The 90's are making a total comeback and so is the ultimate sunglass brand of that era. Ray ban and the Wayfarers did it a few years ago, now it is time for Oakley and their Frogskins. Whether you're skiing in the Alps or surfing the Pacific, it is the ultimate accessory! The A - List have already been spotted wearing them. You can find Oakley at Shoreditch's brand new Boxpark at Unit 27.Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-77511542959892843302012-01-28T09:48:00.000+00:002012-01-28T09:51:31.423+00:00Three Floor Fashion<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Central Saint Martins graduate Han Chong and his label Three Floor is my latest fashion obsession. I first came across him a couple of months ago on a Vogue feature and completely fell in love with his collection. I got even more excited when I realised how reasonable his prices were. As cheeky as I am, I hate to share such great fashion finds with the rest of the world but this one I have to give it you ;). Make you sure you grab one of these frocks before he becomes really big and prices go sky rocket high from www.threefloorfashion.com .Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-34778184750475148222011-12-20T00:37:00.000+00:002011-12-20T00:37:33.404+00:00Somerset House Ice Rink<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

With club nights featuring Joey Negro and The Ministry of Sound to ice dance lunch time workouts, a skate school for small and bigger kids and a Tiffany and Co "Tuck Shop" this is one festive activity not to be missed.

Having temporarily relocated to the hip East End, I decided that my mission should be to explore and discover as much as I could about this constantly evolving part of London. My latest obsession is Columbia Road on a Sunday! Especially during this festive season, when everything is so nicely decorated and the street smells of mulled wine and Christmas trees being sold at the flower market. Among the cutest little shops, I came across a courtyard with even more cute shops and an incredible bakery: Lily Vanilli. The place was packed with people enjoying hot drinks and marvellous cakes indoors as well as outdoors. Obviously I gave into the temptation and left with a selection of cupcakes, the most AMAZING triple choc brownie ever and a decadent chocolate and sour cherry cake. I also set my eyes on the fresh mince pies that had just come out of the oven but "luckily" enough I had no more cash on me. The only downside about this place is that it only opens on Sundays, as most of the shops on the street. However, you can pre order anything you want, customise your own cake and also have them cater your tea party.Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-80908533042226440672011-09-12T12:34:00.001+01:002011-12-18T12:31:29.410+00:00Salt and Chocolate<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqjEqPE6jci3_oICQnSQGvCdoFA5C6ViGYA_FCArIf3TvDUGc57cNkLuyNLOAJ18wNJV3cSH99BoyJOEoa1vTgJPfglN_IKBIanFxZ4nRvV5HSoDLHlBWUAKB53SsnXQy0z1YPAMBf7FNz/s1600/SC-CHAMPAGNE.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="398" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqjEqPE6jci3_oICQnSQGvCdoFA5C6ViGYA_FCArIf3TvDUGc57cNkLuyNLOAJ18wNJV3cSH99BoyJOEoa1vTgJPfglN_IKBIanFxZ4nRvV5HSoDLHlBWUAKB53SsnXQy0z1YPAMBf7FNz/s400/SC-CHAMPAGNE.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ocXLaNOoDagyLqa6drfQ01S-nPeE39oAym5jaIAAlBT53fn0kotR5Agll82-oUhETWKUskDDcldg_J_fW8uQP5g5GBwGc8ForV377msaKsJjCYbOC37pU5Izh-3H2cc4bHhmAmn79pAK/s1600/sc-nail-bar-london.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ocXLaNOoDagyLqa6drfQ01S-nPeE39oAym5jaIAAlBT53fn0kotR5Agll82-oUhETWKUskDDcldg_J_fW8uQP5g5GBwGc8ForV377msaKsJjCYbOC37pU5Izh-3H2cc4bHhmAmn79pAK/s400/sc-nail-bar-london.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><br />

Then, right across my restaurant on Walton Street, Salt and Chocolate finally opened. Not only this is "decent", it is nail treatment in heaven. The girls are so friendly and kind and their skills and professionalism spot on. Moreover, Salt and Chocolate always hosts photography exhibitions on its walls including the works of Terry O'neill, Bob Carlos Clarke, Joseph Ford, Shlomi Nissim and Quin Murray. Also, Salt and Chocolate now stocks a fine selection of jewellery including Felder&Felder, Belle Sauvage, Jayce Wong, Susan Shi and Yuki Mitsuyasu. So chose one of the hottest new season OPI colours, seat back on the massaging armchair, one sip of champagne and enjoy that pedicure. That's what I call a treat!

