london eats: borough market

Borough Market
8 Southwark St
London, SE1 1TL

If you want some of that, you would have to make a trip to Borough Market when you're in London. That is of course if hot melted cheese is your thing as much as it is mine.

Planning the places to dine at in London was a whole lot of fun and I would say, rather crazy. R & I packed our schedule full of restaurants that we wanted to try and I honestly thought that I would be sick by the end of the London leg. I was wrong cos it turned out that the current dining scene in London is extremely vibrant and with proper planning, every meal could turn out to be new and exciting! Dining at The Ledbury was a bright spark of the trip and I will remember that for a long time to come.

london eats: breakfast at ottolenghi

London W11 2AD
Tel: +44 (0)20 7727 1121

If you're in the area...



you can't possibly walk past this...



cos you won't be able to walk away quietly when you peer through that glass window and realise that if you walk in, you will see this...


and this...



before you know it, you will be pointing at this...

Caramel and Macadamia Cheesecake

this...

Lemon and Almond Cake with Blueberries

and that...

Quiche with Roasted Tomatoes, Caramelised Onions, Goat's Cheese & Thyme


The fun really begins when you dig in to the treats and settle in with a nice hot cup of coffee. 

And then of course, it gets better when you overhear a lady with 4 gorgeous children tell a friend about her upcoming weekend trip to Paris to see some art.

Ah.. the life...
