Restaurant Review: Blacks Burgers 04/25/2017 Blacks Burgers Word travels fast. In today’s world it’s usually bad words that travel the fastest but in this case, I had been hearing some brilliant things about Blacks Burgers. So, I was in Epsom, Surrey for another thing and thought why not try out this burger joint. So me and my other half went straight there for lunch and as soon as we stepped in we were greeted by a cheery Irish waitress who sat us at a lovely table and told us about the specials board. Usually you are supposed to go up

Bar Snacks for Krombacher Beer 04/22/2017 I was very lucky to be offered the opportunity to create a recipe to perfectly compliment Krombacher beer. Well, of course, I jumped at the chance. If you've never had Krombacher, then let me introduce you to it. It follows the Reinheitsgebot, which is a German purity law that is going to mark it's 501 year anniversary (it's the oldest food and drink law ever, don't you know) on April the 23rd!! Krombacher follows the Reinheitsgebot law stating that a beer can only have four ingredients, Malted

Beauty Review: Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse 04/18/2017 So here we are again, testing a natural product on my hair to see if any can benefit us more than expensive chemical products. Today we are trying apple cider vinegar. Why you ask? Well lets look at what its meant to do. Prevents hair loss, how? No idea how and nobody could give me any science to back it up. It also promotes hair growth too, through stimulating the scalp and treating clogged hair follicles, stimulating better blood circulation to the hair follicles. Furthermore, this blood

Book Review: Drawing Recipes 04/05/2017 Drawing Recipes By Chiara Di Francia I had the pleasure of being sent this cook book by the author herself. I was excited, as I believe cooking is an art form, so her concept of drawing all her recipes was delightful. When the book arrived, the cover really made me smile and I was excited to get stuck in. Chiara begins with ‘Breakfasts and Brunch’. As some of you know breakfast is one of my favourite meals, so I eagerly lapped up her drawings. They are adorable but… then I started actually

Let me explain the Herbivorous diet in more detail. Gorillas are herbivores, basically plant eaters. So this diet will be Vegan or if that word seems scary to you,

Results After 30 Days As A Piscivorian 04/03/2017 Piscivorian Results So It’s been 30 days that I’ve been on the Piscivorian Diet, eating like a Piranha. For those who think I’ve lost my marbles, let me explain. I’m doing a year long experiment to find the right diet for me. And I’m doing this by mimicking the diets of certain wild animals, because animals eat exactly what they need to be at an optimise health level. I want to be at my optimum health and I think a good diet will help that. But which animals diet will suit me? That can only
