Cutter & Squidge is a cute little cafe in Soho. Set up by two food obsessed sisters, creators of the 'Biskie', it's not to be missed! It's also good to see that the lovely cakes and biskies are (kind of) good for you i.e. the ingredients are mostly local and not overly sugary as some… Continue reading Spring came early (plus Cutter & Squidge)!

Notting Hill’s not so hidden gem – Farm Girl Cafe
Farm Girl is one of my favourite brunch places and that is saying something, particularly as London is full of amazing and unique spots for foodies!

Opa! Greek food at Suvlaki
Soho is my go to area for good restaurants. There are so many different options to choose from - Sri-Lankan, Italian, Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, Peruvian, you name it!

Hop over to Hoppers for authentic Sri-Lankan food
Third time lucky. I finally did it. I got in to Hoppers! Rejoice.

It's one of those restaurants that doesn't take reservations and only seats around… Continue reading Hop over to Hoppers for authentic Sri-Lankan food

On this lovely Sunday, I… Continue reading High Altitude Dining
