Sketch Gallery Review - Afternoon Tea

My Sketch Afternoon Tea Experience

Our afternoon tea at Sketch took place in the gallery room at Sketch. The gallery at Sketch is a girly, glamourous room, with soft, velvety sofas and chairs. Glimmering rose gold accents and an amazing zig zag tiled floor.

A friendly hostess told us

Vista At The Trafalgar Review

My Vista Bar Experience  

We booked a slot at the Vista bar at the Trafalgar in London on the same day. That's the beauty of the vista bar. You can book on the day (if there are slots available). That way you don't have to worry about getting caught out in bad weather. There are umbrellas available on the rooftop bar anyway, so you'll be ok come rain or shine.

It seems we had

Gaylord Restaurant Review

After some enjoyable sun drenched days here in London we were hit with a grey. Wet. Miserable day more typical of London. Popping out for a curry seemed all the more appealing if ever a reason was needed.

Paneer Jalfrezi Tacos

One of London's top Indian restaurants - Gaylord are due to celebrate their 50th anniversary in June, and I was invited to enjoy a tasty Indian lunch. 

Gaylord in Fitzrovia is a wonderful fine dining restaurant. As soon as we were seated some

Afternoon Tea At The Savoy

It was the usual with J. He kind of puffed at the idea of afternoon tea. His outlook was a bit negative, but I was confident. I remembered how much we both enjoyed our first afternoon tea experience, and knew he would be in his element once again when we had settled in to the Savoy.

Our savoy afternoon tea experience took place on a weekday. We were

Granger & Co London Restaurant Review

Granger and Co has been one of my bucket list food destinations for quite some time. I finally got to try out their infamous ricotta hotcakes and so smooth you'd think it's mousse scrambled eggs!

Floridita London Restaurant Review

Live entertainment restaurants are my favorite type of evening out, and Floridita London doesn't disappoint! I've been to Floridita twice and I really enjoyed each occasion.

The food at Floridita London isn't that special, but the fact that Floridita is a 3-in-1 venue is excellent. There are live Latin music performances, and I love Latin music. There's a dance floor where you can watch some salsa pros or join in yourself. Restaurant seating and a well stocked bar.

STK London Review - City Food Blog

We got the babysitter in and got dressed up for a date night out at STK London.

I had no idea what to expect. After quite a few average nights out and experiences of poor service in London, I was hoping that all the effort that went into this night would be worth it!

It was worth it! STK is a gorgeous venue. Very glamorous. The sort of venue you dress up for.
We received excellent service from all members of staff. Start to finish.

A Romantic Breakfast At Cote

Thinking back to our trip to Cote - Hays Galleria branch is such a fond memory. We went to Cote during summer for a late breakfast.

Cote is a French semi-casual restaurant chain. The Hays galleria branch of Cote is really nice. We specifically chose to visit the Hays Galleria branch because of it's beautiful outdoor seating area, with gorgeous views over The river Thames. Cote Hays Galleria makes a perfect breakfast or lunch spot for a romantic date in summer. I just hope you choose a good day to eat outside!

Laduree Review London

The Laduree London branch that I visited is tucked away in a little corner in Covent garden. It has unique decor. Pastel green, with touches of cream and pastel pink, which make for a light, dreamy, feminine atmosphere.

Laduree was well stocked when I visited, with tons of macaron flavours to choose from. A friendly native french man was serving. I asked him what the most popular items were. He pointed to some chocolate thingy - I can't remember the name. He also said that Isaphan was a customer favourite.
