Now I know I said that I wouldn’t mention parks and the only reason I mention Hampstead Heath is because I got lost there the other day trying to find Kenwood House with Drage who wouldn’t admit he had no idea where he was going. Well I decided that on a sunny day it’s worth [...]
Let it be known in no uncertain terms that I will never under any circumstances go anywhere near a multiplex cinema. I would rather trek to north London to a little gem known as the Phoenix Cinema. Built in 1910 and surviving two world wars, it’s believed to be the oldest purpose built cinema in [...]
Aside from The Everyman in Hampstead, I have never known comfort like this. Plush leather armchairs and footstools with cream coloured walls, red velvet-like recesses and golden trimmings and a bar where you can forget the usual packaged and processed fat food and expect Mediterranean snacks such as olives and crudités, stuffed quail eggs and [...]
What was once originally a brothel is now one of London’s longest standing quaint cinema’s, with ornate paneled walls, heavily coffered ceiling of Edwardian plasterwork, red velvet chairs and double love seats that are comfortable enough to fall asleep in (I did once, to the Royal Tennenbaums, I hate Wes Andersen, what was I thinking?)

….is my favourite of all markets as it combines vintage clothes, amazing food and ingredients like what you would find at borough market ( 27 varieties of sweet balsamic vinegar and little testers on everything), flowers, organic shampoo, cupcakes, olives etc.. all set on one of my favourite streets in Bethnal Green and being in [...]

In an area where a new health food shop or over priced store selling baby clothes pops up every 10 minutes, I initially didn’t give Samson Miro a look in as it was always empty with only a couple of people sitting at a long wooden table who would stare at you when you’d peer [...]
I don’t go out to bars all that much, I usually only get as far as dinner then decide I’m done socialising and head home. Trailer Happiness isn’t somewhere I come often but if I was to recommend a good bar (which I am) then this would be it. Think South Pacific tiki hut mixed [...]
