The Ivy has seen quite an expansion in recent years. From one restaurant in Covent Garden they now have 8 other Grills and Brasseries dotted around London and the UK. They are also opening a new one in Soho next month along with many others planned for the …
One of my favourite things to do when I travel is to check out the local food markets. I love just wandering around, seeing what the locals eat and buy, trying a few things, maybe buying some lunch for a picnic and just generally enjoying …
