Notting Hill is an easy go-to brunch destination, with many options, but you have to come prepared to wait, especially if it’s London, in March, and sunny… There’s always the worry that, after waiting 30-60 minutes for breakfast, you will be disappointed. Lucky for us Granger & Co has a line for a reason. Great…

DIY Mongolian Hot Pot At Little Lamb
If you’re getting a little bored of having food put in front of you ready to eat, then lifting fork to mouth and eating, then Mongolian Hot Pot is the way to spice up your dining experience. While it is customary to go out to eat and relax, Little Lamb offers a oriental dining experience that’s a little DIY,…
Porn Stars & Pearl Necklaces At Beach Blanket Babylon
There’s nothing more fitting on Valentine’s Day than a few naughtily named cocktails and a little innuendo. So on Feb 14 I found myself having a Pearl Necklace at Beach Blanket Babylon, Shoreditch. BBB is one of my favourite destinations for cocktails in Shoreditch, a luxurious respite from the endless grimy pop-ups, whilst still stylish…
BiBimBap – Get It While It’s Hot!
Korean dining is THE “It” food this season so I tried out one of London’s most modern Korean outlets, Bi bim Bap in Soho. The restaurant is named after the signature dish, Bi Bim Bap, a hot stone bowl filled with rice and various toppings (10 topping options to be exact). There are also various…
Blues Kitchen Camden

I was also somewhat disappointed…

London went crazy for macaroons in 2013 (cupcakes are so 2012!) and have adopted them as their own, pushing the French aside. Anges de Sucre founder Reshmi Bennett, returned from France…
Prêt-à-Portea High Tea At The Berkley
It’s unusual for cake and fashion to go together, in fact in many fashion circles cake is the enemy. But not at London’s Berkley Hotel where they’ve finally brought cake and fashion together in a beautiful delicious union. The Prêt-à-Portea high tea changes every season to reflect current catwalk designs. These pictures are the AW12/13 ranges…
Brunch At Brew, Clapham, London
In December I braved the rain and headed to brunch. Clearly London cafes anticipated everyone would have fled or be at the shops, so we were a bit hard up for choices, our first stop being closed. Eventually, drenched, we made it to Brew in Clapham and squeezed our way into a table in the cramped…
BENIHANA, SOHO
Benihana Soho London embodies the excitement of novelty cooking. When you watch your mum cook growing up it’s unremarkable, but throw a Japanese Chef into the mix and it’s an art form.
