Family Dinner at Gonzos Tea Room

Posted on July 8, 2024January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

At the end of May, we celebrated our 5 year anniversary of being a family. Five years feels impossibly long, and we spent a lot of time this year reflecting on our lives. One of the things Dann and I wanted to do was re-visit our first family outing. You see, the first time we went out as a family unit, we went to the Norwich Gaming Festival and then had dinner at Gonzos Tea Room! At the time, Robin was so little that she didn’t really eat (nor does she remember much of it), where as Kai and Amelia had a very limited pallet. Going back with them being so much older was such a fantastic time and the food did not disappoint!

Lunch at Gilpin Spice – pan-Asian food

Posted on June 28, 2024January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

While on our anniversary in the Lakes, we always are looking for fun food to try. We both really enjoy Asian food, so on the more rainy day, we decided to go for a big lunch at Gilpin Spice, which is a restaurant attached to a hotel. You do not need to be staying at the hotel to eat here and can easily walk in and enjoy the menu that they have on offer. When we went, at about 1pm, it wasn’t too busy at all. The venue itself had bar seating that looked straight into the kitchen, as well as a bunch of tables and booths. We opted to watch the chefs cook our food! They do have a short menu at Gilpin Spice, but everything smells and tastes fantastic.

Flesh & Buns – Fantastic Japanese Bao Restaurant

Posted on June 7, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I are really big fans of Japanese food, especially bao buns. Dann actually has tried his hand at creating homemade baos, which turned out delicious. When we were invited to Flesh & Buns, we were instantly excited to try out the boas they had on offer. Flesh & Buns has a few different locations in London, each with a signature dish. We went to Oxford Circus, but ended up splitting a platter so didn’t try the specific items for that location.

Dinner at Singer Tavern

Posted on February 12, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Singer Tavern is a quant, well lit, airy bar that is located on Old Street. Dann and I went to have dinner at Singer Tavern as apart of a work event with Dann’s company. It was really lovely to be invited along. We selected all of our choices before attending, and then they brought out our food in courses. The staff themselves were very kind and accommodating – when one of the dishes came out quite overcooked, they quickly replaced it!

Lunch at Yuce’s Mediterranean Restaurant

Posted on January 29, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

We had a special lunch date with Robin, as she didn’t have school and her siblings did. These sorts of days are so special – one on one time is rare with such a big, adventurous family. When we asked Robin where she wanted to go, she wanted to try out Yuce’s, as it looks so fancy from the outside and she had never been. Dann and I had gone a couple of times, and were excited to try new food with her. Yuce’s is a Mediterranean Restaurant that has a nightclub above it. They have an expansive cocktail menu, and some great lunch deals as well.
