Well haven’t I been missing a trick?! – for over a year I’ve been living five minutes’ walk away from a Brunch Powerhouse and didn’t even know it!!! I feel silly. I’m a giver-inner to the brunch movement, as isn’t it just a way of saying you can eat what you want when you want … Continue reading
The Grocery on Kingsland Road packs a Planet Organic food store punch, but what really got my attention was its WINE CORNER. At the rear of the shop you must go, to find an enchanting wine grotto! Equipped with helpful staff, and a tasting machine, serving up AMPLE portions. Leaf symbols on labels throughout the shop denote organic wines, and … Continue reading
The Royal Exchange is a far scarier building from the outside than in. With pricey boutique shops and a doorman, it’s easy to give the place a wide birth, but you can go inside for a look at the lovely building free of charge, and why, why, why would you ever meet someone “at Bank … Continue reading

So when I asked the girl at Leon whether those juices were fresh, and she replied, they’re fresh as of this morning, I could only respond with a dismissive … Continue reading
I had an out-of-towna friend visiting for the weekend, and so a Sunday mooch taking in some London sights was exactly what was called for. Now we didn’t have money to spend, so we went to a market that would keep temptation at bay (exactly what stallholders want to hear), and visited Columbia Road Flower Market – it’s a … Continue reading
I thought I might just learn something about coffee at a “coffee masterclass”, but I wasn’t prepared for the enlightenment, uh oh, I think it’s become another area of life I’ve just got more snobby about.
