Review: Hide Above

We had a restaurant reservation for quite a while to go to the acclaimed Hide Above restaurant by Ollie Dabbous, in Green Park. With everything going on with COVID, we really weren’t sure if we should still go, but we decided to go via taxi to minimise interactions and to hope that the restaurant would […]

Review – El Pollote, Seven Dials

I really like Seven Dials Market, and not just cos its a stone’s throw away from my work. It’s actually an ex-banana warehouse, but instead of this just being a footnote in history, the market actually celebrates these beginnings by plastering a banana motif over just about everything.

Review – Coal Office

The Coal Office is a collaboration between designer Tom Dixon and chef Assaf Granit, based in Granary Square in Kings Cross, that touts itself as a “food and design playground”. As a fan of Tom Dixon, and a superfan of mediterranean cuisine, making a trip to this restaurant was an absolute no brainer. A couple […]

Review – Circus

This week, I went to Circus with my friends Julia and Sabrina, a bar and restaurant in London’s Covent Garden with a twist. Yep, you’re not just there for food and drinks but to watch a whole show of acrobatic meets burlesque flair. In fact, if you are a big enough party, you can book […]

Review: Duck + Waffle

I’m going to keep this post short and sweet. Duck + Waffle is a London institution. serving food 24 hours of almost every goddamn day, it’s also situated at the 40th floor of a very tall building on London’s Bishopsgate. Don’t go if you’re afraid of heights! Oh and spoiler alert, it’s most well-known for […]
