Foodilic: lunchtime superstars
Having moved office to Kings Cross earlier this year, I was slightly overwhelmed by the range of lunch options that now sat (quite literally) on my doorstep. Kings Cross is a treasure trove for lunch and dinner solutions to match all budgets, from the beautiful setting of Coal Drops Yard, to the cheapest pizza in … Continue reading Foodilic: lunchtime superstars
Bob Bob Ricard
You know how London provides a plethora of delicious restaurants that constantly come recommended but often with that ££££ warning on TripAdvisor?

The sweet simplicity of afternoon tea
There are many reasons I love afternoon tea, apart from the obvious fact that it passes as a meal and mostly consists of gorging yourself on gluten, dairy and tea!

I'm a sucker for a great burger and with so much choice … Continue reading The best veggie burger in London

Let’s talk about halloumi
What did the cheese say when it looked in the mirror? ... Halloumi! (Sorry I really like cheese puns, it can brie very annoying) I'm just going to do a bit of a roundup post from this month as I have been literally obsessed with halloumi this month. A few months ago I started to … Continue reading Let’s talk about halloumi
