Eat Me. Hakkasan, Mayfair

As you can already see on Instagram my summer travels have begun! I am currently swanning my way through Italy enjoying the sunshine and a few too many bowls of pasta. But rewind a week or so and I had a lovely, yet heart-wrenching, farewell dinner with a few of my besties in London as I won't be seeing them for a little while. Our venue of choice? Hakkasan in Mayfair.

One Day. Onboard The Silversea

In my 26 years of existence on this planet I've never found myself on a cruise ship. To be honest I'd always thought of them as holidays designed for people other than myself... You know as that saying goes - cruises are for overfeds, newly-weds and nearly deads.

Well I think we can now say I've been well and truly converted after a delightful little day on the majestic Silver Wind, one of Silversea's luxury ships.

One Day. The Magic of Elm Row

Even after two years in this incredible city, you'll often find me spending my days wandering around various neighborhoods. It's in my nature to explore. And wherever I am, from South Kensington to Richmond, I always manage to find such beautiful streets with charming homes and character-filled gardens.

One Day. The Secret Garden

"If you look the right way you can see that the whole world is a garden."

Throughout my childhood I held a fascination for The Secret Garden; it was a movie I watched again and again. There was something about the grand English estate, the walled garden and its hidden treasures that captured my imagination.

This recipe is for those who love the combination. Fruit meet vegetable. Because like they say, opposites attract. This salad is fresh and zingy, bursting with flavour AND healthy.
