The new girly pink Coco & Kiki kebabs at German Doner Kebab GDK UK

The beef doner is always good at GDK but as a curious foodie, it is always hard revisiting as there is always something new to try elsewhere.
I made a revisit to GDK for Coco and Kiki which is basically a The original German doner kebab in a cute pink coconut-infused toasted waffle bread.

The difference between the Coco and Kiki is the size where kiki is the mini one for £3 and Coco is the full size for £6.99.

Overall, the new kebab tastes just as good as the original with a touch of sweetness and a girly twist because of the colour and sweet ingredients.

Tea at Make Mine

Make Mine is a nice corner deli that lets you customize sandwiches, bagels, salads and wraps.

Interestingly they serve Katsu rice as well.

To be honest, I have not tried their food but go in there for a quick drink to chill out.

Overall a great place to have some peace and quiet in the hustle and bustle of Soho.

One time I was there, they had a huge corporate order so I appreciate the way they stop taking orders until they have finished the big order.

Chips at Hobsons in Soho

I am always in the area so pass by Hobsons quite a lot but never tried it.

Saw people outside eating fish and chips which looked promising as the chips were perfectly golden in colour so I went in for some chips.

Unfortunately, my batch of chips were too dark and the texture was too dry for my liking.

The fish menu was rather limited as it didn't have huss or haddock and stuff like that.

Wendy's burger in Camden Town

Wendy's burger chain is popping up all over UK now!

With branches in Croydon, Stratford, Romford and now Camden.

The Camden branch is special in the sense that Wendy gets a new look with a punk hairstyle and other styles.

It occupies the former ex-Royal Bank of Scotland location.

Black forest cake at Heaven's cakes in Romford

A few months ago, I spotted this cake shop on the corner about to open so I waited until it was running smoothly to try it.

On a recent visit, Heaven's cake were finally open and they had a good range of cakes and treats in the cabinet so I stopped by to try the blackforest cake which is made with fresh cream.

Overall, it was really nice and I appreciate that home made factor.

The only downside was that it was a little too sweet to finish it off and I would have liked to see tea on the menu rather than canned drinks.

Address: Liberty shopping centre, Romford RM1 3RT

Doughballs with chimichurri at Pizza Express

Pizza Express has always been my go to place for pizza and when I was in Asia it used to be my comfort food before they localized the food.
As well as the restaurants, you will also find Pizza Express pizzas and other treats at the supermarkets.

I was captivated by the new doughballs with chimichurri which are supposed to make you feel chimi cheery afterwards.

On the menu, there was so much other new stuff and I like the new options with nduja which is trending these days as well as the Chinese duck inspired pizza.

The doughballs with chimichurri were a bit of a disappointment.

As I always do, I tried the doughballs on their own which had been flavoured already by chimichurri which defeats the purpose of having the chimichurri dip.

Sadly, the doughballs itself were too salty to appreciate the chimichurri dip which is meant to be the star of the show.

If I were to try this again, I would request for plain doughballs so that I can appreciate it with the dip.

Apart from the doughballs being too salty, they were soft and pillowly.

New finds on the menu:

Stranger things Netflix Surfer Boy Pizza popup in Shoreditch

Strangers Netflix Surfer Boy Pizza popup  has appeared in Shoreditch

It was a three day event and the queues to get in were long.

Inside, you will find the Surfer Boy Pizza chain which appears in the series.

Every person that goes in get treated a limited-edition Demogorgon pizza.

I was really lucky and made it on a Saturday, queuing took 2 hours.

Guests can also get a makever as well with a 70s look.

The Demorgorgon pizza was surprisingly delicious, I loved the sweet figs and the spicy kick so I was really impressed and a great experience as well as fantastic pizza.
