Childhood classics at Anya Hindmarch Cafe

Discovered the Anya Hindmarch Cafe when the Ice Cream project was launched.
I have been meaning to dine there because they have all the classic English biscuits and treats like bourbon, digestives, party rings, before dinner mint thins and even Wagon wheels.
The cart wheel aka Wagon wheel is probably the most sophisticated one because it has marshmallow, jam, biscuit components so tried that.
It was literally the best wagon wheel ever because the chocolate was so good and the marshmallow had a lovely chew to it.
The biscuit texture was crumbly and wheaty while the jam had a good kick.
I know you can probably get three packs for one of these but these are seriously amazing.
The only gripe was that they ran out of the cookie/biscuit served with coffee which has a King Charles postage stamp on it that is edible.
On the first day of the Ice Cream project, I wanted to try all flavours which was the new ice cream set where you try all flavours, however they were not ready for it yet so I had to get the ice creams directly from the shop which I don't mind but again they are not equipped for ice cream enthusiasts/foodies who want to buy all flavours as they don't even have trays or bags to facilitate this.

Visiting Cody Dock and eating at the cafe Milagro by the entrance

Cody Dock, a nice place in East London to get away for a few hours.
Located a few minutes walk from Star Lane DLR.
At the entrance was this lovely cafe serving some unique drinks and they even had Moroccan tagine with couscous.
The coconut, turmeric and ginger infusion was nice while the tangine was a bit too acidic but was something I needed that day.


















HEINZ secret sauce at GDK

HEINZ secret sauce exclusive at GDK developed by Yung Filly and Harry Pinero in partnership with Heinz.
The HEINZ secret sauce is only available with the burger so I tried that but you can also buy tubs of it at 69p which I did.
Tasting the secret sauce alone, it was like prawn cocktail Marie Rose sauce without that creaminess followed by a fiery cajun kick.
Having it with the doner burger was also quite nice.
I expect it on the supermarket shelves next year like the Heinz Morley's sauce.










Also tried it again but with a different sauce.
I got the mild curry ketchup which had the typical German taste.
The meat at this branch is awlful, you can see it is darker and dry.






New gravy at Dallas Chicken

Only tried Dallas chicken because of the new gravy.
A small tub for 99p but it was too salty and lumpy and their chips were too crunchy and oily.




New Sicilian chicken meatballs/caesar chicken burger/chicken nuggets in Katsu at Leon Restaurants

Another trip to Leon is needed because they have a new Caesar chicken burger, chicken meatballs and chicken nuggets in Katsu sauce.
I tried the Sicilian chicken meatballs which were tasty as expected because chicken is so much nicer than pork or beef.
It had capers which gives it that moreish component and the pesto was tasty as well.
Next was the Seriously delicious Leon Caesar burger 6.99.
A bit expensive but it delivered especially the provolone cheese where it looks like I got two slices.
The pickles were delicious.
Would love to see the same burger with pesto sauce instead of honey mustard.
Chicken nuggets in Katsu sauce with rice:
As I have never tried the chicken nuggets before at Leon, I tried the new Katsu rice box which come with chicken nuggets.
It was ok but the nuggets were a bit dry or they made have been made a while before I ordered them.
