Breakfast At Nandos

-
Nando's??? For breakfast??? That's right. Gatwick Airport has the only Nando's in the country that serves breakfast, and seeing as I was there last month I couldn't pass up the opportunity- I mean, how often are you in Gatwick Airport? I thought I would share my experience with you, because currently there is nothing interesting happening in my life.


The breakfast menu was less chicken orientated than I expected- although I don't know what I was expecting, how are you supposed to incorporate chicken into breakfast food? Nevertheless, I tried the breakfast mango and lime chicken sausage roll. I'd just like to clarify that I don't normally have mango and lime (come on, I'm Indian), but extra hot chicken at 10 in the morning didn't seem very appealing. 



They also had normal breakfast food like pancakes (with loooads of honey) and french toast. Nothing too special about them- just standard pancakes really.



They also had 'Corny Browns' which are like hash browns but are made of sweet corn and have red onion and stuff in them- they were so good! Need to find a recipe at some point as they are a much healthier (and tastier) alternative to hash browns. They came with chilli jam which I've never tried before and was surprisingly nice.



So there you have a brief break down of my experience having a Nando's breakfast, which was a good one, but I wouldn't have it all the time (not that I could, I hardly live walking distance from Gatwick). Anyway, I hope this has been something different to read other than your personal statements.

Happy Saturday :)

A Guide To Kolkata Street Food

Indian street food- delicious, quick and incredibly cheap. Need any more convincing? One of the things I most look forward to when we visit Kolkata (after seeing family of course) is the street food. There's nothing like it. Different parts of India have specialties, and here is your guide to street food in Kolkata, in the East of India. You've probably heard about food poisoning from street food (and true, I did get food poisoning this time), but in general if you follow take these precautions you should be safe. Don't ever drink water unless you've seen it's been filtered or is sealed bottled water. If you've seen Slumdog Millionaire you'll see that sometimes they put tap water into bottles and pass it off as mineral water! This applies to food as well- if there is ANY water in your street food, do not eat it If the food is on a plate that has just been washed, make sure to wipe any excess water off it so it doesn't contaminate the food Only...

Travels to Vienna

So my travelling for this summer consisted of a week trip to Vienna. Whilst there, we couldn't not take advantage of the short journeys to Budapest and Bratislava, so we managed to cover 3 places (although Budapest was slightly rushed in a day). Each one was different in their own wonderful way, so I'll do separate posts for each. SO, I shall start with Vienna!  WARNING - excessive panorama shots    The first thing we did when stepping out of the airport at Vienna was to buy our underground tickets. At the machines, the ticket options were for a person, or a person with a dog. A city with an appreciation for dogs? I was going to like it here. With my last two holidays being India and Canada, I forgot that there are people that don't speak my language abroad. So it took a while to get used to the German, as well as a trip down memory lane to my year 8 German lessons.  Our hotel was 5 mins from Prater, a massive fairground/water park which was so lively at n...

The one with Friends Fest

Remember in secondary school when teachers made you say a 'fun fact' about yourself as an ice-breaker? Well, mine was always that I could quote any F.R.I.E.N.D.S episode. So when I managed to get Friends Fest tickets this year you can imagine how hyped I was!  It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say I've been waiting for this day for years. We went to the Friends Fest in Kenington Park, London but there are locations all over the UK. The doors opened at 12 and we had a set tour at  pretty much as soon as we arrived. The set tour was probably my favourite part of the whole thing! It was 30 minutes long, with 10 minutes in each of Joey and Chandler's, Ross' and Rachel and Monica's apartments which felt surreal. I was amazed at how much detail they had put into the sets - they even filled up Joey's fridge with take away boxes. I loved seeing all the original props (including Phoebe's guitar and my personal favourite Pat the Dog). T...
