This pizza from Figo in Stratford deserves a lot of love. I tried it way back before lockdown 1, so it was a bit of time ago, but it’s stuck in my memory since. Figo is a great little Italian place in East London, with a vibrant atmosphere. The pizza was excellent, so flavoursome and… Continue reading Eating My Way Through London: Figo, Stratford

Sushi-making and Sake*
Happy October! The trees are changing colour and there’s a definite chill in the air. I love Autumn- it makes me want to stack up on carbs and chai. I’ve also been thinking back to a sushi-making class I went to in London this time last year. I’ve been a bit lax in adding this… Continue reading Sushi-making and Sake*
All you can eat pizza at Crust Bros
Even though I can’t actually visit there right now, I’m currently dreaming about these delicious pizzas from Crust Bros in Waterloo. Yes I had both in one go! It’s really hard to post content under the UK lockdown, especially for a food blog that is centred mainly around eating out! It becomes a struggle to… Continue reading All you can eat pizza at Crust Bros

Eating My Way Through London: Busaba, Stratford
We went to this place for a work lunch on my manager’s suggestion. I liked what I had, my manager didn’t. Make of that what you will! Personally I found the Pad Kwetio tasty but not very filling. I do have a big appetite though. My colleagues had a variety of dishes, all which looked… Continue reading Eating My Way Through London: Busaba, Stratford
Strawberries and Cream Dream Cake
We walked for ages to find Cutter and Squidge in Soho- it was actually slipped down a side- street. Was it worth it? Well, the cake doesn’t need words:
January Comfort Food
January can be a pretty grim month, but this winter-warmer from Beefsteaks (imaginatively named Steak and Chips) went a long way towards helping with that. Tasty and warming- total winter comfort food. Beefsteaks, Kew Gardens
Let’s go nuts for doughnuts
Great doughnuts, great company. I’m super fussy about doughnuts, preferring jam, but these were divine. Longboys, Boxpark, Wembley
Ribs to live and die for
I think I found the best ribs in London! If you wander away from the touristy section of the Tower Bridge/ Bermondsey area, you will come across The Kings Arms, which offered up a smashing half portion of ribs. Read my review here: https://www.weekendnotes.co.uk/the-kings-arms-bermondsey/
Anyone for gyros?
This gyros from The Athenian at Boxpark Wembley was amazing! Succulent, juicy and gorgeous. Also, today being Halloween gives me the opportunity for the perfect #TBT to a divine Halloween afternoon tea that I had a few years ago. Happy Halloween!
