I love Maltby St market. There I’ve said it. Although, a few months ago I doubt I would have really considered it as a weekend outing given the effort it usually takes me to get moving on a Saturday morning. But hunger struck, the fridge was woefully understocked, and for some reason the sun decided … Continue reading

BurgerQuest: Mother Flipper
Mother Flipper was suggested as something approximating a US burger and since it’s only 4 miles from my house I thought I’d give it a go one fine Saturday morning.

A lazy Sunday of chips, cheese, and donuts
This past Sunday, I gave up on the pretense of being healthy and started off with a breakfast of Philly Cheese Steak Poutine from @ThePoutinerie on Brick Lane before a late lunch of donuts from the @GlazedandConfused launch event hosted by @SharpsBarbers. The Poutinerie Poutine is a classic Canadian dish that’s slowly making an appearance … Continue reading

K-Town Shoreditch – Jubo’s KFC bird is the word
Jubo has taken up residence in the Bedroom Bar Shoredtich and is turning out some delicious Korean style fried chicken.

Ribstock – 10 chefs, 10 ribs, only one belly
This past Saturday was the second coming of @Tweat_Up’s Ribstock.

I gave up a Royal Ascot ticket to make it to this epic feat celebrating meat. … Continue reading
Kerb Round Up – Yum Bun, Horn Ok Please, Kimchinary, & The Bowler
Many times, I think that I should save a bit of money and get a £3 Sainsbury’s meal deal. But inevitably, particularly on Thursdays & Fridays, I will glance at the Kerb Gherkin Market roster and there is always at least one trader that gets me hooked. In this case, there were four. Kerb is … Continue reading
