Boondocks
Due to my long list of restaurants to visit, it is scarce that I revisit an establishment more than once. The place would really have to be good for me to want to go back, or perhaps I’m just in the area with friends and thought the food was alright. So when Boondocks, Stax’s new […]
Flaming Cow
As of a few weeks ago, BW has had the utmost pleasure of sharing his car with me, and I can’t tell you guys how much I love it. With my past history of writing cars off and almost driving us over the cliffs in Costa Rica, I was very surprised that BW agreed on […]
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 […]
Mother Clucker
When I think of school, my fondest memories are those frequent visits after school to all those halal fried chicken shops on the high street. The spicy wings at Chicken Cottage were a weekly staple and I was, unashamedly, a regular at Sam’s, with my classic strips burger and chilli sauce. PFC, XFC, HFC, Al Halal […]
Potbelly
You ever had one of those days at work where you look at your lunchbox and sigh? I think I’ve been like this every day since primary school. I would look at the other kid’s lunchboxes in envy; nutella in crusty bread, choc dips, pizza! I would look down at my own and see a […]
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 […]
Drunch
As you may remember, I mentioned I may have gained a few extra unwanted pounds but have been eating super healthy since (with the exception of that amazing, salted caramel cruffin) and I’m seeing them magically melt right off! Now I’ve suddenly become one of those people who like to bore everyone around them with […]
BIRD
For a food blogger, coming across cool, new restaurants is an easy task. The hard part is just choosing the best out of the bunch to blog about. Now for a halal food blogger its a little different, there simply isn’t a huge amount to choose and even less so if you are looking beyond […]
Stax Diner
Last Sunday, I was in a bit of a dilemma. Seeing as Ramadhan was beginning the next day and the thoughts of 20 hour fasts were running through my mind, I was having problems deciding on what deserved to be my last meal. It needed to be something fattening, something sweet, and definitely something absolutely […]
