The very first night I arrived in London the friends I was staying with informed me they had managed to snag us a dinner reservation at Ottolenghi in Islington. Ottolenghi has 5 restaurants and delis across London, with the Islington one his very first.
London Exploring: Food Markets
London does food markets incredibly well and I made it my mission to visit as many of them as possible over the few days I was there recently, and boy was I not disappointed! Fresh produce, delicious snacks, handmade goodies and pretty much anything else edible (or drinkable!) you could imagine. Here’s a little about the three food markets I visited!
Recipe: Tofu Tikka Masala
Since arriving back from (mostly) sunny Europe to freezing cold Melbourne I’ve been all about the hearty, warming winter meals. This tofu tikka masala really hit the spot and helped me feel a little less sad about my holidays being well and truly over!
The Foodie Files – Dancing Through Sunday
For this month’s Foodie Files chat I’m delighted to bring you Bec, from Dancing Through Sunday fame. A fellow inner-city Melbournite Bec has an intense love for brunch which I definitely understand & her instagram feed is always full of amazing food snaps both from at home and out and about. This lady’s food photography is top notch, I wish I had her skills, that’s for sure!
Christchurch Eating: Mama Hooch
As part of our day in Christchurch we headed to Mama Hooch for a lunchtime feed and we were most definitely not disappointed! It’s open from breakfast to late most days of the week and was the sort of place I would have liked to come back to later for a few drinks as well.
