You could easily walk past Black Magic without even noticing it, the dark, wooden exterior is carved with entwined snakes and staffs and above the door, the rune like words glow in a dark muted amber light. Walking in, you may feel like you've just walked into the lair of a bewitching sorceress. Old ceramic herb jars ...
It's been a long time since I plucked a dying dandelion and blew the seeds of white fluff up into the air to be spirited away by the wind. It was way back when I always had flowers in my hair and when I wasn't too afraid to dream. Long ago, when I had not ...
I can honestly say, without exaggeration, that I crave food from Roti King at least once a day. I think I may have subconsciously surrounded myself with people who love the food at this little Malaysian restaurant as much as me, in order to have an endless supply of people to take the weekly pilgrimage ...
In my opinion there's nothing better in winter than a tasty warming soup and luckily I have a boyfriend who not only enjoys waking up at the crack of dawn on weekends to cook, but is incredibly gifted in the kitchen. All I had to do was sit, take some photos (with my new camera) ...
Wild boar, beaver, quail and venison - it's no wonder this restaurant is named after the Lithuanian word for 'Bear' (Lokys). As you lope through this forest of a menu, your inner wild creature will take over as you let your feral instincts of scent and taste reign; and I can assure you, you won't be disappointed. Lokys holds ...
Last night I met up with my 3 best friends for a winter warming dinner at Kipferl, an Austrian restaurant in Camden Passage (near Angel). My flatmate had been talking about how great it was for a while, and having never eaten any Austrian food outside Austria, I was keen to find out more! I love Camden ...
A profile of me that was featured on the blog FOOD, 1. Where do you live and what do you like best about your neighbourhood? I live near Old Street. The thing I like best about my neighbourhood is the complete mix of people and styles – hipsters & pop up bars; local mosques; the green Vietnam-town ...
One of the best things about South East Asian countries is how alive the cities are at night! We only landed in HCMC at 8pm today then travelled to our hotel, checked in, unpacked leisurely and changed before heading out to get a feel for the city at night. We walked past the HCMC Opera ...
Since I moved to my new office by Great Portland Street, I've been on the hunt for good places for lunch. If you're willing to walk a little bit, it's actually a pretty good location. Roti King at Euston Station for authentic Malaysian food, Oriental Dragon for a Chinese kick, Rasa Express for delicious mango ...
There is absolutely nothing as good as a fresh batata vada for breakfast. Actually scratch that, I love them so much I'd take them fresh and hot or cold and decidedly old! When it comes to food I definitely lean towards my Indian side - I wake up wanting aloo parathas and hot masala chai and ...
