Among warehouses and superstores, between flyovers and motorways lies an unknown pocket of history, remembered only by those with an undying faith in flight and a lasting love of aviation. My father is as passionate about planes as I am about horses, perhaps even more so. Anyone who knows me will understand just how strong that passion ...
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 ...
I'm somewhat annoyed at myself that I have lived in London for 8 years and only now discovered this incredible restaurant overlooking Islington Green. The unassuming Afghan Kitchen is only too easy to walk right past, there are no signs outside and it looks very small and simple within, however if you did walk by, ...
Attention all those who work near Regents' Place! A new café had opened next to the Sainsbury's and it's really rather good! You'll be unconsciously drawn to the bountiful bunches of fresh roses and the vivid colours that adorn the outside. As you get closer, your curiosity will be piqued by the bunches of green bananas ...
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 ...
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 ...
Ever since I came to London, I've wanted to visit the house that was home to John Keats and finally, yesterday, after seven years, I did. I've always loved the romantic poets and the Pre-Raphaelite art so many of them have inspired. I know a lot of people find the sugary sweet and ever so flowery ...
I am aware that lately I have started sounding like a Greenwich tourism spokesperson, but it can’t be helped; Greenwich really is one of the prettiest places in London with a seemingly inexhaustible number of delightful things to do. It has a stall at the food market with the best chocolates I've ever eaten, an ever-changing and ...
