The Barbary, Covent Garden
Being labelled ‘the best restaurant in London’ gives The Barbary in Neal’s Yard a lot to live up to. The little sister of established London eatery The Palomar, the restaurant takes its inspiration from the Barbary coast. Good thing the food is amazing then…read my review on Weekend Notes here

Warming up the night
I don’t eat much Indian food, but when I do, I go to town! Here is a picture of a chicken nariyal I enjoyed recently. I think there were samosas and prawn crackers lingering nearby as well. The Elachi, Belper, Derbyshire

The Auld Hundred, Edinburgh- Finally tried Haggis
I managed to visit Scotland finally- after years of wanting to go there. It’s been top of my wish list for a while now. I absolutely loved Edinburgh- such a beautiful city, one of Europe’s finest in my opinion. And whilst I was there, I grabbed the opportunity to try haggis. I decided to have mine as part of a burger. Verdict: it was delicious. Haggis and burger- The Auld Hundred, Edinburgh
