Jul 19 2020
The pandemic has brought lots of struggles to many, but some entrepreneurs have managed to turn things around by being inventive and innovative. James and Rebecca recently had to close Nonna Tonda, their pasta restaurant in London, so thought they could deliver their fresh pasta pasta to people instead.
Each week they now deliver hand rolled fresh pasta and delicious homemade sauces to people’s doors. Recipes that are ready to cook and eat in under 5 minutes. A dream come true especially if you love Italian food and don’t have the time to make fresh pasta.
Picture Book of the month: The Tower Bridge Cat & The Baby Whale
Jul 18 2020
I’m in love with anything that features my adoptive city, London. I have often covered my favourite books about London and I am now excited about the launch of a new children’s book set at Tower Bridge: The Tower Bridge Cat & The Baby Whale. This ‘tail’ is perfect for primary school children, or pre-school children as a bedtime story – with wonderful illustrations that follow Bella on her adventures at the iconic landmark. It follows the award-winning prequel, The Tower Bridge Cat. I cannot wait to go back to Tower Bridge very soon! The London view from there is absolutely incredible.

Tikka Masala family feast – Home-cooked Indian food made easy
Jul 16 2020
During lockdown we have all missed going out, including meals at our favourite restaurants. I love cooking but I have always found Italian cuisine easier than other cookery. I love Indian food but I never thought I could make a good curry. So when I heard of a new service offered by SpiceBox I wanted to give it a go and make my own Tikka Masala. North East London’s favourite neighbourhood curry house SpiceBox has in fact started sharing recently their spicy flavours by launching family curry night recipe boxes with a nationwide delivery service. You still have to cook but the instructions are really detailed. This service has given me the confidence that I can indeed make my own Tikka Masala dish.
Italian Gelato deliveries in London
Jul 15 2020
When the summer is here, as an Italian, the things I miss the most in London are the sunshine and Italian Gelato! Finally, I can get one of the two on tap. Badiani, one of the most famous artisan gelato producers in the world, born in 1932 in Florence, has now opened four stores across London along with a dedicated laboratory. To celebrate my birthday in style recently, I ordered Badiani’s ice cream through the site Cosa Porto. It came swiftly and was absolutely amazing. The most authentic Italian Gelato in London.
