Casa Tua review: Eating my way though London
Casa Tua is a hidden gem just a short walk from Camden Town. This charming restaurant exudes an authentic Italian ambiance and looks inviting from the outside. Established in Camden in August 2013, Casa Tua brings genuine Italian cuisine to Londoners, offering a cosy atmosphere. This is such a homely place- apparently the idea of the restaurant was to make people feel like they were visiting someone’s dining room and this restaurant achieves that. The service was pretty good and friendly. Tables were small so it was difficult to fit everything on. However, understandably there was limited space. Due to size, Casa Tua would be excellent if you were looking…

In Memoriam by Alice Winn- A Review
In Memoriam by Alice Winn is a beautifully written novel that will pull you to pieces. It provides a stark contrast between the insanity of war and the purity of love. It follows the journey of two young men, Gaunt and Ellwood, from an idyllic English boarding school to the trenches of World War One. Upon finishing reading In Memoriam, I found it lingered in my thoughts for days. This novel stood out from others, compelling me to pause reading other books to fully come to terms with its story. This is not like me. I often jump from book to book, or have several books on the go at…
