It may be way down south, miles from anywhere but the Balham Bowling Club is the best pub ever. It’s pouring with rain and I had to cut an epic breakfast at Little Georgia with Morgs short as the night before I had the stupid idea that Sunday lunch at the B.B.C was a good [...]
When it comes to vintage I think London trumps any other city. Well yes every vintage store sells the same stuff like it’s all sourced from some giant warehouse in the sky but at least it’s all somewhat affordable. LA used to be cheap, not any more, New York is so expensive you’d be better [...]
I honestly can’t think of a better way to waste time than going to an art gallery and sometimes I feel like wasting time and on these occasions I come to the Tate Modern. Having said that the crap of the walls is too painful to bear so I generally bypass it entirely (after [...]
BFI Southbank is kind of a one-stop shop for going out, you can get dinner here, drinks and go to the cinema. It’s the best thing on the Southbank and I thought an appropriate place to go with my Mother as I thought it would be minimal stress as everything was in one place. Well [...]
So it’s been said that it’s a contender for the loveliest gastro pub in London, however gastro pub? It’s nothing of the sort, it doesn’t resemble a pub in any way.

I find it easy to get lost around Waterloo, it’s difficult to negotiate around due to the enormous railway station slap bang in the middle. So on an excursion to check out the Anchor and Hope a highly regarded gastro pub on the Cut (the food may be great but the place itself is a [...]
It’s a food market and an expensive one at that. This is where all the local farmers from around London and stretching as far as Devon and Cornwall come to sell their goods on a Friday and Saturday. You can find every conceivable foodstuff here and it goes without saying that it’s pretty much mostly [...]
I think I’ve mentioned before that Clapham is an area of London generally to be avoided with one of a few exceptions, The Clapham Picture House. Tucked away down a back street this busy little cinema has a bar, comfortable seating area serving food, hosts a film night every Tuesday where those who know the [...]
