Must try in Harlow – Mui & Koko Noodle Bar

Dann and I go to Mui & Koko Noodle Bar roughly twice a month, and have done so for well over a year. We actually call Mui & Koko Noodle Bar “King Du”, which was their previous name, years and years back. They are a Chinese, Japanese and Korean noodle bar, with tons of huge dishes at very good prices. We tend to go often as on Wednesdays we run an event in Harlow Town with our Pokemon Go group. Every other week, we then meet up with our friends from Birmingham and a few regulars to the Pokemon Go event, we all go out to dinner, and then we go to the movies afterwards! Mui & Koko Noodle Bar is quick, delicious, and consistently all of our favorites.

Watching The Baddies at Cadogan Hall Theatre

[Ad- gifted experience] The Baddies is a very popular children’s book written and illustrated by Julia Donaldson, which has been turned into an hour long stage performance! We went along to the show at Cadogan Hall Theatre, which was a new theatre for us. There is a main hall, where they had a background for pictures and a little stand selling The Baddies book, along with other items from other books written by the same author. There was also a little bar and a lot of seating – with plenty of options for snacks for children.

Picking Our Own Wild Flowers at Writtle Sunflowers

Dann and I often go to a pick your own flower place, but after last year’s confetti flower farm, Amelia had asked if she could come along! So, while Kai was off doing his work experience, Amelia, Robin, Dann and I headed to Writtle Sunflowers, to pick our own sunflowers and wildflowers. Writtle Sunflowers is located at Pooty Pools Farm, which has been farmed by the Metson family for over 100 years, with three generations of the family currently working on the farm.

Enjoying Balloons and Tunes UK

Were I lived in America, we had hot air balloons all the time. It was normal to be driving down the road to the shop and see hot air balloons flying in the summertime. My cousin, right now, in America, drives hot air balloons. It’s always been something that felt magical and fun! In the United Kingdom, it more rare to see hot air balloons, as it always seems too windy for them – but we were excited to attend the Balloons and Tunes UK event, specifically their Essex one, as they are bringing balloons, tunes, and entertainment all around the UK.
