When asking about where to get good steak in London, one is often provided with the same ol’ ~ The Hawksmoor, Goodman, Le Relais de Venise, Santa Maria del Sur, Bountiful Cow and errr… Gaucho… and maybe one or two more.
Some of these are good, some not so good and mostly very meh, but no one in all of the genius of the twitterati or the food bloggersphere had ever ever suggested Sophie’s Steakhouse to me before. I mean, I had to be brought there by a civilian.
Hehe, I love the term civilian. Makes me feel like a secret service food blogger spy
Finally! It seems like a wholelife time ago but can you believe it’s only been 10 days since our crazy Matcha Madness came to a close? Well, technically it came to a close but secretly we all know know we’ll never ever be over our matcha love affair!
Don’t look at me like I’m crazy because I ain’t the only one obsessed with a certain green powder. Check out the awesome submissions I received and here, in all their glory, I’m sharing with you 38 ~ that’s right, THIRTY-EIGHT ~ original, beautiful and utterly delicious matcha recipes!
E-to-the-effin’-G-Y-P-T people! It’s been 10 days since I’ve been back from chillaxing on the shores of the glorious Red Sea, and I’m still in complete awe of myself that I actually managed to win this ridiculously cool vacation! I know I know I need to snap myself out of it and shift my laser focus to the big fat main prize and to kick start that focus (and appease the Twitterati who’ve been hounding me for my post on Egypt), herewith lies my little itty bitty review of Reef Oasis Beach Resort, a 5-star all inclusive resort on the coast of the Red Sea in Egypt’s Sharm el Sheikh.
(and holy crap, I shit you not, I just typed Beef Resort. Hello, my name is Catty and I am a food blogger.)
When I heard about a new Chinese restaurant opening in the heart of London’s business district, I kind of thought… really? Like, are they lost or something? Because you know Chinatown is not up this end of ye olde Londontown. In fact, you’re kind of no where near any Chinese person, and those who are near are bankers and they order take out to hoover on the go while multitasking the buying, selling and closing of deals.
So, Goldfish, what are you doing up this end of town then?
Gooooood Monday everyone! Right now I’m in my office, the air conditioning switched on to a very consistent 21 degrees Celsius. I’m staring outside at the traffic below and the ant-like folk of London weaving, dashing to get to… somewhere. Everything is a bleak shade of grey, a reflection of the thick clouds in the sky above but hey, who am I to complain? At least I have a window seat.