Baity Kitchen is our cosy deli restaurant situated on Walton Street, Chelsea. The concept behind it was to serve high quality food inspired by our Greek and Palestinian backgrounds without any of your typical Chelsea frills. The atmosphere is always relaxed, our staff extra friendly and the food reminds you of mum's kitchen (Baity also means "home" in Arabic).Open seven days a week, our menu changes on a daily basis according to seasonal ingredients and the chefs' inspiration. Among favourites, you will find Sayadieh (yummy marinated cod with cumin rice and a yogurt-tahini dressing), Pastitsio (Greeks' answer to Lasagna), White truffle macaroni and cheese, Gemista (peppers, tomatoes and aubergines stuffed with rice in a rich tomato sauce), Mjadarra (puy lentil with basmati rice, caramelised onions, pomegranate and rocket) and the list goes on...Not to mention the signature choc chip scones, the brownies, the choc cookies and the lemon meringue tarts. I look forward to seeing you all there!Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-37092249542656117022010-11-29T15:20:00.002+00:002010-11-29T18:07:53.943+00:00Mandarin Kitchen<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpxz1SZxeBeVMwom7iIfvBo4IffO7VPttHoVhyyLJSps4gZmNPnzMpLOal2AfPCJFPTH08MzO3xcD780h_7MJ-ZCyVrFBIrjzGor1k7Fj5WGDi9BRZcJqtJ1rRQY7AtGMtRQdZ1VK5r7z/s1600/3967187078_79447a0ff8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpxz1SZxeBeVMwom7iIfvBo4IffO7VPttHoVhyyLJSps4gZmNPnzMpLOal2AfPCJFPTH08MzO3xcD780h_7MJ-ZCyVrFBIrjzGor1k7Fj5WGDi9BRZcJqtJ1rRQY7AtGMtRQdZ1VK5r7z/s400/3967187078_79447a0ff8.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />

The reason that God created lobster..is non other than Mandarin Kitchen's lobster noodle. An all time classic, this place never disappoints me. Specialising in seafood, there is a great range of spectacular dishes to chose from, but obviously the lobster noodle is the jewel of the crown. Whether you go for garlic and spring onion, ginger and spring onion (highly recommend it), or black bean sauce and chillies...You are going to leave the restaurant craving for some more. Don't expect too much from the decor and be put off by the Queensway location. Mandarin Kitchen is every hip Londoner's seafood destination and with Tatler, Zagat and Taschen on their guards, who can deny it? Once you are done with your lobster, no matter how full you are, you also have to try the toffee bananas. Enjoy!<span><span style="background-color: black;"></span></span><br />

From the minute you walk into this Notting Hill chocolate boutique on Ledbury Road, the magnificent smell of chocolate will make you want to taste and buy literally everything! And the reason for smelling so yummy is that all the chocolates are prepared in the shop's kitchen, just hours before you can buy them.<br />
Using only the finest and natural ingredients, sourced from around the world, the Melt team are obsessed with quality and therefore you won't find any stabilizers or preservatives in their chocolate. Moreover, wanting to make chocolate accessible to all- the shop is open plan where you can "pick your own chocolates" with a wooden tray and tongs. The "hot chocolate" on a stick is my favorite! Next time you are in Notting Hill give it a go. It is sooo worth it!<br />

