I made to the end of another week it’s been 45 days of ‘lockdown’. It’s going to be a sunny weekend, I feel like I should remind you all to stay safe.. remember to wear sun screen!! Ha! what am I like eh? The song that comes to mind for today is Everybody’s Free by Baz Luhrmann.
Soup of the day: Velvet aubergine
Salads of the day: Panzanella with feta · Spring green + tomato pasta
I wake up at 6:30am everyday. In Winter it’s hard waking up to darkness but in Summer I find I wake up and I jump out of bed humming Hall & Oats You Making My Dreams. If you wake up and you feel a dark cloud over your head I suggest you use this method to make yourself feel better. This is not a definite cure… I am not a doctor.
Soup of the day: Tuscan bean + tomato
Salads of the day: Aubergine + aduki beans in black bean sauce · mushroom + bacon pearl barley
There is something about knowing it’s a 4 day working week that is just filling me with energy! The sun is shining people are in a seemingly good mood what is there to be down about?! Oh yeah… There’s a global pandemic.

Sandwich of the day: Roast beef · Tetilla cheese · onion relish + tomato
Salads of the day: Rainbow rice · Courgette · tomato + basil pasta
This weekend was bliss, for me the weather was perfect! I decided to take my dog on an 8 mile walk through the back roads in Chelsea, Knightsbridge and South Ken. What is usually a tourist hot-spot was eerily quiet. So when I say ‘i’m loving lockdown’ i’s for moments like that which I will never again get to experience. You know what I mean?

Salads of the day: Ratatouille styled rice · Broccoli · chilli + garlic pasta
When you first come to North St. you might be a bit put off by the conversations that take place, they’re the same conversations that take place in a dimly lit room where alcohol is present. If you can move pass the better lighting and swap your martini for a flat white (alternative milks available) you’ll find a new culture. I call it the daytime pub.
Soup of the day: Thai spiced vegetables
Sandwich of the day: Pastrami, French brie, Branston relish + tomato
Salad of the day: Veggie chow mein
Not a soul seen expect the labourers who have no choice but to face the storm. I think this is what the government imagined when they said lockdown. The lack of customers has not stopped Mad (the chef) from putting on a show. She’s only gone and done stuffed portobello mushrooms!!
Salads of the day: Cauliflower pesto pasta · Chilli CON carne
Soup of the day: Velvet mushroom
Would you still wait in a queue if it’s raining outside. I wonder. Also is it bad that I ask people what they did over the weekend? Does it sound like i’m taking the mick? I personally had a great time home manicure, bit of carpentry and I made macaroons.
Sandwich of the day: Chorizo, strong Spanish creamy cheese, Cornichon, Tomato + onion relish
Soup of the day: Potato + broccoli
Salads of the day: veggie pasta bake · miso aubergine rice noodle salad

Salads of the day: Squash + rosemary pasta · Lentil feta + tomato salad · Paprika prawn + potato
Soup of the day: Courgette · tomato + basil
We got in some new cheeses today it felt like Christmas morning opening up our delivery. It’s the small joys in life I find i’m really having an appreciation for at the moment. Taking this new way of life one day at a time has been the key for me to stay sane. That and a 10 kilogram delivery of cheese.
Salads of the day: Turmeric roasted courgette + cannellini beans · Sausage + tomato rice
Soup of the day: Spicy tomato

Soup of the day: Aubergine + tomato

Today a queue formed of people waiting for a dose of pick me up juice. I think people are really bored now and with the prospects of another 3 weeks in lockdown many who have started random hobbies for entertainment have the potential of becoming the master of a new trait.
Soup of the day: Indian spiced lentil · carrot + corriander
Salads of the day: Aubergine + tomato pasta · Cannellini beans with beetroot, carrot + dill
This morning has been reminiscent of a time before the pandemic, but the BBC remind me every 30 minutes that we are still in the midst of a crisis. Bit of a mood killer.
