Photo Blog at The Wharf, Bo Phut, Koh Samui, Thailand.
With great memories from our first visit, Tree Tops Sky Dining & Bar, Anantara has to be our favourite restaurant in the world.
London is packed full of remarkable restaurants, so it can be rather overwhelming when one is asked to choose a favourite. That was until we discovered The Café at Hotel Café Royal. As the first dessert restaurant in London to be serving three courses of decadent dessert, it’s affirmed, this is our absolute favourite. Expectations are always going to be set high when you walk into the five star, opulent Hotel Café Royal. The décor is sophisticated and the marble gives a feeling of grandeur. Executive Pastry Chef, Sarah Barber has ingeniously formulated an Alice in Wonderland inspired menu, with exquisite desserts that are as much a feast for the eyes as they are tantalizing to the taste buds. The delicious deconstructed Rhubarb & Custard is served as a chilled crumble in a petite pot, rhubarb topped with a vanilla custard and a sugar dusted pastry. The Chantilly Cream served in a tube is a lovely accompaniment. The Eat Me, Drink Me is a charming combination of creamy layers with nutty chocolate, topped with a peanut brittle and a caramel cream served with a malt shake in glass bauble. The Jaffa Cake in no way resembles a simple Jaffa Cake. There’s […]
Some may better know Asha Bhosle for her music but we can’t get over her amazing restaurants that celebrate Indian cuisine. The traditional North Indian cuisine is authentic, with a rather contemporary, modern take. Asha’s first restaurant is housed in the Pyramids of Wafi Mall and has stood the test of time. It is as stylish and just as brilliant today as we remember it from when we first visited a good ten years ago. Lassi is an acquired taste, which simply put is an Indian milkshake. It can be served salty or sweet and is a cooling yoghurt drink that essentially makes a great accompaniment to a spicy meal. If Lassi is not your thing the mocktails at Asha’s are so delicious. The Truly Berry is so refreshing as a muddle of berries, lemon and ice. The poppadums are served with a range of delicious chutneys, with the mint and mango being our favourite. Spicy, sweet and perfect to dip into and whet the appetite. Asha’s have a new menu at Wafi Mall, that’s absolutely “Fit for a King.” The menu is inspired by street food classics that have been given a modern resurrection. The Aloo Khusnuma Potato barrels stuffed with paneer, dry fruits and […]
FIshmore Hall Hotel & Spa is nestled in an acre of land in the scenic village of Ludlow. It’s a Georgian country house with 15 comfortable, and neatly appointed rooms. Our room was minimalistic with quite daring red walls and satin sheets. The view from the room overlooked the picturesque Shropshire countryside. The room has a nifty coffee machine, and Elemis amenities that are great for use in the inviting tub. It’s the brand spanking new spa and the exceptional 3 AAA rosette restaurant that are really what make Fishmore Hall worth a visit. The newly opened spa is a new concept, eco modular SpaShell. The spa arrived ready assembled and miraculously fitted in just a few days. It’s unbelievable, as although it’s quaint, the pristine spa is fully equipped and has rather stylish treatment rooms with showers and a state of the art sauna and steam room. With so many buttons to fiddle with is it’s easy to get distracted. You can’t even begin to imagine how many options there are, to change the ambience of a steam room. Change the colours according to your mood, and the music to relax to, whilst adding in the odd breeze and rain shower. […]

Looking for something slightly different to cater your next event or meeting? Have you tried Hummus Bros? “Give peas a chance” and you will look no further after you see their spread. It’s impressive, fresh and deliciously inspired by the Mediterranean. Fully loaded bowls with hummus smeared strategically on the bottom of the bowl, before being piled high with chicken, falafel, tabouleh, chilli sauce and a drizzle of lemon before being sprinkled with paprika. Served with a flatbread or carrots, this is hearty and wholesome and will leave you content and craving more. Catch them at their pop up events or one of their four London branches. Hummus Bros, Wardour Street
