It just hit me that I have not blog about my favourite teahouse. Most of my friends in UK were busy last weekend, catching the train to Nottingham for the Nottingham Malaysian Games. Looking at all those photos where high school or college friends reunite, it really makes me miss those friends and the nice place there.

Nottingham's friendliest place for tea, cakes and a tasty snack

If I ever have another chance to visit Notts, White Rabbit TeaHouse is a must-go, on the very top of my list.

This is how old this post supposed to be. When I still have bangs.

Loving every detail in that small shop. From the setting, the teapots, the cutlery, the food and even the washroom lol. Yes i mean it when I say you must visit their washroom haha

A slice of lemon cake

Toasted Ham & Cheese

My absolute favorite : Scones with cornish clotted cream & jam

In short, The White Rabbit Teahouse is a fashionable yet cosy place to enjoy home-made sweet and savoury snacks throughout the day. In particular they specialise in afternoon tea, deliciously hand decorated cake and home-made scones, served in traditional china.

Do pay a visit there when u visit to Notts!

Bon appetite ★

Borough Market - the largest and oldest food market in London. How to get there?

We went there by underground tube services, stopped at London Bridge station and cross Borough High Street after you exit the station.

My sister insisted on bringing us here for ostrich burger but unfortunately it was closed on that day. #saddieme coz it's food we're talking about, ostrich burger isn't a common food and I wanna try it.

Something else which attracts the crowd to Borough market would be Monmouth coffee, regularly touted as the best coffee shop in London. Not being a coffee connoisseur, I actually don't really know how to judge what you called the best coffee. I chose a cup of flat white takeaway and it taste good, worth another visit.

Fish & Chips - a typical British food. Shared one haddock and it cost us around 8 GBP, which is considered pricey as I can get it much cheaper back in Notts.

Since ostrich is now out of the picture, we decided to go into water, fishing for some oysters. Selection of Rocks and complimentary bread at Wright Brothers Oyster & Porter House

While we were about to leave the market, we couldn't help but to stop as we smell something nice and we see people surrounding this stall. I don't think this is a permanent stall so you might not get the same thing when you visit Borough market but don't worry you might be lucky if the ostrich burger is open!

Top : Le Mac Diot - pork sausages from Savoie cooked with wine and onions

Bottom : Tartiflette - famous Savoie dish made with potatoes, onions, white wine, bacon and reblochon cheese (tried this one only, it's carbs but yummy esp. on a windy morning)

That's what I had during a morning at Borough Market.

A place to revisit when I'm in London? Yes pls. Ostrich burger craving not satisfied yet.

Till then, have a great Monday!

Finally back to blogging. As promised, no blogging till exams end but there's still time where I was so tempted to write something here.
Three weeks of nightmare is finally over, now three weeks of break! This week's schedule is totally full. Occupied with movie dates, dinner outings, body massage, facial appointment, Genting trip and CNY shopping!
One more Ipoh food hunt with friends, so I'll just wait till then to do an overall summary of Ipoh delicacies :)

I think I'll do abit on London before I start Spain.
Reminiscence back to June 2012...

Highly recommended breakfast in London, The Breakfast Club
Really like the poached egg done by them.

Small but cosy shop

Eggs Royale

Huevos Rancheros

Fried eggs, Tortilla, refried beans, chorizo, salsa, sour cream, cheddar and guacamole

Not used to bangs at that time. Look so chubby

The half cut-out glass of drink is The Big Breakfast.

Strawberry, banana, oats, honey, yogurt and milk *slurp*

You might have to wait for long coz queues are often seen outside the shop.

This outlet is located in Soho.

Just round the corner and you can spot one of the best bakery, The Hummingbird Bakery

I'm not a cupcake person, but they serve the best red velvet cupcakes.My one and only cupcake.

All the details so pretty!

My favourite colours and theme pastel

Afterall I'm just a small kid inside. M&M's WORLD has to be visited.

Fun place to play around!

Cute dance from the mascots

It was Queen's Diamond Jubilee at that time. Wrong timing to go London coz lots of streets are blocked. There was so many people on the street waiting to catch a glimpse of the Queen.
