The Catford Cat

Catford town wouldn't be Catford without a cat.
In 1974, a giant fibreglass cat was installed at the entrance of Catford Centre by Owen Luder from Embassy Signs to purrfect the opening of Catford Shopping Centre.

The cat is still here as of today, March 2020 and hopefully it will be here forever.
LONG LIVE THE CATFORD CAT!

[Review] Dunkin Donuts in London, Baker Street

I don't know why there are so many Krispy Kremes in London, yet there is only one Dunkin Donuts.
As a foodie, how could I not give it a visit.
At the bigger restaurants, Dunkin Donuts has candied bacon while the London one just specializes in donuts.
The London branch of Dunkin Donuts was really nice and the guy at the counter was really friendly.






Tried the chocolate donut hole and it was really amazing, I liked it because it was yeasty and overall it is much better than KK because it is not oily nor can you taste the oil.
Definitely coming back for more donut holes.


[Review] Tortellini Cup / My Tortellini

Discovered Tortellini Cup on groupon but the terms were quite confusing so I didn't bother getting it.
The groupon is valid for a pasta item up to the value of £6.90 but according to their online menu on groupon and their website, all the pastas cost more than £6.90.

The location was also a bit far so it took me a while to get motivated to go.


Finally went on a week day and the menu was literally different to the online menu and groupon.
It allows you to choose a pasta and sauce which makes your choices flexible.






As well as Pasta, they had Tigella (round breads with a choice of fillings), Erbazzone (spinach pie) and desserts!.







It was really hard deciding what to order but pasta had to come first.
Since this place is called Tortellini, I went for the Tortelloni which was filled with spinach and cheese.
Other captivating choices were tortellini (filled with parma ham) and the maccheroni which is unique to Tortellini cup.

For the sauce, I got the tomato sauce.
In a way, I wished they could throw in a few pieces of the maccheroni or just a piece of Tortelloni so that I could try it ad see how they taste.

It was good that the Parmesan was served separately but the the pasta was served in a paper bowl which looks quite different to the cup as show on their website but still good.
As for the taste, the tomato sauce tasted great as there was that home made taste to it and the plump tortelloni was delicious filled with cheese and spinach.


Hopefully I will be back in the area again because I plan to try the Tigella with parma ham as it is more affordable compared to Panino Giusto.
