Pinkberry

The Westfield Mall in Stratford is actually pretty nice. I don't really like shopping malls when I'm in a beautiful city but I found my self there one day buying a frozen yogurt at Pinkberry! Guess it's always nice to have everything you need in the same space...


I ordered the salt caramel but without salt. It was just too much for my taste, and I know that I like salt caramel, it was really fun choosing the toppings and the white chocolate shavings were my favorite, alongside with the raspberries, of course. I guess my sister and dad enjoyed their choices, because their cups looked delicious. However, I have to admit, I'm not a fro-yo girl. I do have a sweet tooth, but this just doesn't cut for me. Give me an ice cream any day over Pinkberry. But I must admit that all of the frozen yogurt I've ever tasted, this was actually the best one. 

Sick day 2

On my second sick day I wanted something hearty and nice. Like fish. I usually crave homey food and french fries whenever I'm sick. So we went to Simply Fish. In Shoreditch's Box Park. I feel sad for not being with a fresh head to go to Shoreditch's AMAZING places to eat, I didn't even take a look at my long list of cool restaurants to go. I just got in this one without researching, which for me is really bad, because I like to know where I eat. But the flu clouded all my judgement, I didn't care...


I ordered this pan fried seabass with salsa verde, white rice and chips. I wanted to keep it simple on the sauce so I didn't take much of a risk. The fish was really good, and the sauce paired well with it. As for the rice, it was really bland, I didn't like it at all, it was also very mushy. The fries were just normal fries, maybe frozen, by the look of it, but I can't really remember the taste now.

Here's what my sister and my dad ordered. I guess my dad wasn't too happy with his choice either, and I tried some of his lentils and it seemed to me that they also lacked seasoning. Sad.

Sick day 1

On my first sick day I couldn't eat breakfast and told myself I would want something healthy and good. I wanted to go to Itsu so much I tried to convince myself that I was hungry. I ordered two things! Guess I was delusional or something, maybe it was the fever...


I did take a picture of my sushi box and vegetable warm box. I'm sad to say that I couldn't finish the dishes. I can't even describe the flavors because I wasn't myself. I know that the sushi was good and the vegetables were nice, but in my mind I only wanted to go to bed. Having said this, I really want to go back as a healthy person! I feel like I didn't enjoy it as I should. We'll see if I'll go back soon!...
