When traveling by air, it is always nice to have an access to a lounge, so that you can get some relaxation before or after your flight. I have been to Casa Alitalia Lounge in JFK, Wingtips Lounge at JFK, Air France Lounge at JFK, and Sakura Lounge at Narita Airport. At Heathrow Airport, we […]

Mrs. B’s Kitchen Cafe
Our fabulous extended family member in the U.K. took us to a cute little café on our last day in England. It was located in a rather commercial and industrial-looking area, which was interesting. One of the warehouse-type buildings was the home to this café, who is also a caterer. Parking was extremely limited, so […]
The Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town
I love Speakeasy bars, especially the ones with a secret door. I found a really cool one, located inside a Breakfast Club. We’ve been to a Breakfast club for, well, breakfast at a different location. This location seemed much bigger and spacious than the one we visited in Soho. As it was late in the […]
Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea at Sanderson
There were so many great looking afternoon tea spots in London, but we had limited time to try them. It was not easy to select just a few, but we somehow managed. The last afternoon Tea spot we tried was inside Sanderson Hotel. The main entrance led to a very large, open space. To the […]
The Gallery at Fortnum & Mason
Fortnum & Mason was one of the place I wanted to visit, if we had the time. We found out that they have some restaurants and eateries in the inside, so we decided to go for a breakfast there. This way, we get to have some food and do the shopping later. Killing two birds […]
The Jack Russell
One item I really wanted to try while in England was Yorkshire Pudding. There is something about the way it looks, that is so attractive to me… Luckily for me, one of the restaurant our extended family took us to had a great selection of dishes with Yorkshire Pudding! Yes! I know London has so […]
The Tea Shop By The Canal
We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. This spot was recommended by our extended family, and it sure looked lovely! We decided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we […]
The Bladebone
While in London, we got to check out an awesome local pub about 30 minutes outside London. It is not just any “local” pub, but it is an award winning pub! It is a restored 17th-century country pub and garden, offering British menu using local fish and game. The name “Bladebone” comes from the blade […]
The Master Builder’s
While visiting the U.K., we had planned to visit Isle of Wight. We were very excited about visiting the island, but our luck would have it, all the ferries were cancelled on that day due to severe weather… We did make it near the ferry terminal when we heard the news. Well, I am a […]
The Vault
While I was doing my research on fun places to eat and drink in London before our trip, I discovered that London has a good number of Speakeasy Bars! I wanted to visit as many as we could during our short trip. One of the top speakeasy bars I found was located inside Milroy’s – […]