A dear friend of mine, relatively new in London, had been going on and on about how great a little wine bar and restaurant in Farringdon was. It took us a while, but when we finally visited Vinoteca together, I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised. Small and cosy, wooden tables, candlelit and an impressive wine list from around the world. Moreover, the food is excellent. Head Chef John Murray has joined the Vinoteca team from some of London's top kitchens such as St John Bread & Wine, Petrus, L’Autre Pied and Yauatcha. His style of cooking is inspired by the produce and culinary traditions of Europe’s wine producing regions and with his team creates dishes which perfectly complement the diverse range of wine styles. Simple, hearty dishes made from the highest quality ingredients; the bread is baked freshly on the premises twice a day and the meat comes directly from local Smithfield Market. Make sure you arrive early, as no reservations can be made at dinner time. And this place is always packed.Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-9618321613417252662010-09-24T12:33:00.000+01:002010-09-24T12:33:46.047+01:00Tate Modern Presents: Paul Gauguin<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcpD6niVIEhEBnGU2-uWdDw69xduoTtUB8ySWkcGH6yc8ZridapEAwvgjqTIjqC2wyDwB50gyDXRoCsOYRAs9RL0vuKJqV-3Gw1GanLJgOupUPWfJnyCFhq_V7fpN7XwzHsgdCQOeJYy3I/s1600/gauguin_siesta.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcpD6niVIEhEBnGU2-uWdDw69xduoTtUB8ySWkcGH6yc8ZridapEAwvgjqTIjqC2wyDwB50gyDXRoCsOYRAs9RL0vuKJqV-3Gw1GanLJgOupUPWfJnyCFhq_V7fpN7XwzHsgdCQOeJYy3I/s400/gauguin_siesta.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiFKf_Dd02n_khaghRiGInTSBdNZRIhEu108VQzMlddgb43W8-gxOY-yfs8ry1ZWXUhB8xXh3OxSGWfZgF-srGMCVzdmacQfuELkevM_tfzOQhZw4PmSbh7v-nQAewrnfbzLDEu_PnymGa/s1600/Gauguin-LesMiserables.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="325" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiFKf_Dd02n_khaghRiGInTSBdNZRIhEu108VQzMlddgb43W8-gxOY-yfs8ry1ZWXUhB8xXh3OxSGWfZgF-srGMCVzdmacQfuELkevM_tfzOQhZw4PmSbh7v-nQAewrnfbzLDEu_PnymGa/s400/Gauguin-LesMiserables.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSLVRu8W3S8n7LE9r2ZGp-BJDupDEsmw0n507xm5SILjdOCv-1ps9i5VXj2WljBt4cemg6p4M_dkAPeC_2zipx15OGRI0Pt0NoM87X8C6OzRcuN8vJape5BW7_10y6uEtNvyq7J5fhR57k/s1600/gauguin11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSLVRu8W3S8n7LE9r2ZGp-BJDupDEsmw0n507xm5SILjdOCv-1ps9i5VXj2WljBt4cemg6p4M_dkAPeC_2zipx15OGRI0Pt0NoM87X8C6OzRcuN8vJape5BW7_10y6uEtNvyq7J5fhR57k/s400/gauguin11.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih8vK_HbdF_8hg41vi4UcKfITIi_FYI7kHIXI71Dy7945JliYfPq240sLONtytdS0vtOD_P1EGAygNdhyphenhypheno_hiaUTX4MIdjYbTIzUdpnVObQYeLWSrft9FDpN2Xuo7E6R8FtT68w13LCYVt/s1600/Tahitian+Women+On+the+Beach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih8vK_HbdF_8hg41vi4UcKfITIi_FYI7kHIXI71Dy7945JliYfPq240sLONtytdS0vtOD_P1EGAygNdhyphenhypheno_hiaUTX4MIdjYbTIzUdpnVObQYeLWSrft9FDpN2Xuo7E6R8FtT68w13LCYVt/s400/Tahitian+Women+On+the+Beach.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
Where does one start about Paul Gauguin; one of the world's most famous and best-loved artists from the early 20<sup>th</sup> century. For the first time in the UK in over 50 years, Tate Modern presents an exhibition dedicated to this master French Post-Impressionist, featuring paintings and drawings from around the world. His sumptuous, colourful images of women in Tahiti and beautiful landscape images of Brittany in France are some of the most popular images in Modern art.<br />
<br />
Gauguin was the ultimate global traveller, sailing the South Seas, and living in Peru, Martinique, and Paris among other places. This exhibition explores the role of the myths around the man – Gauguin as storyteller, painting himself as a Christ-like figure or even a demon in his own paintings, religious and mythical symbols in his work, and the manipulation of his own artistic identity. It features many of his iconic paintings, including those showing daily village life from the artist's colony of Pont-Aven in Brittany, nude bathers and haystacks in the Breton landscape, and decorative works such as the carved wooden door panels around Gauguin's hut in the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia.<br />
Gauguin sought to escape European civilisation in the South Seas. Inspired by Tahiti's tropical flora, fauna and island life, he immersed himself in its fast-disappearing local culture to invest his art with deeper meaning, ritual and myth.<br />

