It happened again. This time last year, I remember waking up, frothing at the mouth excited like someone was giving me a puppy wrapped in a ticket to Vegas on Christmas morning. But it wasn’t Christmas and there was no puppy. A ticket to Vegas did come eventually, but that’s not the story. The story goes that this time last year, I was so eager to get to Taste of London that I made Panu run to the event. For realz. 
.
So it’s Bank Holiday weekend and Panu and I are in London. I know, abysmal effort on our part to get away seeing as we’d just come back from Hong Kong and that virtual cheque book is still hurting just a little bit. I wanted to do something though, anything so as to not waste this long weekend and so we decided, as you do (or maybe it’s just me), to play tourist in London and stay at a hotel. I mean, why not, right? Right.
.
Sometimes I wonder why, why is Panu my most favouritest person in the world? I mean, he’s a health nut, like a complete utter crazy health freak and me, well we all know I’m a certified glutton. I scratch my head and think for a moment, but luckily, I usually don’t have to think for very long. It’s because deep down, he’s also a practiced glutton.
.
St John Restaurant. What can I say? Well there is definitely something to be said about having stellar expectations, looking forward to a meal at a reputedly fantabulous restaurant, and having my little heart shattered from disappointment. Expectation, coupled with the fact that I’d just experienced the insufferable uselessness of the British travel system (given that two fluffs of snowflakes caused some major flight disruptions to and from Luxembourg where I’d just spent three nights with very little sleep, and believe me, I is precious with my sleep), resulted in me being crazy excited about my meal at St John last night. Because food does make everything better. BUT. Disappointment plus.
.
There are three things in life that I can’t say no to.
Offer any of those to me, in any order, or better yet – all together – and I am in a slice of catty heaven.
