Review: Big Fernand Paris
One of the joys (and bragging rights) of living in London is being able to hop a train and find yourself in Paris in a couple of hours. And it’s even better when work splurges on your ticket for business class on the Eurostar (which has surprisingly decent food and drink on offer). My standard … Continue reading
Review: One Canada Square Restaurant

Luckily, they’ve moved a bit more central and to a more casual menu with Brioche just off the Strand. It’s primarily a burger joint so the menu is … Continue reading
