A Day Out at Clip n’ Climb Chelsea

[Ad- gifted experience] Rock climbing is something that, as a kid, I use to do regularly through school. My school had a rock wall and part of Gym Class required you to go on the wall every few months. As an adult, I must say, that I have not really gone out climbing in a long time. Dann and I, enticed in by bright colors and the want for a fun evening, went to Clip n’ Climb Chelsea to see how the adult, after work hours slots would be.

28-50 Wine Bar & Kitchen Fondue Festival | Review

Both Dann and Jupiter went to a Fondue Festival at the 28-50 Wine Bar & Kitchen, who do yearly Fondue Festivals in London. These take place each Tuesday through February, March and April. We’re not sure if Festival makes a lot of sense in this use, as it’s not really a Festival and more of a sit down dinner but only there for a limited amount of time. Dann really wanted to go, so we both grabbed up some tickets and figured we’d see what happens. Neither of us had been to 28-50 Wine Bar & Kitchen, nor had we had Fondue before, so it was an interesting time.

The first thing worth noting is that you are going to need to go to the Fondue Festival with a friend, as it’s a minimum of two people per fondue. The price is set at £34.95 per person, stacking as you add more people to it. The festival tickets include a set menu – we weren’t even shown a normal menu – which you get to eat from. The venue itself is very upscale, we were quite under dressed, and is a dark and moody place.

Bone Daddies – Japanese Soul Food | Restaurant Review

It’s no secret that I love Japanese food, I adore a good ramen, a well made broth, a bunch of different toppings. I like eating a variety of food, but after months of lockdown, I just wanted a bowl of ramen. I was absolutely delighted that Bone Daddies in London opened back up (with social distancing measures) to serve some food I hadn’t had in far too long. Dann and I went along to the first weekend they opened back up, hoping to be warmed on a rainy day by a nice bowl of soup.

Pho Battersea – Restaurant | Review

We saw that the Battersea location of Pho was having a refurbishment launch, offering 50% off all of it’s menu items for one weekend only and we had to go check it out. The venue was packed, with a full bar and all the seats were full. We didn’t have to wait too long for a table to free up though! The venue itself is quite nice, though it’s a bit dark when it comes to lighting, apart from spotlights that literally shine on a single person in one of the seats, which feels odd.

A Day Out at the Natural History Museum London

During the half term, we decided to take the family out to the Natural History Museum in London. Most of the museums in London are free, though they are packed during the school breaks – it’s a good chance to get some learning into the break and have a day out with the kids! Getting to the museum was an easy journey, and though there was a bit of a queue, we lasted it with snacks and went right in. The Natural History Museum is one that could take several days to fully explore, but we spent some time in the Creepy Crawly bit, the Hall of Birds, Evolution of Humans and the Volcano area.
