Aux Merveilleux de Fred – The new alternative for cupcakes!
Some things are meant to be. Myself and Ashma were about to cross the road and head towards Byron when I turned around right in time and had a peek of Aux Merveilleux - the most genius idea and gorgeous French patisserie I have come across in London.The concept of meringues with whipped cream is [...]
L’Eto Caffe in Shepherd Market!
So I have been to L'Eto a couple of times but usually to the ones in Soho or South Kensington. This was my first visit to the one in Mayfair and I have to say their choice of location is ideal. I have often thought of escaping and hiding away in some cafe and getting [...]
Some Kebabs and Naans in the heart of Parsons Green
I've found it very hard adjusting to life back in London after a trip back to Islamabad. My mom makes me delicious food, usually starting the day off with a paratha and then pulao for lunch and usually we'd go out for the evening to some restaurant which again has it's dishes tuned in with [...]
Some Baker and Spice near Ebury Street
It had been a while since I had visited the Floris Boutique on Ebury Street (a unique gem of London) and we decided to go for a coffee to Baker and Spice. The first time I had visited was last Spring and Belgravia/Elizabeth Street give off quite a different and nostalgic feel during that time [...]

Not to mention, the positioning is ideal, in the heart of Sloane Square, you'll come across the best dressed ladies here!I [...]
An unusual experience at The Corinthia!
It was back then at The LSE when The Corinthia Hotel was getting prepared for the launch and we never realised what was happening! Little did we know it would open as one of the most beautiful hotels in London!I popped in to Corinthia for a coffee last evening after work! It's an absolutely gorgeous [...]
Fratelli is taking over London!
My affair with Fratelli started in university when I was in 2nd year and we discovered the new Cafe Fratelli that had opened right next to The Waldorf Hilton close to The LSE. 3 years down the line, there seems to be one in every corner of London. Sloane Square, Bond Street, Berkeley Square and it [...]
The Mandarin Oriental Bar!
Mainly known in London for its most fashionable cocktails, I have happened to be there a lot of days mainly for meetings and of course, to keep myself going, their coffees! If you are looking for a semi relaxed yet formal environment, The Bar is the perfect place to go especially with the central location [...]
