A few weeks ago, I was wandering along Edgware high street with Lovely Jane, in search of food. We were heading along Station Road, vaguely towards Izgara, a fabulous Turkish place, as we have been there before and have never been disappointed with the food. I say ‘vaguely’ as we started from Sainsbury’s car park …

Albert’s Table, South Croydon.
I know everyone is saying “Croydon??” but bear with me on this one, okay?At the beginning of September, Simon and I decided to go out for our anniversary dinner as we hadn’t managed to go on the actual day due to Life happening. Simon had been to Albert’s Table before, and said that we really, …
Turkish Mangal, Hornchurch
The lovely Food Urchin had extolled the virtues of his local Turkish restaurant so I, always eager to find a really good place to eat near where I live, asked for the details. High Road, Hornchurch is apparently the place to be for really good Turkish food. Life got busy for a couple of weeks, …
The Forge
On a bit of a whim, Col and decided to forgo our usual Tuesday night gaming evening, and have an Us Night Out instead. This entailed a last minute Travelodge booking, of which more later, maybe, and a booking at The Forge in Covent Garden.I will say, here and now, that they scored so very …
The Cricketers, Clavering, Essex
There was a nasty rumour going around last month that The Cricketers had closed because Jamie Oliver's mum and dad had retired and Someone Else had taken over. This was a bit upsetting as it is a lovely place that we have visited a few times but huzzah! Hurrah! It turned out to be just …

Di Paolo café, Bexhill on Sea
Every so often, No 1 Boyfriend and I head to his place in Bexhill. A sort of a Pied à Mare I suppose.We either go for a spot of much deserved RnR, where I squeak happily at the sea and have all the windows open so that I can fall asleep to the sound of …
Le Garrick
The last time that I went out to an evening dinner with C it was to Acornhouse and we had a very good time indeed. http://cookwitch.blogspot.com/2010/11/acornhouse-restaurant-kings-cross.htmlLast Thursday, after an email conversation that went along the lines of "I have a hankering for French. Can you look at Open Table." and then a flurry of "Oooh …
The Tommyfield – Kennington
It was Boyfriend's Birthday last week so A Meal was arranged. K and I had read reviews of a few gastropubs, because that's what we do for fun, and The Tommyfield looked rather good. A booking was made and so on a very cold Saturday evening Boyfriend and I set out from the exotic climes …
Costa Coffee Christmas Sweet Treats Range
A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to get sent a box of cakes. Did you see that? Maybe I didn't type it loudly enough. CAKES.Ho yes. Very yummy cakes they were too. I decided to do A Taste Test in the office and, oddly, everyone wanted to help out. They never seem to …
