into the 2nd of the summer bank holiday weekends here and things could not be more delightful... i can't believe how nice the weather is... and what better way to spend it that discovering new neighborhoods!
today was spent in broadway market with an old but new hoya friend... lots to take in, from the delish lunch we had (cold meze platter and lamb with turkish beer) to the delightful sights and sounds of the market and london fields near by...
a couple of things to note:
1) apparently it is totally fine to start a bbq in the middle of the park. forget the english obsession with safety... open fires do not qualify as a hazard, or so it seems.
2) apparently it is also fine to hang outside a pub all day (love the name - "the cat and mutton") with your 2 children... strollers and Stellas, what a combo!
but, hey, i just got here.. and what do i know... i mean, hot and jellied eels sounds pretty damn tasty to me!
fabulousness! I'm dreaming of jellied eels (read having nightmares)!!!
ReplyDeletePlease tell me you sampled the hot jellied eel? That is simply...disgusting.
