Venice in Little Plates – Polpo, London
My last memory of Venice was an interesting one. A city constantly bombarded with the constant influx of tourists, so much that it became almost impossible to have an enjoyable dining experience unless you have local friends to take you around.

Foraging in the Rabbit Hole
The restaurant world is a small…small place indeed. I first heard about Rabbit from a guest who attended a WhatWeAte meal with me, as I later found out that she was an apprentice chef at this new establishment in one of the most affluent areas of London. Since then, she has moved on to pursue an international
