Where the Pancakes Are
A few days ago, J and I went to ‘Where the Pancakes Are’ for brunch during our little staycation. It was a lovely getaway, and having brunch at this place was pretty good, especially considering I could tick off a restaurant on my list after months. So. Happy.

Dalloway Terrace
this morning, Nahima and i went to Dalloway Terrace for breakfast. whenever we meet, one of us is always late. always. (usually, it’s her.) thankfully, i’d called up Dalloway the moment i got to the tube station, because i knew we’d end up running late. when we did get there, we were shown to a…

A little while ago, I went to Grounded Coffee Company with two friends, in the heart of East End. It’s nestled on the high street in Whitechapel/Aldgate East, hidden in plain sight. I’ve gone past this place so many times without ever really taking notice of it, but I used to see pictures of their…