Situated in Motcomb Street, one of the cutest streets in Belgravia, the Pantechnicon is one my favourite gastropubs in London. Whether it is a comfort meal, Sunday lunch or a just drinks with your friends, this place will definitely leave you satisfied. The venue is split into two levels, a less formal dining room downstairs (<i>Public House</i> as they call it) and a more formal <i>Dining Room</i> upstairs. Everything on the menu is great but make sure you try their burgers. The meat is excellent and some friends have even claimed that Pantechnicon burgers are the best they ever had.Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-21260475788555565182010-09-16T12:31:00.000+01:002010-09-16T12:31:02.475+01:00London Fashion Week: The Exhibition at Somerset House<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjag1vUIWxJdfZ46FMURlV9ofx-aQ5YAPmQyfPsCqcU3HHa3NwUBlMkq8qDOewX2m8itDB4epysqG_9tWPMbYGG-7bEPNkoV2ZqoVIZLdF5_6RJ36Q2c8mowyTchN_jgSqj-_jEjJDqHlYx/s1600/142880.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjag1vUIWxJdfZ46FMURlV9ofx-aQ5YAPmQyfPsCqcU3HHa3NwUBlMkq8qDOewX2m8itDB4epysqG_9tWPMbYGG-7bEPNkoV2ZqoVIZLdF5_6RJ36Q2c8mowyTchN_jgSqj-_jEjJDqHlYx/s400/142880.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSy3Dv99h5XLBnYDzhzgPjJndoAn_NmTNhzxwzE-NFNOOuuKwja0D8DgWPYeAGodjaZqE3Slg0f7fL0sWNAn6C3dc4ubaOBG2cnLKZuPCQS_hpK1Nt_GDoiAzIcbVMFB7L8aEEhfOswkP6/s1600/142882.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSy3Dv99h5XLBnYDzhzgPjJndoAn_NmTNhzxwzE-NFNOOuuKwja0D8DgWPYeAGodjaZqE3Slg0f7fL0sWNAn6C3dc4ubaOBG2cnLKZuPCQS_hpK1Nt_GDoiAzIcbVMFB7L8aEEhfOswkP6/s400/142882.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_hPTR8V-SURIWrzy3kcR9F5S5uv1vpX3mq9Ud2fjfvi0m5tkW4coxYn_eB-gYBw-VI2sKoI_kK8po4t4lzfMGUpeQ12pgdzre7RRvrQT9rMqNdkYukAYG2nj1miBgzAbnZuA28E7RU7kz/s1600/142883.