The restaurant is very popular … Continue reading Lorenzo of Shirley

When I was putting my Reading List together I came across the book collecting dust. I am now determined to tick all the places off. I have put a list together and will tick them off as I go along. Here goes. … Continue reading London Town

The Ivy Chelsea Garden is on King’s Road and only a short walk from Sloane Square tube station. As soon as we exited Sloane Square tube station we saw rows of designer shops … Continue reading Dinner at The Ivy Chelsea Garden
What other way could I spend Easter Monday then at London Zoo? It was my first time visiting the zoo which is bad due to the fact I have lived in London all my life. I was so excited to be ticking off another item off my Bucket List (see blog post here). My friend Julianah and her daughter Kiki were coming down from Milton … Continue reading My Trip to London Zoo

We decided to make … Continue reading Waitress The Musical and Ping Pong Restaurant
