Picture this: It’s my birthday, the sun is shining, and my best friend Laura and I are back at Zuaya London in High Street Kensington. Yes, that’s right — my second visit! The first time was just before Christmas, and now we’re here to dive into their summery menu. Let’s just say, it was a fiesta for the senses!
The moment we walked in, Zuaya’s stunning interior whisked us away to a tropical paradise. Think stylish furniture, lush greenery, and an ambience that’s both cozy and lively. Whether you fancy an inside spot or prefer the outside terrace, this place has got you covered. It’s like a mini-vacation in the middle of the city!

On my birthday a few weeks ago, my fabulous friend Antonella and I decided to treat ourselves to a delightful dining adventure at ASK Italian at The O2, Peninsula Square, London, after some retail therapy at the Outlet. Located in the heart of Greenwich’s buzzing entertainment hub, this modern Italian gem offers a perfect blend of delicious food and a vibrant atmosphere.

Walking into Sketch feels like stumbling into a funky art gallery that serves food. This quirky London townhouse, just off Regent Street, isn’t your average fine dining spot — it’s more like a playground for grown-ups with a penchant for the absurd.
Right now, Sketch is throwing a floral fiesta called Sketch in Bloom, celebrating The National Gallery’s 200th birthday. Running until 27 May 2024, this exhibition pays homage to art legends like Alfred Sisley, JMW Turner, and Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder. Inside, you’ll find massive dried floral displays in see-through glass panels that look like they’ve been plucked straight from a surrealist painting.
