London Foodie!

You have probably guessed it by now but I confess I am a total foodie! Im not one of those girls who are shy to eat those sinful sweets or deep fried carbs once in a while! It's all about moderation and pacing myself. 





Gatsby style afternoon tea at the Balcon



Tea for two!

The iconic balcony

This was a tea set for two. The portions were quite big and although some of the
desserts were a little to sweet for my taste, it is still worth a try if you have the time
since toptable.co.uk does really good deals for this place.

Mini scones with jam and clotted cream. Selection of finger sandwiches 
and four different patisseries... the table next to us had macaroons too!

The scones were probably my favourite.

A quiet weekday afternoon... we came a little later so most people would have 
finished afternoon tea by then. 

Andaz 1901 at Liverpool street. Weekdays have really reasonable set menus 
and the atmosphere was great. After dinner we enjoyed a few cocktails as well.


Enjoying a few cocktails after dinner...perfect!


A happy girl at Duck and Waffle, Liverpool Street. 

The best view possible! The iconic Gherkin was in full view!

Their iconic fried pig's ears...


Duck & Waffle obviously. I was actually quite disappointed at their iconic dish. Their food is quite rustic and some of the flavours go really well together, but the prices are high,
 so you are more than likely paying for the view instead! 

Some wicked wall art at the waiting area.

Bordeaux at Night...Full moon at the Night Beach


When you can't fall asleep in the fiery heat during nighttime, Bordeaux offers a few options. Although most bars close around 1am... there are some nightclubs that opens to morning during weekends. Although we weren't up for too much of a wild night out (since we had class early in the morning), we had a lovely girl's night out to the roof top bar at the Grand Hotel, chilling and chatting. Night Beach is a relaxing and chic roof top bar that offers some amazing cocktails. I know I know, we are in Bordeaux so why would we drink cocktails? To be honest, after a whole day testing out bottles and bottles of red wines everyday, i was glad to take a break and indulge in some easy and girly drinking...

Another recommendation is Aux Quatre Coins du Vin (The Four Corners of Wine), located in the heart of Bordeaux. It is sort of a buffet wine bar, where you can help yourself to 32 different types of international wines. You top up a smart card then just swipe away to try all different types of wines. The crowd is trendy and the staff are more than happy to give you recommendations.
