Another day in this fabulous city! I decided to give shopping a rest today (by “I” what I actually mean is my dad decided to give shopping a rest) and go to all the tourist attractions instead! So we first went to the Empire State Building….

Then we went to Wall street….

And finished the day by visiting the United Nations Building.

I would recommend all these tourist attractions if you are visiting the city for the first time like I am! Tonight we are going to Jean Georges. They say this is one of New York’s finest restaurants so I’ll go tonight and judge! Have a lovely evening!

Good Morning! Has everyone collected their free latte from Starbucks yet? You can go into any Starbucks chain and they will give you a free latte today before midday! How good is that?! I am going to go and get mine soon! For sure! So what are you up to today? Anything good? Me?…..Oh you are too kind to ask! I am going to watch the film This Means War! Very excited! I especially love the “salmon comment” at the end of the trailer! Makes me happy! Yesterday was spent having dinner with a friend at Zizzi’s. I am not normally a fan of restaurant chains as I find they tend to become rather boring, however, I think Zizzi’s is an exception to the rule, and plus it does italian which is my favourite! Additionally, it is very good value with the tastecard! Happy eating!

Boyd’s Brasserie Bar and Lounge was the gorgeous tapas place I went to on saturday evening. The restaurant is ideally located in the centre of London at Trafalgar Square (close to Charing Cross and Leicester Square tube station). The kitchen offers breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, drinks and dinner. I would say that is a rather wide selection! To make a reservation click here. Enjoy your meal!

For those of you, like me, who does not normally care for Indian food (or have never properly tried it) I suggest you take a trip to the Mintleaf lounge! To get to this wonderful restaurant you simply get off at Liverpool Street Station and it is an easy 2 minutes walk from there! I would reccommend the Porn Star Martini and the Tandori Duck Breast Kebab as a starter.

If you have any recommendations for nice indian food please do tell!

Valentines Recap.

Valentines was lovely and the meal at Fig Bistro was just the icing on the cake. I got a card which said “A Madame Never Travels Lightly”, which that is very true when it comes to me. Right now I am in the car in my way into London. I am moving into my flat on monday and I am moving all my stuff up today (which is not little!). However, each time my boyfriend complains about the amount of stuff I have, I simply tell him that he COULD have chosen a different girlfriend, however, he DID NOT, so deal with it! Does anyone else get this? If you do, I suggest you try my tactic as I find it works every time! Despite us not agreeing on the amount of stuff I have, we do agree on most other things and among them is what makes a lovely Valentines Day!

The Louboutin’s are newly resoled. Hence the shady red colour!

Shoes by Christian Louboutin, Dress by Maje and Clutch by Mulberry.

I hope your Valentines Day was just as Lovely! Have a great weekend!

I had a lovely Valentines Day! Absolutely Lovely! I will show you photos of the flowers and outfit a bit later, however, I wanted to share with you the Lovely (with a big L) restaurant we went to! This charming and intimate restaurant is situated 10 min walk away from Caledonian Road Tube Station (Piccadilly line). I had the Langoustine & Pumpkin soup, followed by the Cod and then the Chocolate fondant for dessert. It was absolutely magnificent! The menu is offered by Chef Christoffer Hruskova who has previously worked at Michelin star restaurants! This restaurant offers excellent food, in a lovely atmosphere at a reasonable price. Do I need to say more? Well, if you’re STILL not convined have a look….

 

I hope you had a nice meal on Valentines Day! For more information and pictures visit figbistro.co.uk. If you have any other restaurant recommendations please do tell! Have a lovely evening!
