    Poland Adventures

    13 December 2014 /

    I’ve been travelling again, this time to Poland. Technically I’ve also been travelling to Leicester and Norwich, however I’ve decided to blog about my Polish odyssey instead. When I told people I was visiting Poland, I got a lot of blank looks and questions of “why do you want to go there?” (to be honest, I get asked that question with a lot of places I go to). But why not Poland? First of all. Warsaw should be on anyone’s must visit list, as it is historically and visually compelling. Packed to the brim with culture and energy, I could’ve happily spent weeks in Warsaw but had to make do…

    Christmas Markets

    8 December 2014 /

    This weekend I was lucky enough to go to two Christmas fairs, the Mill Street Winter Fair in Cambridge and Winter Wonderland in London.

    Last week I paid a visit to Wagamama’s with my friend Emma. I was trying to avoid meat that day so chose the Yasai Katsu Curry. It was absolutely delicious, highly recommended even for a meal eater. It was also a good reminder than there are many non-meat alternatives in chain restaurants out there. Emma had the ramen (I think) and a smoothie: We both indulged in the coconut ice cream afterwards. Ice cream is an everyday food!

    Vietnamese Stirfry

    18 April 2014 /

    This is a stir-fry that was cooked by my brother’s partner Toan when I went to visit him last week. He is Vietnamese/ Chinese and is used to cooking in this style. Vietnamese food has very distinct flavours. Dishes use plenty of fresh herbs but tend not to be overly spicy, as chilli sauces are served separately.
