Superfoods in London: Restaurant Plum and Spilt Milk (20. February 2016)
When you hear “Plum and Spilt Milk” you wonder – who comes up with the idea to name a restaurant like this!? Well, in the end, it doesn’t really matter as what you get there is quite great. The “superfood salad” (GBP 9.50) which comes with quinoa, pomegranate, sprouts, pumpkin seeds, beetroot, walnuts, wrapped in […]
Great British food and lovely atmosphere: Restaurant Maggie Jones’s (19. February 2016)
Talking about a positive surprise! When you see Maggie Jones’s from outside it does not look too appealing and even when you enter it, it looks a bit murky and not too welcoming. But once you are seated and especially if you get your own “booth” (ask for a booth when booking), the picture changes. […]
23. January 2016: Executive Lounge @ Le Méridien Piccadilly
The Executive Lounge at the Le Méridien Piccadilly is a bit unusual. Normally, you are in a separate area where you can’t see other people or they can’t see you. In this case, the lounge is placed on the Mezzanine and you can look down onto the reception seeing the entrance of the hotel – […]
23. January 2016: Restaurant STK
The Restaurant STK had been recommended to me by a friend as well as by the hotel I was staying at, so I decided to give it a try. As the decision was taken rather last minute to eat early, I asked to concierge to make a call. Funny enough, the booking was for 5pm […]
23. January 2016: Cecconi’s Mayfair
I figured that over the last years, I have been trying a lot of different “mules” – this afternoon it was time for a “Soho Mule (House Tonic Cocktail; Finlandia, house ginger syrup, fresh lime juice, Soda water)” (GBP 10.00) and the soho mule was actually lovely. Definitely a drink you can enjoy and one […]
16. August 2015: Restaurant Opso
The “velvety yellow fava beans spread from Santorini with crispy capers and red onion” (GBP 6.00) is absolutely perfect to start your “Greek tapas experience” – especially if you order them with “Slices of Bread” (GBP 1.00) which go perfectly with the fava dip. The “Souvlaki slow cooked pork belly with tzatziki sauce in a […]
15. August 2015: Restaurant Briciole
Do you sometimes feel like having something small but very tasty? And if that something small should be Italian pasta in London, then you definitely should pay the “Briciole” a visit. I went for the “ravioli ripieni di prosciutto di Parma, burro e salvia” (GBP 11.00) which were, simply put, absolutely delicious. However, I personally […]
15. August 2015: Restaurant Souli
The Souli is kind of the favourite breakfast place of my host in London and I must say I understand why. The place is small, atmospheric, the staff is friendly, and the “Tunisia Crepe” (GBP 6.95) is definitely yummy! If you are looking for a quiet place to have a coffee and study, meet someone […]