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_hPTR8V-SURIWrzy3kcR9F5S5uv1vpX3mq9Ud2fjfvi0m5tkW4coxYn_eB-gYBw-VI2sKoI_kK8po4t4lzfMGUpeQ12pgdzre7RRvrQT9rMqNdkYukAYG2nj1miBgzAbnZuA28E7RU7kz/s400/142883.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM_4a54d87SK9bdWJCcni4n-oucPp6nY8_zMhlWux294uxDhcvHAbFxs4vRSk8tfBcHfaBx-8seunXTrjO_oamuOqCQxHOwNIVhyphenhyphen0edTFz0KO61IedxOmTeKgfBXEsoasA2pjY9ckCS4hk/s1600/142886.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM_4a54d87SK9bdWJCcni4n-oucPp6nY8_zMhlWux294uxDhcvHAbFxs4vRSk8tfBcHfaBx-8seunXTrjO_oamuOqCQxHOwNIVhyphenhyphen0edTFz0KO61IedxOmTeKgfBXEsoasA2pjY9ckCS4hk/s400/142886.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi558bX1dCyqsPmF9Gqo0kJQB60Y-VgbN_wllGOKSvEQMFFq0yY3QbUlEeU2YXQ4YPm07L3RbrAogLvXHZxcPfdD7cXXzyhyu7vSP17rB0fD_JVe8EWBBRSGyLt_9nVNweRYIua_IpXyrA/s1600/142887.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi558bX1dCyqsPmF9Gqo0kJQB60Y-VgbN_wllGOKSvEQMFFq0yY3QbUlEeU2YXQ4YPm07L3RbrAogLvXHZxcPfdD7cXXzyhyu7vSP17rB0fD_JVe8EWBBRSGyLt_9nVNweRYIua_IpXyrA/s400/142887.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGAmPl8z6Gqg52-P7G6j_AeXnsK9d_qKPcR2CgBHx0NPvslHsDYa5reHG4iOtqd8Vn2myShkElB7Yy6jWl8gyhprYF8G_nkqSxopjCk6fOxCBbwDdKA4Ifxbx0Y4EQNDYvbnm_IwEXtcZy/s1600/142892.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGAmPl8z6Gqg52-P7G6j_AeXnsK9d_qKPcR2CgBHx0NPvslHsDYa5reHG4iOtqd8Vn2myShkElB7Yy6jWl8gyhprYF8G_nkqSxopjCk6fOxCBbwDdKA4Ifxbx0Y4EQNDYvbnm_IwEXtcZy/s400/142892.jpg" width="267" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT1R640IzoW-MelgYZpnDty0TMGpXpERlQWKjPH7Tnq0P3P3CeNvenoqVslGsHtTOMNu4pDOzUhdZWOpdyU0OE227QS2RG4hhvZZQRPab6m9ujbqyYL5QzLfFdrTDJ-9LnN9mZyWGVOVAX/s1600/142894.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT1R640IzoW-MelgYZpnDty0TMGpXpERlQWKjPH7Tnq0P3P3CeNvenoqVslGsHtTOMNu4pDOzUhdZWOpdyU0OE227QS2RG4hhvZZQRPab6m9ujbqyYL5QzLfFdrTDJ-9LnN9mZyWGVOVAX/s400/142894.jpg" width="267" /></a></div><br />

