    Bristol: A City of Culinary Pleasures

    Bristol is a foodie’s paradise. There’s such a vast selection of good places to eat throughout the city. I was lucky enough to be gifted the chance to go on a food tour when I visited my friend Anna there a few months ago. Also- our tour guide was vegan as was my friend, so a lot of the food we sampled was either vegan or had a vegan alternative. West Street Kitchen A good place to start the tour, we enjoyed coffee and these super- cute cakes. Glitch Glitch is a hairdresser’s, but in true hipster style, they offer a nice line in rustic pizza. I really couldn’t get…

    Eating My Way Through London: Borough Market

    I do love a food market. The most famous one in London is Borough Market in Southwark, which is open from Monday- Saturday. The market has stood on the site since the thirteenth century and is a big draw for tourists and Londoners alike. The market is a foodie paradise. One tip I would give is to visit on an empty stomach to fully enjoy all that is available. Borough Market offers a wide supply of delicacies and delights, including pastries, cheese (lots of cheese) and teas. And the fudge. Definitely try the various types of fudge that Whirld has to offer. It is amazing. Seriously. The market is super…

    Ridgmont Station Tea Rooms

    I really love visiting tea rooms. This one in Ridgmont, Bedfordshire, didn’t disappoint. The tea rooms are a converted station building and are beautifully set- out, cosy and quaint. The food isn’t half- bad either! A lovely Easter Saturday treat 🙂

I had these waffles: They also served a gorgeous tea with honey that could be added. The waffles were good but the tea was better :p

    Vanilla Cheesecake

    A lovely morning in Cambridge talking about books at a literary festival, followed by tea and vanilla cheesecake with friends- sounds like a perfect way to spend a Saturday in my opinion. Harriet’s Cafe and Tearooms, Cambridge

    Breakfast on Albert Docks

    Breakfast is one of my favourite meals of the day (along with lunch and dinner. And brunch). In the week, because of my work schedule it’s pretty simple, but at the weekend I like to go for something a little bit more exciting (toast, you’re up). I was lucky enough to enjoy breakfast on Albert Docks on a recent trip to Liverpool. It was a lovely sunny day. Peabody Coffee Shop was quite hipster and pricey but the food is divine. This egg and bacon muffin was gorgeous. More pictures of food from my Liverpool trip to come.
