Eating London: Bute Street, SW7

11/18/2008 (11:09 am)

Bute Street in South Kensington is my favorite place to grab a bite to eat in London. In addition to Malibu Bute, which makes good coffee and freshly squeezed juices/smoothies (popular with local yummy mummies), there is Mona Lisa cafe, Bon Bouche, Oddonos, and Perfect Pizza. At Mona Lisa cafe fantastic paninis and sandwiches can be found and at Bon Bouche I prefer the mini quiches or ham and cheese on baguette. Oddonos is an amazing gelato shop which is a must stop because, in their own words, life is too short to eat bad ice cream. And finally there is the Perfect Pizza. It might look dingy, and it is, but the ‘Pound Pizza’ is a treat. A little mini pizza for £1!!!

Eating London: The Nordic Bakery

07/31/2008 (9:21 am)

The Nordic Bakery is located in Golden Square, SoHo. The atmosphere is modern and simple, achieved through sleek dark wood furniture and dim lighting. Options for what to eat are limited, but nonetheless yummy. An assortment of sandwiches such as salmon and ham and cheese on the bakery’s signature rye bread are freshly made, however it is the cinnamon buns that make the line run out the door. Steaming hot from the oven, they are soft and gooey and surprisingly not disgusting. Another must try delicacy are the rice cakes coated in homemade butter. Two sandwiches and two drinks were 10.70 making the Nordic a decently healthy home run.
