Third week in London and all the moving around between different states of limbo made me forget about blogging. Take Taste Festival for example I went two weekends ago and barely had time to sit down and cull the photos let alone write about it properly. Strangely enough the weather remained sunny two weeks ago… Continue reading A taste of London

Contemplating my stomach – Fratelli Fresh
Almost ten weeks of waiting, the good news is I know of more fantastic places to eat than I have ever before. The not so brilliant news is this state of limbo is not coming to an end anytime soon. Speaking of the former and not the latter, a good friend of mine brought my… Continue reading Contemplating my stomach – Fratelli Fresh
Nippon Club
I had a rather brilliant weekend with the MCA zine fair on Sunday and catching up with a good friend on Saturday. The zine fair was a lot of fun and I picked up a number of zines and walked away feeling rather inspired. I’ll blog about in a while once I finish downloading some… Continue reading Nippon Club
Whisk and Laddle and the mysterious phenomenom known as Supperclub

When A suggested a visit to Borough Market I happily ran out the door without a second glance at my work laptop. I didn’t realise how large Borough Market was. Just a few… Continue reading Foodie weekend – Borough Market

We were fed to the bursting point, but it’s difficult to say no to home grownshitake mushroom of a size that you wouldn’t believe. The photo is actually my hand holding three… Continue reading On being fed

What I wasn’t expecting was the sheer volume and quality of the food in Hokkaido, especially in the region we were working at. The ocean is so close, that… Continue reading Seafood in Hokkaido
Rocky Road cupcakes
Rocky Road cupcake Originally uploaded by mirvettium Latest photoshoot after another haphazard collaboration with Restaurant Girl where she made gorgeous looking food, styles it and exits the kitchen while I took some shots. Despite it being relatively unplanned, I ended up taking a lot more time thinking about lighting. I had my flash reflected to… Continue reading Rocky Road cupcakes
Makan@Alice
There’s nothing like uploading photos of food when facing a crap day, and what looks like a crap week and month to boot. Makan@Alice Originally uploaded by mirvettium Makan@Alice is a little bit of an institution to those who live in the North and love their Malaysian food. I first heard of it from Y… Continue reading Makan@Alice