There is only "one" way to get around London these days and this is non other than cycling. Haven't you heard? "Cycle Chic" is the new chic! Eco friendly, good for your health and a must have accessory for every fashionista (just look at the Sartorialist). Even our mayor, Mr. Boris Johnson, has called upon every Londoner to "sign up and become pioneer members" of his Cycle Hire scheme. So no excuses, even if you don't actually own a bicycle, you can now hire one from every corner in town. And journeys under 30 minutes are free! You can find details on www.tfl.gov.uk.<br />
Moreover, to enhance your "Cycle Chic" style, whether you're a boy or a girl, www.cyclechic.co.uk is a web based outfitter in Hoxton, where you can find all cycle chic essentials!Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-91842960215908404192010-09-07T00:41:00.002+01:002010-09-07T00:47:06.397+01:00Everybody is Talking About: Chin Chin Laboratories<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCuXj40l4vdQNWZEZPNA83K91OQt7mjIKFRSPk8vPdPI6DPcIZ-6XL-acl8lnUnWDIYhuTOylWXCgLTHW8YeYPzpytUNYrgeVppjxkxR-QfNz2dnPHkRQG45lvpQLk2Jj_GKC6Xjq8UwQU/s1600/ccl_chinchinlabs1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCuXj40l4vdQNWZEZPNA83K91OQt7mjIKFRSPk8vPdPI6DPcIZ-6XL-acl8lnUnWDIYhuTOylWXCgLTHW8YeYPzpytUNYrgeVppjxkxR-QfNz2dnPHkRQG45lvpQLk2Jj_GKC6Xjq8UwQU/s400/ccl_chinchinlabs1.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0zI8n776TKjxlhlW9UNI8Z_vfSYuS3OmuWtKv9LQ5vJSSU0WrLZ2OSNz8NgtYnaa29-1_9BoLA3fJFgCZA4e-TAGrxvMnP9BMypog7ZVALsjOZN-snYLfP0h9rqttHfv2VMhaTPKjmfni/s1600/ccl_chinchinlabs3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="287" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0zI8n776TKjxlhlW9UNI8Z_vfSYuS3OmuWtKv9LQ5vJSSU0WrLZ2OSNz8NgtYnaa29-1_9BoLA3fJFgCZA4e-TAGrxvMnP9BMypog7ZVALsjOZN-snYLfP0h9rqttHfv2VMhaTPKjmfni/s400/ccl_chinchinlabs3.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBnvIxTcLcI8_mQwGwQumrKJik50FpRZiFEv7brUUZ-mUDfPIk_e5-Z7xsBw0XeuverqgQtad8RRqgilE8EkN4SSo7vz_4eNXwhyphenhyphenbO_HbYl4CGEtxNlooyih9x95zRUS9FMMPfOmGEuDKd/s1600/ccl_vanilla.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="303" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBnvIxTcLcI8_mQwGwQumrKJik50FpRZiFEv7brUUZ-mUDfPIk_e5-Z7xsBw0XeuverqgQtad8RRqgilE8EkN4SSo7vz_4eNXwhyphenhyphenbO_HbYl4CGEtxNlooyih9x95zRUS9FMMPfOmGEuDKd/s400/ccl_vanilla.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizs_V7xSQekce6A2oUhoqa_IcpU3ND80pHnv7oR4qNzIUdp1PSsxDOUP_YTh6iXfyQqnabTT29PqQYbjXd2QvNAGTfDW-pXAxcVo2jEND3-ja6WHrbwc6K5LZfJgyWXcp4mFZ79eKS8rAA/s1600/Chin-Chin-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="387" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizs_V7xSQekce6A2oUhoqa_IcpU3ND80pHnv7oR4qNzIUdp1PSsxDOUP_YTh6iXfyQqnabTT29PqQYbjXd2QvNAGTfDW-pXAxcVo2jEND3-ja6WHrbwc6K5LZfJgyWXcp4mFZ79eKS8rAA/s400/Chin-Chin-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Let's face it...Lately it has been all about alchemy and new techniques of contemporary cooking i.e. Mr Heston Blumenthal and the lot. Chin Chin Laboratories is Europe’s first ever liquid nitrogen ice cream parlour. An impressive ice cream factory with a touch of the Blumenthals, where the dense, silky, smooth ice cream is prepared before your very eyes in flavours ranging from mince pie, to the less conventional (though completely delicious) basil and crunchy olive oil.<br />
Thanks to the super-fast freezing process, emulsifiers and extra sugars aren’t required, making Chin Chin’s ice cream mercifully light on the gut. Diminished calories aside, the sped-up freezing prevents crystals being formed in the mix, making Chin Chin’s some of the smoothest you’ll ever try.

