A visit to Wimpy's at Watney Market

 A must visit if you are in the area.

I finally fulfilled my New Years resolution to go to Wimpy's!!
It was a real struggle choosing between the Watney branch or the Greenwich branch.
Greenwich is probably the best option but Watney was more convenient to travel to which is hidden amongst a market.

The vibes at this branch was so different to Greenwich because one of the staff was so keen for me to order or perhaps he has a compulsive disorder.

Luckily I knew what I wanted so ordered the classic hamburger.
It was loaded with Wimpy ketchup which is really different and memorable because the taste is really punchy with a balanced sweet and tangy tone.
The onions were also the star of the show because I love the way they are coarsely chopped and you can really taste and feel the texture which compliments the beef patty.
Overall, the burger was really tasty and the lettuce worked well as I don't normally like lettuce.

It seems that it was a different lettuce used and not iceberg because it looked rather curly.

The decor:

Shatkora kebab, Spicy wings and chips at N1 Grill, Angel

I love spicy wings which are everywhere in London but finding a good is difficult.

The ones at N1 were good because the coating was not too hard or dry while the chicken was springy and moist inside.

I had the 5 wings with chips and 3 out of the 5 wings were good.

The chips could have been better but they were ok and I managed to finish it all.

Will be back for the lamb doner because it looked really good.

Revisited for the Shatkora kebab which I found too sweet for my liking and the kebab meat was a bit gamey.

Interesting eateries at Chatworth Road

Discovered these eateries while I was at Chatsworth market.

Men Noodles or also known as Men Hackney is a Japanese place that makes their own udon, ramen and soba which they hang by the window.

The decor is simplistic white tiles with noodles served in metal bowls.

I don't quite get why the metal bowls because metal is a super conductor which will cool the broth quickly.

The menu looked like skin foundation swatches. 

Jim's Cafe was interesting because of the tiling especially the floor tiling which is a popular tiling used in Hong Kong.

The new look of Central Market

Here we have the new look of the Central Market.
Urban Renewal Authority (URA) and Chinachem Group claim to have captured and preserved many of its historical elements and integrated these into the open plan floor design. They adopted a “boundaryless spatial concept” to provide over 100 leasable units for retail and F&B, 1,000 square metres of green open space, and community spaces for a variety of art exhibitions, performances, and cultural activities, transforming the Central Market into a “Playground for All”.
Phase one has achieve a take-up rate of over 80% , drawing over 70 commercial tenants, with operations ranging from street foods to specialty restaurants, local brands and cultural craft boutiques, and lifestyle grocery stores.
Most phase one shops begin operating today. Additionally, 13 of the original market stall activities of unique historical value have been preserved and will return in new ways to continue their legacies, making Central Market a window into living history.
To summarize, it just feels like another pmq and it is happening everywhere not just in Asia.

Love at First Bite mooncakes from Royal Hotels Hong Kong

 Creativity and fun flavours always come to mind from the Royal Hotels Hong Kong group.

This year, there is 【Love at First Bite】.
I love the modern twist transformation from the classic mixed nut mooncake to a sweet Mini Caramel Pecan Mooncake.

For Hong Kong style toast lovers you have the Mini Peanut Butter & Raspberry Mooncake.

The peanut butter raspberry was my favourite because it had this American Peanut butter jelly resemblance to it.
