om nom’ing in Michigan

Yay! I’m off home for a couple weeks visiting friends and family. This, however, does not mean I won’t be taking an obscene amount of pictures of the food I’m eating. You can look forward to write-ups of all my favourite restaurants in Ann Arbor including:
Pacific Rim
Eve
Jerusalem Garden
Cafe Habana
Aut Bar (Awful web [...]

Amaretto – Fitzrovia

We all had a very tough week at work. Lots of pitches meant long hours in the office, so once our presentation document was finished, our boss treated us to lunch at Amaretto, a cozy little Italian restaurant off Tottenham Court Road.
I haven’t had proper Southern Italian food in a while and I almost never [...]

Canteen – Baker Street

I got to the gym a lot earlier than I anticipated and was surprisingly famished, so I decided to get a quick breakfast at Canteen next door.  I’ve been to Canteen a few times, but always for dinner.

Ice cream on Primrose Hill. Could there be any better way to spend a Sunday?

Sugar Reef – Piccadilly

This meal was long overdo, not because I particularly wanted to go to Sugar Reef, but because my dining partner, the lovely George(ina) and I had been trying to get together for a meal for about 8 months. We went out when I first moved and then life got hectic and we never made it [...]

Sketch, The Lecture Room and Library – Mayfair

I’ve been holding off on my thoughts on Sketch simply because there have been so many frickin‘ reviews lately.  Rightly so, they’re offering a £50 voucher through their Facebook group until the end of August. Naturally, that got around, and pretty soon all everyone talks about is Sketch Sketch Sketch.
I went there with my friend [...]