You might all know Patrick Cox the shoemaker, but only a few of you might know Patrick Cox the baker. That's right, British shoemaker Patrick Cox will tomorrow unveil his latest venture, a Soho bakery set to specialise in all manner of diabetes-inducing treats. Cox’s space will fit seamlessly with the shoe-guru’s sassy aesthetic (and indeed the surrounding area) with glossy black floors, neon signages and big bright disco balls. Very Soho indeed! Inspired by mornings baking with his mother, this is the best of what you get when fashion meets sugar! The ultimate destination for all fashionistas with a sweet tooth! <br />
Cox Cookies & Cake, 13 Brewer Street.<br />

Owned by Sir Terance Conran’s son Tom, this New York-esque diner in Westbourne Park is a big hit with the Notting Hill billies and the likes of Sienna Miller and Emma Watson. Sit in thin booths adorned with large mirrors, and enjoy the selection of milk-shakes (including an alcoholic-flavoured variety) and juicy Aberdeen Angus burgers.<br />

At last we can enjoy all these extravagant truffles, pralines, macaroons, calin fondants and bonbons without having to travel to Belgium, France, Japan, NY... From the packaging to the tasting of the chocolate and the actual shop itself (it feels like a jewelery boutique), Pierre Marcolini is to chocolate what Haute Couture is to fashion. Whether you want to spoil yourself or impress someone, this is the ultimate chocolate destination. And it can't get any better than that.

Born in Magherafelt, Northern Ireland, J. W. Anderson did a degree in menswear at the London College of Fashion. Graduating in 2001, he made his debut at London Fashion Week in September 2007. Combining a love of sinister phenomena with mystical characters in history and literature, Anderson's dramatic aesthetic has made him one of the most intriguing designers in current British fashion.

While I was away on holiday earlier this month, some of my biggest followers and personal friends, went out on scouting for new places to write about in my blog. One of them, came from my fellow Greek friend Alex, who visited The Phene on Phene Str, SW3. All credits to him then.<br />
What used to be legendary footballer's George Best favorite pub, has gone under a complete makeover and now has a deli in the back, towering vases of lilies on the bar and a women’s fashion label (Lily London) upstairs. Moreover there is a heated terrace outside which makes it great for the summer and smokers all year round. The food menu is diverse offering your typical gastropub food with a twist. From feeling salads, to sea bass, burghers, steaks, all day breakfast and delicious desserts it can cover all tastes. There is also a very good wine list, nice cocktails and beer! Esquire magazine recently described The Phene as the place where men can "watch sport, drink beer and keep your girlfriend happy".

I know this one is an absolute classic, and the hip crowd is already familiar with it, but a dinner last night with my friends reminded of how good the food is and I felt the urge to write about it. <br />
Located in Kensington Park Road, one of the cutest streets in Notting Hill, Osteria Basilico is ideal for a romantic first date or any other occasion actually. You can seat outside during the summer - watching Sienna Miller pass by- or indoors during the winter enjoying the warm, rustic typical trattoria environment. But let's face it, it is the great food that will attract you the most. From the mouthwatering antipasti, to the delicious pasta, main courses, proper Italian pizzas and finger licking desserts...It is always a pleasure dinning here. My personal favorite is the "<span class="body">Veal Ossobuco served with Saffron and Parmesan Risotto</span>". Just yummy!Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834938876286446768.post-25950711970037136062010-07-21T13:03:00.001+01:002010-08-19T16:16:53.609+01:00Town Hall Hotel<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Set within the impressive surrounds of Bethnal Green’s Town Hall, the 98-room Town Hall Hotel has been designed by entrepreneur and hotelier Peng Loh, while the Edwardian building itself has been brought back to life by French architecture team, Rare.<br />
The most interesting element of the new residence however –aside from the fact that star chef Nuno Mendes opened his much lauded eatery<b><i> Viajante</i></b><a href="http://www.viajante.co.uk/" target="_blank"><b><i></i></b></a> here earlier in the summer – is the series of artworks that will populate the corridors and public spaces.<br />

The store's space is a distillation of the brand’s many composite parts, from the Acne-designed furniture to work by artists – including Helmut Lang and Jeremiah Goodman – handpicked by Johansson to line the floors and walls of the store. There's a floor dedicated to denim, one for accessories, one for womenswear and one for men's and there's even a roof terrace to relax on when the shopping gets a bit too much. And the yellow piano on the ground floor will be played every Saturday morning to give a soundtrack to your spending. We couldn't ask for anything more!Christina Mouratoglouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03948682599301215906noreply@blogger.com1
