We found ourselves in Hackney last Sunday afternoon, in search of a quick bite, before heading to Hackney Picturehouse cinema. We decided to take a look at Temple of Seitan – a vegan fast food takeaway. With a permanent queue outside the door, it’s hard not to spot. Being a dry, fairly mild day, people…
I’ve lived in Crouch End, North London, for almost three years, and it’s taken me all this time to visit Edith’s House! I must’ve walked past this cafe countless times, not realising what lay behind it’s small door and homely window. It wasn’t until I began to see its decor and food all over Instagram,…

For Christmas, Stew and I were lucky enough to receive tickets for Motown The Musical, at Shaftesbury Theatre. We had been interested in seeing the musical, ever since it first hit the West End. It was a very uplifting and powerful storyline, one I didn’t know before watching the musical, and the soundtrack was brilliant….

Last week I met up with Chloe for a long overdue catch up, over one of my favourite foods – tacos! When she suggested that we head to Breddos Tacos, near Old Street, I jumped at the chance. I had heard of them before, but had never been to their restaurant or tried their tacos…
This year for our birthdays, Stew and I decided to treat each other to our two favourite things – exploring London and FOOD! We dined at Duck & Waffle for Stew’s birthday, and German Gymnasium for mine. German Gymnasium, based in King’s Cross, is part of D&D London – an international group of restaurants, bars…
A couple of week’s ago I enjoyed Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea, at Sanderson Hotel in Soho, London. This was my second time experiencing their Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea, the first was a couple of years ago with my friends from home, who were visiting for the weekend. Fast forward almost two years, and Sanderson have…
