Subway Limited Edition Cherry Bakewell cookie

I love cherry bakewell so I had to try this.
Strangely, there are pieces of milk chocolate in it as well as almond and cherry pieces.
The taste of the glacier cherries were sweet and prominent but the almond taste was rather light even though there were pieces of almond in it.
Overall, it is nice to see something different.

Comforting cakes with custard and bacon egg roll at Doorstep bakery

I have always wanted to visit Doorstep Bakery but it is off the radar and they close at 3pm.
Visited this place twice and both occasions it was really memorable.

The first time, I went on a train strike day and got some delicious cakes but I didn't realize it was cash as I was 20p short so I ended up getting the sprinkles and chocolate cake or I would have got more cakes.

Although, someone did offer to pay the 20p I managed to find some loose change YAY!

The sprinkles cake was soft and delicious without being too sweet.

The second visit, I made sure I had enough cash, the bakery was quite busy and this guy had just finished ordering, somehow he asked me what I came in for and I said cakes and then he showed me his which had custard so I had to get it because I didn't know you could get custard on the first visit.

It was hard deciding between the chocolate and the sprinkles but in the end I decided to get the chocolate because I got a photo of his sprinkles cake with custard.

It was a lovely surprise, the guy paid for my cake.

Revisited again for a simple comforting egg bacon roll that is freshly made to order in front of you.

It was just egg,  bacon and butter without any sauces but it was so delicious because you can smell and taste that delicious fragrant egg while you get the saltiness from the bacon. 

Also had a avocado prawn egg as well as a liver sausage and onion roll.

Matcha slice cake from Biockas

Visited Biockas on a train strike day because only the over ground was running and got some delicious cakes.
On the way to the Overground, I visited Brockas and got a matcha cake even though I don't like matcha.
The icing was decent with a strong matcha grassiness but the cake itself was too dense and gritty but then it was vegan.

New greasy spoon style Indian cafe in West Croydon

Went to West Croydon one weekend nd spotted this new cafe that really pops out literally outside West Croydon station by the bus terminus. 

Bright orange, open early till 10pm serving English breakfast,  baguettes to Indian fare!!

I had to go in and give it a try so I had the full English.

Their menu is not quite ready yet as the items on the board do not prices but it is good that they display samples of their dishes.

My breakfast was the usual but presented quite different.

Sausages were sliced in half.

Bacon was turkey bacon.

Tea tasted like Indian tea.

Overall it was nice and an interesting experience.

Baileys deliciously light pop up

Baileys Deliciously Light is 40% less calories and sugar.

There was a pop up event from Wednesday 23 – Thursday 24 August near South Bank giving away samples of the drink as well as treats when you press the Baileys button.

As I was in the area, I tried a sample of Baileys deliciously light and to be honest you can't tell the difference in taste with the regular so it was just as nice.

When you press the button, you get a surprise and I got a delicious cup cake which was made by Netflix’s Extreme Cake Makers @mollymakescakes

The cupcake was really nice and not too sweet with a soft and moist texture garnished with shimmering gold and a lovely cream topping.

If you were lucky, some of the cakes that came out where really fancy ones like a huge chocolate cake bar or a Baileys bottle shaped cake.
