Gourmet Burger Kitchen


My meal




Excuse the crumbs in each pic, that's from the peanuts we ate. Tables are clean.

Couple weeks ago had nice treat, it was little celebration after bit of good news. For ages I've wanted to visit this place, but something either come up or it's my health same old same old. So finally by surprise my friend took me on sunny day, the weather was great and Clapham is an area I love. Now onto the food, I ordered Camemburger and Sweet Potato Fries with bacon aioli, drink- Ginger & Lemongrass fizz (free refills yay pour me another). The meal itself filled with flavour, nothing burnt/over cooked or under cooked, the burger was juicy succulent and just oozed in my mouth ever so effortlessly. I am burger girl and for me I was in burger heaven. My fries delicious the bacon aioli made me want to know the recipe as I want to try it at home. Drink was fresh refreshing and tasty. Comfortable seating which is great for me, bonus. Service is good and will defiantly be going back. The only thing I will say is wish their banner was brighter and bigger, as can easily go pass it by accident, as I am visual person things like that can make difference, that's my personal view. So if you need me you know feel free to contact me.

ps - changed the blog, fancied a change. Still some tweaks need to be done, but will do it in due time.

Brixton Village Grill









Brixton Village Grill Grill is Portuguese and English cuisine restaurant that serves seasoned flavoursome food. Not having no food all day, appetite was overly big, stomach growls and all. So had to be done three course meal. Starters- Piri piri prawns with rocket salad. Prawns was succulent, oozing with spices that just sat well with my palette. Rocket salad with cheese complimented the dish. Main Meal- Chargrilled spring chicken served with chips and salad. My friend ordered piri piri lamb chops with chips and basamati rice. Generous portions, overwhelmed with how big my dinner was, dawned on me could I eat all this, and yes I did completed it. The chicken was cooked just right, once again well seasoned. Liked the chips and the salad giving it a nice balance. My friend enjoyed his, I had a taste being a foodie that I am have to try, lamb chops wasn't over cooked, juicy. The rice soft fluffy right consistency. Drinks- Had cheeky sangria also tap water as always need water where ever I am. Could of easily drank more sangria but I was being good girl, needless to say was a fan, wasn't bitter or sour how some can be or overpowered with alcohol, had the right amount of sweetness. Dessert- Dime bar cheesecake. If you have sweet tooth like me, this is for you. Nice little treat, naughty dish, worth the guilt. Overall- The waiters are attentive, good service, no complaints.

The restaurant is situated in Brixton Village.

Ps- This was before I was hospitalised, wanted to blog about it some time ago however due to misfortunes this was delayed.

Honest Burgers (Brixton)


Me and my usual moody face lol.



Happy now- feed me.

After seeing reviews and hearing the buzz about this place, me being a lover of burgers had to check out what all the fuss was about. When we got there it was 20 minute wait, so killed time walked around Brixton market and Brixton Village seeing all the new places to eat as it's changed quite fair amount since last time been in the area. Once table was available we received a text message to say table is ready for us, which I thought was good, so know what's happening, officiant. So now it's time for drinks and FOOD. 

Ordered  beef, red onion and lettuce with leicester cheese burger with their house chips (chips comes with the meal). Must I say chips has nice little crunch to it, taste reminds me of crisps like the seasoning of it, so didn't need my usual overload of ketchup to dip my chips in. Now onto the burger as sit here typing this I am now wanting this meal, thoroughly enjoyed the burger, cooked just right, melts in your mouth. Overall the service was good, nice meal out however at the end that killed the evening we got the bill before we even requested it, which threw us off, kind of ruined it, if they just waited only few minutes later we was going to ask for the bill anyway, that wasn't cool. 

Pre warn you as it does get so busy there (in evenings) expect a waiting time, be fully prepared to wait at their peak times. 

However I'm glad I went.

Safa Indian Restaurant

Couple a weeks ago celebrated my sister's birthday, as you may of gathered I love food. Luckily this was before my flare ups and my night in A&E, however back to the dining post. The family and I decided to go to Indian Restaurant to celebrate her birthday, which was fab. I am not one for spicy spicy food, the taste, and also doesn't exactly agree with me if you get my drift. I was delighted with my Korma (I know how very British of me), rice, Bombay potatoes, and my favourite peshwari naan. The food was tasteful, wasn't greasy, they was attentive to your needs. My one gripe is the portions are on the small side, wish they was bigger, I notice when eating out it's either to little or to big of a portion (not always of course).


Drinks, also can see part of my Dad looking at the menu.

My cocktail Cosmopolitan 

Chicken Korma, peshwari naan, rice, and Bombay potatoes.

Other dishes my family ordered.

Place an order.

Dodgy angle I know, however it was hard to capture it all without
standing in the road, also was rushing - time to go home.
However I very much recommend this restaurant, so if you ever in South East London, check it out. I sure will be repeat customer.
