[Review] Marks and Spencers Christmas Dinner
As mentioned earlier, the Marks and Spencers Christmas Dinner was on my list to try but the smaller branches don't offer it.
Luckily I was checking something out on Oxford Street so went to Marks and Spencers for the Christmas dinner while everyone in town was probably going for more sophisticated choices.
It was late in the afternoon and relatively busy, overall it was quick to queue and pay but the drinks counter was holding up the queue.
After paying for the dinner, queued for the tea which took a while then sat down and waited for the dinner.
When it arrived, it looked just as good as the product shot with lots of gravy.
Everything on the plate was delicious so I would definitely recommend the Christmas Dinner.

[Review] Marks and Spencers Christmas Rainbow Cake
Spotted the Marks and Spencers Christmas Rainbow Cake and the Christmas dinner at some branch so decided to try it the next time I was out.
Sadly they only serve the cake and Christmas dinner at the bigger branches.
Went to Marks and Spencers at Westfield in White City.
We were greeted by the coffee kiosk on the ground floor so we didn't realize there was a bigger cafe upstairs so ended up just having tea.
Went upstairs after tea and discovered a bigger Marks and Spencers cafe where they had the Christmas Rainbow Cake so ended up going there as well to eat it because it is difficult to find another branch.
The layout at this branch was rather bad because the cake stands were too high which made it difficult to put the slice of cake on the plate.
The Marks and Spencers Christmas Rainbow Cake is basically a cake with layers of green, red and plain cake with buttercream topped with sprinkles.
Overall, it was a fancy cake that was instaworthy with colourings that didn't have any special flavours.
The buttercream a bit too sugary for my liking.
Will return for the Christmas dinner as this branch does not offer it.

[Review] Krispy Kreme Festive donuts
Krispy Kreme used to be an addiction of mine where I used to try all the flavours, however in the recent years, there have been too many donut shops popping up taking donuts to the next level with over the top decorations and toppings etc.
Drawing near Christmas, Krispy Kreme have launched a range of festive donuts which drew me back, basically not overly fancy yet affordable compared to modern donuts these days.
What captivated me were the square parcel shaped donuts with shimmer on them.
The cherry parcel was my fancy.
Once again I was rekindled with the sugar satisfaction from the Krispy Kreme donut that was filled with delicious tart cherry jam.
Although there was no almond, I strangely tasted almond in the icing which was to my liking.

[Review] KFC's Festive Burger
KFC has launched some festive items for Christmas.
Tried the new Festive Burger which is packed with a succulent Original Recipe fillet, a crispy hash brown, a delicious sage and onion stuffing mayo and topped with a tangy cranberry dressing and a layer of cheese.
Overall, the festive burger is worth trying because the cranberry sauce is really good and compliments the chicken.
The only complaint were the fries because there was no festive flavoured seasoning like the product shot but they were just ordinary fries.

[Review] Sainsbury Cafe in Newhaven Harbour
My friends wanted lunch so decided to go to Sainsbury's Cafe instead of McDs or KFC.
I was really excited while I was queuing as they have Christmas roast turkey dinner, hot turkey baguette as well as the usual items.
To my disappointment, none of that was available except for Ham, egg and chips, lasagna, tikka and macaroni cheese which was written on a piece of paper.
Since we were all there, I ordered the mac n cheese which they said would take half an hour so we ended up only having tea.
Overall very disappointed because they only had 4 staff that day.
I don't know when I will even get another chance to go to Sainsbury's Cafe because not every branch has the Christmas dinner and I don't drive!!
