Life can be so difficult sometimes – take this week for example, when I was asked to join in with a brewery tour at the Meantime Brewing Company in North Greenwich hosted by another Greenwich-based company, Black Vanilla. It was such a difficult decision… I’ve visited the folks at Meantime before, so I won’t recount […]
Dine Another Day With Lime & Tonic London
Last week I received a rather mysterious message from Lime & Tonic London inviting me to a dinner at a secret London location for their new ‘Dine Another Day’ experience. Being a rather adventurous soul I didn’t feel that I could refuse, so I replied in the affirmative and was told to wait outside the […]
A Night of ‘La Hechicera’ – Colombian Rum @ Portobello Road’s Trailer Happiness

Now I hadn’t realised it until the other day that Belgo has been established in London since 1992, and that in the last few years this Belgian inspired restaurant has opened up many […]
Best Of The London Beer Festivals For 2013
While the calendar fills up with trendy happenings in Shoreditch and other points east, I’m still a big fan of the traditional beer festivals that come around in London year after year. While a few have already passed us by (notably the celebrated event that happens in Camden’s old town hall every Spring) there are […]
