Covent Garden put up it’s latest exhibition this week: Heartbeat by French artist Charles Pétillon featuring 100,000 giant white balloons that fill the grand interior of the 19th Century Market Building. It’s Pétillon’s first live work outside of France, and also his fist public art installation. Continue reading
Sackville’s, Mayfair, opened on 16th July and isn’t quite known yet. And I don’t really understand why! I was welcomed to attend for a review recently, and the top line notes are that the food was great, cocktails delicious, the staff personable and I’ll certainly be back for a non-review experience first chance I get.

God’s Own Junkyard is filled with Neon Man Chris Bracey’s work and collection, and I’ve wanted to go ever since I saw his solo show at Scream Gallery in Soho. As a neon lover, God’s Own Junkyard is basically the end all be all of neon sign glory. It’s free to go, open weekends, and I genuinely … Continue reading
Recently I was invited to dine at Massala Hut in London, with the suggestion that I consider writing a blog post if I enjoyed the food and experience. Well, lucky for them I did enjoy the food and the experience, so here is a wee blog post to tell you about it… Continue reading
Why, hello there! It’s been a while. Did you change your hair? It looks great.

So along those lines – that’s pretty much how I found myself on the guest list along with a friend for Feathers’ 40th Birthday Party on … Continue reading
Summer is my favourite season. I love the long days, the heat waves, sunbathing at the beach and picnics in the park. Growing up I longed for the days where I could ditch my tights and go bare-legged, shed the cardigans and jackets in favour of vest tops – and eat lots of watermelon and … Continue reading
Growing up in New England, nothing quite said Summer is here! like long days at the beach with BBQs and bonfires. As I grew up, those beach days, BBQs and bonfires all became excellent excuses for a party. (And as far as I’m concerned, there’s not much that beats a party with the hot, humid New England summer as a backdrop.) But … Continue reading
It’s no secret that Jeff and I love eating out and enjoy indulging in good burgers from time to time, so when tickets for the 2nd annual National Burger Day went on sale, we were all over it! So on 27 August we ate light, headed south to Battersea, queued up and ate as many burgers as … Continue reading
