I love pizza. Just so much. I would have it on my list of ‘these are a few of my favourite things’ along with raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. But post Europe, GG and I have endeavored to aim to eat a bit healthier with less of an emphasis on carbs, so I’ve […]

It was my birthday the other week. Older yes, but I would venture not a whole lot wiser. But I’m fine with that, perhaps wisdom is something I’ll grow into. I enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing day. Well, relaxing except for the hour of personal training which was entirely focused on legs and introduced me to […]

There probably aren’t too many restaurateurs who would open their third venue and then immediately launch into their fourth. A really ambitious fourth at that. But such is the drive of Andy Freeman and Sam Astbury that the business partners and their team took it all in their stride when they recently opened The Flour Factory. […]

I hadn’t been to Ace Pizza in a year and I was reminded this week just how great it is. It has actually been exactly a year because Ace has become my Dad’s birthday dinner place of choice and myself and the rest of the family are very happy about that. Because it is just […]

For the second time in my life, I made the decision to book in an annual leave day from work so I could head along to the Good Food & Wine Show on a Friday. This year I even convinced GG to come along with me. Now I recognise my GFWS experience may be slightly […]

Plenty of seating options, all very open and with the lovely alfresco area with plenty of greenery. Plus on the few […]

Wanting to continue enjoying the Spring sunshine fun after our lunching at the Oxford on Saturday we let the good times roll and decided we would lunch it up at the Royal on Sunday. I quite like the Royal, such a pretty spot along the Claisebrook Cove and just perfect for the ideallic conditions 🙂 […]

Pizza pizza pizza. What can I say? I’m a fan. A big fan! So when I heard there was a new pizza place in Bayswater called Old Lira I was pretty keen to give it a whirl. Tucked away on the corner of Garratt and Guildford Roads and currently only open from 5 to 9 […]

A catch up with Mr and Mrs M&M  was well overdue for GG and I, so recently we decided to try the new addition to Beaufort Street in Highgate called Ace Pizza. It is the latest in the impressive group of restaurants which has been put together by the team behind Cantina 663 and el […]
