Trying the Little Big Flavour Kits Pineapple Curry

Trying the Little Big Flavour Kits Pineapple Curry

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to trying new foods, often these types of easy-to-use kits are a great introduction! I had not ever heard of a pineapple, meat-free curry, but was very excited to try the Little Big Flavours Kits Pineapple Curry. We took this kit on holiday with us to Center Parcs Elveden, as it only takes a few ingredients and creates a lot of easy, delicious food. It felt like the perfect little kit to have in our cabin, ready for a meal in. We’ve tried Little Big Flavour Kits before, so this felt like a great thing to have in our bag. If this or any of their kits is something you want to try, you can get 15% off until the end of September by using code JUPITER15 on their website.

Fancy Dinner at El Brellin

Fancy Dinner at El Brellin

Posted on by Jupiter

Dann and I wanted to go to a more fancy dinner while in Milan, and what better place than along the river in Vicolo dei Lavandai! There was tons of night life in the area, lots of different restaurants, but we walked along until we saw El Brellin tucked away, with upscale Italian food. Previously, this building was an old grocery store, where women who washed clothing would grab supplies. The layout hasn’t changed much, still showcasing the 1700s fireplace and coffered ceilings. We were excited to try the menu after seeing some of the selection. They have an ever changing menu, so I cannot find an accurate menu of what we had, so these names may have changed.

SnackMagic - Gifting Lots of Snacks

SnackMagic – Gifting Lots of Snacks

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] I feel that hampers are one of the best types of gifts to get, especially if the hamper has items in it that you’d use and eat. SnackMagic is an interesting way of giving gifts, as you would set your budget, then gift the ability for your friend to pick which hamper they’d like to receive. I selected the Taste of America snack box, though there was an American chocolate bar specific box, along with a large number of other snack boxes, pampering boxes, and so much more. It actually took a while for me to choose, but I felt this box would give me some nostalgia and also allow me to share some unique items with our children.

The Steak Board at Baha Bowness

The Steak Board at Baha Bowness

Posted on by Jupiter

Each year, for our anniversary, we go to The Lakes Hotel and Spa, and while there go out for food nearby. Dann picked out Baha Bowness, which was right near another restaurant we quite enjoyed, as a new place to try out. Their food looked good, a nice Korean-fusion going on, and it didn’t match that of the pubs that can be found in the area – which is exactly what we were looking for. The general vibes were great – fantastic music and good staff. It’s also a dog friendly venue, which works well with all of the people walking their dogs along the lake. They also have live music on a lot of the nights, if that’s something you’re into.

Must try in Harlow - Mui & Koko Noodle Bar

Must try in Harlow – Mui & Koko Noodle Bar

Posted on by Jupiter

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.
