The thing I find with pizza is, I can never find exactly the one I want on the menu. I usually buy a frozen pizza from the store, a nice thin crust margarita pizza and pile on all sorts of ingredients, peppers, onions, mushrooms maybe extra cheese, that’s how I like my pizza. Pizza East [...]
I was the ‘maid of honour’ at my friends wedding the other day. It was the best wedding I’ve ever been to. No unnecessary fuss or ugly floral decorations. There were 3 guests in total, one of which was the photographer. It was at Hackney Town hall and on entering we were ushered into the [...]
I can tell you this, there aren’t many places like this left in Soho, talk about out of place! It’s like the Loreli in the sense I have walked past it a million times amazingly failing to notice how special it is. It’s so easy to get caught up going to places like Busaba bloody [...]
A tiny little place but with just wonderful food. It’s cliched to say, I know, but it’s like eating in someone’s kitchen, in a good way though, what I’m saying is that the food has been cooked with love. There is a plentiful selection of African masks and trinkets convincing arranged to help you forget [...]
On discovering 19 Numara Bos Cirrik I came back seven times in two weeks. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. What can I say? just that the food here is unbelievably good. It’s so fresh and tasty, they bring an incredible onion salad doused with a sweet pomegranate syrup and warm chewy Turkish [...]
It’s been said that Gourmet San is the best Chinese food outside of China. However as Chinese food varies massively from region to region it is probably more apt to say that it’s the best Szechuan food outside of China. It’s authentic in more ways that one. It’s minimalist and back to basics by way [...]
It was after talking to the King of Soho, Sebastian Horsley that I decided to try out the Lorelei as it’s one of Sebastian’s favourites. I’d walked past it countless times without it registering, mainly because it always looked closed and I never trust places in Soho that aren’t widely known. Well the Lorelei as [...]
A night out with Drage is one of my favourite ways to spend an evening. He’s the perfect male, just effeminate enough to not only cite but tell the difference between good jeans and lesbian jeans, yet you wouldn’t catch him standing in front of a mirror, feet turned slightly inwards pulling at the corners [...]
The appeal lies in the bright garnet-coloured walls and vast menu of delicious Russian dishes. Looking over the menu I realise that like Mexican, Russian food appears to be basically more or less 10 different ingredients in 40 different combinations. The food comes quick and it’s simply cooked yet totally delicious and super cheap. I’m [...]
It’s quite possible that the best Mexican restaurant in the world is located on Westbourne Park Road, ok perhaps this is a bit of an exaggeration but it is one of the original Mexican restaurants in London and it’s still my favourite. Now there are many, Wahaca is great but it’s a chain and a [...]
I consider Clapham a bit of a desert of good places to go. It’s where Australians on their two year visa and people from Edinburgh live, staying only a couple of years before they move on. There appears to be countless classless bars where people can get so drunk that their surroundings are irrelevant. Gastro [...]
