While in Copenhagen in December last year, we were on the hunt for somewhere to eat/escape the rain for a couple of hours. Totally in the mood for brunch (when am I not…), we came across Bankeråt in our research (and by research, I mean a quick Google search of “brunch in Copenhagen”).
So a brunch date to the Trans Europe Cafe happened. I’d been wanting to visit for a while, ’cause I feel like the Cafe holds some kind of reputation for being an ideal casual/delicious brunch spot in the city centre.
Last weekend Rick and I made our first visit to CAU, Glasgow. Their Glasgow restaurant opened up a few months ago I think, and being settled in the beaut of a building I walk past every day was really ramping up the temptation. I originally wanted to go for brunch (sweet potato and chorizo hash – hello) and Rick wanted to go for Sunday roast, but we happened to miss both… So dinner it was.
A chilly Saturday morning and a break from the endless Glasgow rain meant one thing – a winter’s walk, and a visit to bakery47. My first visit to be exact. With the sporadic opening hours and limited info available online, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. What I found was a warm and welcoming bakery-come-cafe with a pastry selection to please everyone imaginable.
On a recent jaunt to London, I revisited an old favourite restaurant in Soho – Flat Iron. Having visited the Beak Street branch a few times before, I was really excited to see they’d opened their second restaurant which is tucked away on Denmark Street, and felt obliged to go check it out.
The weekend before last saw the opening of Brewdog’s latest addition to their lineup – Doghouse. Homed in what has been an empty, unused space for as long as I can remember, the new bar is a welcome addition to Hutcheson Street.
There’s a never-ending list of amazing restaurants and even bars to eat in in London, but if you’re in the big smoke and struggling for some inspiration, maybe you can find something below to help you out.
I hadn’t actually heard much of a buzz about Bill’s opening up in Glasgow, I only caught that illuminated sign of glory by chance while walking past on my lunch break. My other half and I decided to try out a new restaurant every month this year, and despite the fact we’ve been to Bill’s in London loads, we decided this would be March’s date-night.
Here’s a round up of what we got up to on our last two days in Berlin.
I visited Berlin with my significant other and a group friends in October last year. We booked the trip for mid-October for two reasons – one, because my friend found a tattoo artist he really wanted to visit in the city, and two, because this was the week the Festival of Light was happening. As fate would have it, we failed to accomplish either of these things, but here’s what we did get up to:
