Balans Soho Society began as a sandwich shop on Old Compton Street in 1987 in which David Taylor, owner-manager celebrated Balans 30 year anniversary last year.

More often than not, readers, friends and family often have one question: Where should I eat in London right now? I thought I would start a new monthly round up of some of the places I have enjoyed eating at during the month, hopefully giving you guys some recommendations if you’re ever stuck for places to go. All my reviews are honest however I know that everybody has different tastes so may not suit everyone.

Now roof top season is finally going to be here, hopefully. Pergola on the roof in Paddington has returned for summer. It will be open for lunch and dinner through to Wednesday to Sunday from now to October. It’s set over two beautifully decorated floors with two large open bars and seating for 850 people. It’s perfect for all occasions, me and my sister headed here on a Friday night to enjoy a couple of cocktails and some food.

Walthamstow, otherwise known as awesomestow is known for a number of great attractions. After living in Walthamstow for a year now, I feel I’ve really got to know the area and what it has to offer. Located in East London, it’s the final stop on the Victoria line( which means you always get a seat on the tube). I thought I would share with you my guide to Walthamstow, sharing my favourite places to eat and drink, places to shop and things to do.

Paris was just beautiful, just how I imagined it to be. We took the eurostar to Paris which was super easy and affordable, get searching ladies! This was my first time to Paris, so I thought I’d share a little insight into my trip in photos. We stayed in the Montmartre area, just a few minutes down the road from the Moulin Rouge which I was lucky enough to go and see and was surprised when Jonny had got us both tickets.
