“Rekindled forgotten food classics staged in a Launderette, where else?”
The English Launderette opens this Saturday 1st October, for 9 nights of dining (from 6pm). The 6 course Taster Menu will include foods inspired by fond childhood memories (I’m an 80s baby, but we still had Cheese & Pineapple), and will represent the Best of British from the swinging 60′s…
Glass of juice
Cheese and pineapple
Prawn and avocado
The mixed grill
The savoury
Lily Vanilli’s dessert trolley of delight
The night will also feature a ’60s inspired soundtrack, plus the Coin-Op Bar with Vodka & Gin Cocktails.
We’re coming to dine next week, and we’ll make sure to get lots of photos.
Book your place here.

A typical last Monday goes like this I guess, wake up next to my sweet sweet Girlfriend, go to the CTRL headquarters, get a hot Americano, first checking out some internet bullshit to get hyped off the real world again and start multitasking on various CTRL projects, then happily off from work and go swimming with my sweet sweet girlfriend, cook a fancy oriental dinner and some internet stolen art film with the video projector, then sleep with my sweet sweet GF.
Another day would be another story.

THINGS WE’VE EATEN
January 11th, 2011 by LaraThis blog, an off-shoot of Adam Tickle’s ‘Things I’ve Seen‘, does exactly what it says on the packet. Each post features an image and (often witty) response to a meal eaten by one of it’s 7 contributors. The idea is basic, and makes perfect sense. Each contributor photographs his meal, consumes it and proceeds to comment on it via the blog. Some meals are slated and others applauded, but mainly it’s a tongue in cheek (and admittedly niche) platform that turns a mundane ritual into an entertaining one. view it HERE
Living With Mother
October 24th, 2010 by LaraGenerally speaking, it can be hard to find an on-point and original Tumblr that doesn’t just repeatedly re-blog other tumblrs. Which is why this rare jewel of a photo-blog stood out to me. The title pretty much explains it all. In his own words the master mind behind ‘Living With Mother’ posts “pictures of the food i am lovingly served by my mother, and generally discussing the effect both her cooking and her company are having on me”. From the bargain bucket to the classic dinner waffle, this lad endures a slew of unappetizing “meals” that, on a Sunday evening when there is nothing to do but await the X-Factor results show, provides quite a giggle and accompanying “grosss!”. If you’re not too squeamish, take a look here.
