Mercat Barcelona Gastrobar

So a little while back I headed over to Mercat for Sunday lunch.  I'd been hearing a lot about it, and as I am a huge fan of Catalan cooking, I was determined to try some of their most talked-about dishes.


























Summer and Happy Endings' Ice Cream

The weather was absolutely glorious this weekend so Polina and I spent a day basking in the sunshine and enjoying a great selection of foods from the Broadway Market. I just had to write a short post to tell you all about the most delectable ice cream I have had in a long time. You should also bear in mind that I have just returned from Italy, where I feasted on the most sumptuous gelato - so this place must be good.

Somewhat cheekily, yet appropriately, named, 'Happy Endings' sells fabulous ice cream sandwiches. What makes these ice creams so good, are the clever and well balanced flavour combinations.



Mario & Luigi

Having heard so many good things about Mario & Luigi, I finally headed over for dinner last night.  I am pleased to report that it did not disappoint.

To start, we shared a couple of antipasto:

Burrata

























Weekend Brunchin' in KL - Part 4: VCR Cafe

Happy Labour Day everyone!  

Hope everyone's having a well-earned break and finding some time to try out new brunch spots :)  If you're looking for a recommendation, I may have just the thing for you!



















Berlin Brunch Series - Hofbräu München

I spent some time in Berlin and discovered some lovely places to eat. I had been warned before I travelled, that I shouldn't expect good food. I was happy to discover that the advise was not warranted. From quaint cafes, to large beer restaurants and incredible kebab joints - Berlin has a lot to offer. My next series of posts will reveal hotspots I found in Berlin.

Hofbräu München is a must visit if you are in Berlin. Prost!



Springtime in Cambridge

This post is going to be a little different to our usual posts. I'm going to take you along with me to Cambridge on a sunny Saturday.

Cambridge makes the perfect day trip if you live in London and you get that feeling where you just need to escape for a little while. Just hop on the tube up to King's Cross, then get on a train - 50 minutes later you'll be in beautiful Cambridge.



Marta's Kitchen

Last night I went to Marta's Kitchen in Desa Sri Hartamas for dinner.  I adore Spanish food and we were a group of five so tapas & paella seemed a logical choice.

We were also very, very hungry, having driven for over an hour to get there (that's a story for another day!) so we unashamedly ordered enough to feed a small army...
