Thursday 12th January, 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 4 British Airways while I was away introduced their new “improved” cabin service. Now while I will grant that the ham and cheese croissant I was offered on the way out was a long way from gourmet food, it was at least included in the price of my…

Food 2016 – Moro, London
Saturday, 17th December 2016 – Moro, Exmouth Market, London After a visit to Sadler’s Wells, which is not exactly the most central of London’s theatres, it’s become almost a tradition for us to go to the splendid Moro for an early dinner. Well, if you can call three times a tradition. I think you probably…
Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 4
Monday, December 6th 2016 – Berlin And so for our final day in Berlin. We’d packed, left our bags in our room courtesy of the late checkout option, and had one last breakfast care of the Club Intercontinental (not too much, we were booked for lunch at the Reichstag later in the day) and so…
Food 2016 – Neni and the Marlene Bar, Berlin
Sunday, December 5th 2916 – Neni, 25, Berlin and Marlene Bar, Intercontinental Hotel, Berlin Dinner on the final night stood in remarkable contrast in many ways to the two restaurants that went before. Neni, in the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin, provides equally good food, again in an hotel restaurant, but the style is completely different,…
Food 2016 – Käfer Dachgarten, Berlin
Monday, 5th December 2016 – Käfer Dachgarten, The Reichstag, Berlin Lunch at the Reichstag served two purposes for us, enabling us to jump the queue to go up the Dome, and also making sure we didn’t need to bother about food for the rest of the day as we travelled home in the evening. The…
Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 3
Sunday, December 4th 2016 – Berlin By this stage we’d pretty much hit the point of not making plans though we did start the day vaguely aiming at Museum Island because our Berlin Card included it, and they are always listed as among the top sights in the city. We set off via the U2…
Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 2
Saturday, December 3rd 2016 – Berlin We had a plan – or at least we thought we did! After a brief, brutal but ultimately succesful fight with the coffee machine in the hotel room, we took a leisurely breakfast in the Interconinental Club before stepping out into a crisp, cold but above all clear winter’s…
Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 1
Friday, December 2nd 2016 – Berlin, Day 1 We set off at a slightly silly hour from our friend’s house in south London to get to City airport for the 08:20 to Berlin Tegel, and although it only takes around 27 minutes at that time of day there began one of the themes of the…
Travel/Food 2016 – Beverley, East Yorkshire
Saturday, 29th October 2016 – Beverley, East Yorkshire, UK We urgently needed to scoot up to Hull to check on my late parents’ house as we’ve just put it on the market, and so we decided to make a bit of a weekend of it and stay two nights in Beverley, which for those who…
Food 2016 – Galvin la Chapelle, London
Saturday, 8th October 2016 – Galvin la Chapelle, Spitalfields, London Another Saturday, another restaurant, another Groupon deal. Post-theatre (No Man’s Land, Wyndhams Theatre) we made our somewhat convoluted way to Spitalfields, an area of London that has changed beyond all recognition in the years since I used to cut along Commerical Road to get to…
