It’s been a while since my latest update but that doesn’t mean I didn’t do anything in the mean time, quite the opposite actually! Let’s start about three weeks ago, when I was invited to go to this raw wine fair in the Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane. And when you’re asked to attend a fair where […]

Broadway Market
Whenever I go on a city trip or just on a holiday first thing I do is check out the food hotspots. Maybe a little concerning my entire holiday can evolve around food. What can I say? I just love to eat. That’s why I love the idea of a food market so much. Lucky me, there’s […]
Couscous with prawns & mint
I must say that whenever I’m home late from work I’m not always in the mood to cook a dish that will take about an hour to prepare. I’m a very impatient person so there are days when I even think the 8 minute cooking time of pasta takes way too long. Luckily there’s a lifesaver […]
Dirty Bones
What a great place Soho is! Busy, but great. And since it’s so busy it’s hard to find a place to eat because a lot of restaurants could be full. My aunt and I were lucky enough to find a seat in Dirty Bones. A very cool place to eat in Kingly Court. This is […]
Update two
Another update from this pretty city! My aunt came to visit me and we had an amazing time where it was basically all about food (can’t complain). When we were not eating we did some sightseeing. We went to see the Tower Bridge which I already went to before and we visited Ben, Big Ben. Which was pretty […]
Apple & pecan banana bread
Banana bread. I know it’s called bread but this will taste nothing like bread (although bread is also very nice). I got this recipe from Delicious magazine and it’s amazing. I think it has something to do with the fact that the apples are caramelized, and pretty much anything that is caramelized tastes great. Also, […]
Borough Market
Apparently there are plenty enough food markets in London and I’m not complaining at all. I went to a couple of them already and the first one I will write about is Borough Market. I went to Borough market before but then there was no market (small detail, make sure you’ll check the time if […]
Update one
My adventure in London has begun! I will be doing an internship at Rude Health for three months and when I’m not at work I’ll probably visit a lot of hotspots and hopefully discover some great places to eat. I arrived at my Airbnb room on Wednesday together with my boyfriend who will keep me company […]
Carrot soup with (loads of) coriander
Oh how I love soup. I like it for the fact that you can basically put everything in it you like and most of the time it turns out great. Especially when you’ve got some leftover veggies, soup will be your answer. I had some carrots in the fridge and some coriander as well and […]
4 x my favorite kind of breakfast
I just love breakfast. I think it is even my favorite meal of the day. It could be a pretty good pickup line actually: you could be just like my breakfast, the last thing I think about when I go to sleep and the first thing I think about when I wake up. Anyway, I […]
