A cup of tea makes everything better right? I will admit I do love a cup of tea – so much so that when my brother asked what I would like for my birthday one year I asked for a tea caddy for all my special teas (don’t judge me). So it’s always exciting to […]
TRIED & TESTED: Lyons Coffee Bags
How do you like your morning brew? When it comes to coffee, we enjoy it filtered, instant, dripped and pressed but have you ever had it from a bag? Neither had we, until we tried Lyons coffee bags. 55 million cups of coffee are drunk every single day in the UK*. That’s a lot of […]

TRIED & TESTED: Nama Artisan Raw Foods Restaurant
Making raw food taste good is considered an art, after all being unable to heat food immediately means that chefs have to be creative with how they put dishes together.

TRIED & TESTED: For Goodness Shakes Protein Water
For Goodness Shakes Protein Water is a new ready-to-drink, low calorie, high protein soft drink, containing 20g of Whey Protein Isolate per bottle. I don’t know about you, but when anyone talks about protein drinks, a gloopy, milky and usually chocolatey milkshake type drink is what springs to mind. Often thick, loaded with sugar […]
TRIED & TESTED: Bulletproof Coffee
Londoners are gradually developing a more refined coffee palate and antipodean barristas can be found brewing V60s and flat whites at every turn.

Love London Local: Raw Press
MAYFAIR/NOTTING HILL One of my absolute favourite places to go to grab a healthy lunch while I’m at work is Raw Press. I am, without fail, there every week, probably more than once a week too! Why do I go there so much? My work lunch has been my nutritional downfall in the past […]
