Review: Noodle Inn, Liverpool Street
Noodle Inn is known for their huge Soho queues that go around the corner but there’s a reason why everyone is queuing up: a combination of those deliciously fresh hand-pulled oil spill noodles and a lot of social media hype. Noodle Inn has now opened up a bigger second branch in Liverpool Street in which […]
Shake Shack London are now serving halal beef burgers
It was only a few years ago when we found out the glorious news of Shake Shack offering halal chicken items on their menu and whilst some of us jumped at the chance to check it out, most of us still longed to get our hands on one of their classic beef burgers. Not in […]
Where to Find the Best Halal Broasted Chicken in London
If you’re old-ish like me, you’ll remember when chicken shops were one of the few places offering halal food back in the day. We lived through the era of spicy, peppery wings from Chicken Cottage, the crispy tenders and chips from various street food vendors (shoutout to Mother Clucker), and the sweet-and-spicy yangnyeom chicken trend […]
Taco Bell UK Serving Halal in Certain Branches
Did you guys know that some of the Taco Bell shops are halal in the UK? Yes, we’re actually one whole year late to this news and you’re perhaps rolling your eyes whilst reading this post. BUT at HGAT, we believe that late is better than never so we headed out to one of the […]
Product Review: The Ojos Foods
The Ojos Foods is an award-winning, family-run business that has been in operation for over 30 years. So, to say they know a thing or two about what makes good charcuterie meat is an understatement. We’ve also worked with them on several projects before on HGAT and have tried almost every halal product they sell. […]
Chicken Shawarma
Since Ramadan is over, dinner in my house is returning to a somewhat healthy state. No deep-frying, unless its doughnuts because no one can say no to doughnuts, and no desserts, unless it’s ice cream, chocolatey, pastry, or cookie based. Okay, basically it doesn’t seem like much has changed but pinky promise, I’m trying to […]
Gunpowder Tower Bridge
Last week, something TERRIBLE happened to me and I blame BW 98%. It was 10am and I was tending to child, when the front door rang. You see, BW was expecting a very, very important package and it was estimated to be delivered between 12-2pm. I couldn’t miss it, so I quickly hop, skipped, and […]
Halal Options at Winter Wonderland
For my 16th birthday, TEN years ago, I had booked a large Hummer limousine to take me and my friends to Winter Wonderland for ice skating, followed by a meal at Planet Hollywood. Oh and there was a “neon” dress code too. I’m cringing as I type this – ugh. ANYWAYS back to the point, […]
CHIK’N
A couple of weeks back, I decided to take a step on the scales for the first time since my delivery. Mind you, almost 9 weeks had passed so a good chunk must have melted off. I was SHOCKED, no, APPALLED at the number on the weighing scale – I clearly still have a whopping […]
Maison Bab
I realise it’s been a while since I’ve posted a restaurant review, although it doesn’t feel that long to me. You see, I had a baby a couple of months ago for those of you who didn’t know, and it feels like time has just blurred together in my baby brain. But, I would never […]
