Coffee with Clare Price of Guava & Gold

November 24, 2020November 24, 2020 Saira RasheedLeave a comment

In October, during our limited freedom to mingle and meet people, I met Clare Price for an extended brunch in Notting Hill! We were so happy to be able to connect after a very tiresome summer. We still felt the looming anxiety on what was next with the pandemic but we also felt grateful that [...]

Coffee with George & Vinny of Chapter Coffee

June 19, 2020June 19, 2020 Saira RasheedLeave a comment

Chapter Coffee was one of the last places I really wanted to visit prior to lockdown, but things closed down so quickly I missed the opportunity. Being stuck at home during the lockdown and trying to motivate myself was difficult. However, brands have become increasingly creative during this time and coffee is one thing I [...]

Dedicated to Burger Heaven

This lockdown has only taught me one thing. To not take anything for granted and to ensure as soon as we are out of this, do everything I have wanted to do. This involves a lot of coffee, tequila beverages, and food plus soaking up the best hotel atmospheres. I want to revisit every place [...]
