk away from Abbeville Road (well known…

The Fable, Farringdon

When I booked The Fable for mine and The Boyfriend’s anniversary dinner I originally hadn’t planned to blog about it, mainly as it wasn’t so long ago that I visited and blogged about another Drake & Morgan restaurant: The Refinery.

Honest Burgers, Soho

Burger and chips was something that I never really fully appreciated until my visit to Byron a few months ago. I’d always thought it was a bit of a boring option and thought how could a burger and chips really vary that much from place to place….. it turns out, quite a lot! Honest Burgers…

Byron Hamburgers, Spitalfields

The gourmet burger trend is something that really took off in London in 2012, not being a great burger fanatic I didn’t really get massively involved. My adventures into the burger world went as far as going to GBK (there’s a restaurant directly opposite my office) for a naughty lunch occasionally when they had a…

Low Fat Oven Baked Fries

I don’t often have chips at home, but since it was just my Dad and me in for dinner on Saturday night I treated him to steak and chips and I much prefer the home made kind. This is mainly because I don’t like buying anything pre-prepared, especially when it’s really easy to make, but…
