Food for thought
in Food for thought, Inspiration -All about food in this food for thought: delicious cocktails, extraordinary ladies, a gorgeous seasonal pizza & healthy sandwiches. Happy Friday, everyone! It feels like spring is finally here- although London weather has a reputation for being notoriously and at times charmingly unpredictable. None the less, we’ve had lots of sunshine the past few days, […]
Spicy & lemony linzer cookies
in Desserts, Taste -These past few days, I’ve been longing for some extra Christmas spirit-ness and festiveness and joy and whatnot. The house is fully (yet not full on) decorated, our Christmas jumpers are out and some most of the presents are wrapped; yet there was something missing. I couldn’t put my finger on it for a while […]
Persimmon & apple french toast
in Breakfast, Taste -My love for breakfast has been well documented here. I’m down for almost anything, almost every morning. Οn week days, I like to keep things simple with quick smoothies, full of goodness and flavour, or crunchy and perfectly sweet homemade granola, a nutty bar or hot and creamy quinoa. Some days though call for eggs […]
Food for thought
in Food for thought, Inspiration -We got married last Friday and let me tell you, those cliches about weddings, they’re all true: the month leading up to the day was a damn stressful one, filled with all sorts of tension, bickering and mini fights and the day of was the best goddamn day ever.
Toast 3 ways
in Small bites, Taste -One of the things rarely found in our kitchen is bread. Don’t get me wrong- I LOVE bread, both making and (even more) eating it.

Peanut butter & raspberry jam panettone french toast
in Breakfast, Taste -Happy happy new year! It feels so good to be back, after about ten days spent in utter holiday bliss: lots of delicious food and good wine shared with dear friends, lots of naps, lazy walks around sunny London, many films and cheesy Christmas songs playing on repeat almost all day round.
40ft Brewery
in The Others -First I met the Irish, Steve (founder of Root & Bone), then one of the Swedes, Andreas. They’re both photographers, working at the large Dalston studio where Mike often spends the better part of his day (and night). Both are funny, sweet and polite and, as I find out soon after, they’re also making their […]
No-churn coffee, choc chip & hazelnut ice-cream
in Desserts, Taste -When I was little, the first ice-cream I had always marked the beginning of summer. It was almost always the same: two big round crunchy chocolate cookies, drenched in chocolate ganache, with vanilla ice-cream sandwiched between them. Heaven. I still have the same and it still marks the official start of the holidays for me, even though […]
