Burgeri
For the last few months of summer, BW and I have had a lovely temporary addition in our household. You see, BW’s mum (MIL) has been over from Dubai, bringing all her warmth, positive vibes, and yummy food along with her, and spoiling us with her love. Everyday, BW and I would come home to […]
Texas Grill, Southampton
A few weeks ago, BW and I took a much needed trip down South. Ramadhan was finishing, I was definitely malnourished from those long hours, and work was driving BW crazy; I guess life had got the best of both of us. So we made a spontaneous journey to the super, duper romantic city of […]
HGAT Guide to Amsterdam
Want to know how to win a way into my heart? Presents. Not giving them, obviously, but receiving them. Ripping open the wrapping paper to reveal the gift of your dreams is what I would wait for for 364 days every year until my birthday came along. Now that I’m married, it seems that I’m […]
Halal Girl About Birmingham – Tru Burger
It all started at the beginning of HGAT when I visited London’s first halal gourmet burger joint; I loved it and decided to write up my review. Three years and 30(!) halal burger joints later, my love for gourmet burgers has not changed, but I have to say I have struggled to find somewhere new […]
Siirgista Bros
A couple of months ago, a handful of us halal food bloggers were invited to a burger restaurant for a free meal in return for a review. BW and I were given plenty of dishes to taste, had a chat with the owner, and left the establishment feeling that the food was decent but not […]
Five Guys, Dubai
This year, London was a little funny, weather wise. The snow decided to be a no-show, the summer was scorching hot (only during Ramadhan though – lucky us), and I swear autumn only lasted a day. Suddenly, winter appeared along with it’s bitter cold temperature and this crazy wind that is blowing everyone away! Lucky […]
Brioche Burger
A few weeks ago, I was invited over to Brioche Burger allllllll the way in Green Street. If you guys remembered, a couple of posts ago, I mentioned that I would cover that huge gaping hole on the East side of my HGAT map, and after my 1.5 hour journey to Brioche Burger, I now […]
Smoky Boys
Having just surpassed my one year wedding anniversary, I have certainly learnt a lot about BW, husbands, and marriage in general. It’s funny to look back when I first started dating BW, and think that everything about him was amazing; he was the most perfect, flawless human I had ever come across. Two years later, […]
Christopher’s
As you all know, my lovely sister got hitched about five years ago and moved an eight hour flight journey away to the States. Since then, I’ve taken it upon myself to celebrate every U.S. holiday possible just so I can feel a teeny bit closer to her. It also means BW takes his eyes […]
Farm Fresh Burgers
Ramadhan, as believed from the perspective of the older crowd, is the best month of the year; they don’t complain about their grumbling stomachs, headaches, or how thirsty they are, but simply smile throughout the day and comment on how much they love fasting. Then you have people like me. I’m the type who gets […]
