Moving Mountains Plant Based Quarter Pounder

As a foodie with no specific diet, I love trying plant food as well as meat to see how they fare.

Moving Mountains were giving away free burgers so I had to get my hands on one as I have not encountered this brand before.

The queue was fast moving so I only had to wait 20 minutes and I got my burger before it rained heavily.

I liked the way you can add sauces yourself which let me taste how the burger is without any sauces.

It was a quarter pounder so I liked the thickness which makes it satisfying for a burger.

The texture was good as it was soft and not over cooked without any soy/beany aftertaste.

I felt that it was similar to the beyond burger but the texture and taste was better.

As well as the quarter pounder they also do sausage burgers and fish fingers which are served in IKEA Hong Kong they said.

In the UK, you can get them at most Supermarkets like sainsburys.

I was really lucky to get a sample which I cooked the very next day and just to how how big the patty is, I placed it in a standard size burger bun with purple cabbage and Hellmanns gravy mayonnaise.

Asian Bistro and Chai Goodwhich debuts at Covent gardens

While I was at New Row, I spotted this interesting bistro that serves Indian food with an Asian twist as well as bubble Masala Chai and bubble mango lassi.

On the menu, I liked use of Bao filled with Indian options like Chicken Korma, butter chicken 
as well as the conventional Katsu.

Then on the main menu, you have various curry choices serve with rice or salad.

Zaatar and Gruyere cheese croissant from Chestnut bakery

I have always wanted to try a zaatar croissant as a lover of zaatar which led me to Chestnut bakery because they have them.

As well as Chestnut bakery, Bread ahead also have them but only at their Jeddah branch so Chestnut bakery was the solution.

Another way would be buying a good quality croissant and sprinkling zaatar on top.

The one at Chestnut bakery has gruyere cheese filling.

Sadly, the croissant was disappointing because the texture was stale even though it was heated at the cafe.

In terms of taste the cheese didn't quite come through.

Cherry bomb and Jacob dough-lordy doughnut from doughnut time

Doughnut time has all these wonderful OTT doughnuts that stop you when you go past but somehow I didn't really get the impulse to get one because of the flavours

I almost got the Jubilee ones because of the rhubarb cream glaze but somehow I missed out but didn't spot anything that captivated me lately until the cherry bomb.

The cherry bomb was unique because the doughnut was marble with red velvet layers and filled with cherry jam.

It wasn't a bad doughnut but I felt that the doughnut itself let it down as the texture was more like a soft bun that was not yeasty or bready.

Otherwise the jam filling was good and the red white layers were amazing.

Overall, I felt that it was overpriced.

Although it was not my cup of tea, I went back for the plain doughnut ring which was much more pleasing.

A bit pricey for 3.50 considering you can get other nice plain ones for less.

Also had the Jacob dough lordy which cost 4.50.

Again, you that same bready texture but the good thing was the doughnut base is not sweet so it goes well with the cream cheese frosting.

Tasty Haggis Bridie at The Scottish Kitchen

Spotted this Scottish Kitchen stall when I was at the train station which had so much to offer from Empire biscuits, Lorne sausage rolls to Haggis Rolls.

I don't often come accross a Bridie so I went for the Haggis Bridie which turned out really delicoius filled with haggis.

It was basically like eating a pastie filled with haggis.

They also have the Eccelefechan Tart which is a mixture of sugar, dried fruit, and butter inside of a sweet shortcrust pastry tart.
