REVIEW: TWISTED LONDON VEGAN JUNK FOOD GOODNESS

Image
A couple of weeks ago I was kindly invited to try out Twisted London’s new vegan menu. I had never even heard of Twisted London before, so I was very intrigued to see what it was all about.  A quick google told me that Twisted London are a fast food place, specialising in chicken burgers. I mean, it doesn’t sound very vegan friendly, until I scrolled down and found the vegan menu and OH BOY I had hit the jackpot.  Twisted currently have four vegan items on their menu, delivering to both London and Leeds (just check if it's available in your area). I was extremely excited to test it out, as upon investigation it looked amazing.   Twisted are currently delivering only from Absurd Bird in Trinity Kitchen but as they invited me to try out their menu, I was able to head down to the restaurant with my friend to test it out.  We arrived at around 5pm and were greeted by the lovely guys from Absurd. We were handed a laptop and told we could order w...

EATING VEGAN IN... PRAGUE

Image
Back in December, I was turning 21 and I had no idea how I wanted to celebrate. I was sat in my university house when I got a text from my mum saying she had booked for me and my family to go to Prague for three days over Christmas to celebrate my birthday. I was THRILLED, (thanks mum and dad).  We were due to fly on boxing day at 4pm, so the evening of Christmas day was spent packing for the next three days in Prague. It was lovely to have something to look forward to after Christmas in order to rid of those Boxing Day blues.  Day One: Flying, Cheap Beer and Late Dinners Time soon flew by and before we knew it, we were off to Birmingham Airport to catch our flight. We landed in Prague at around 8pm and the first thing we did was head straight to the pub. We had a couple of beers (which worked out to be less than a pound each!!!) and waiting for the host of our apartment to arrive.    We were staying right in the centre next to Old Town Square, so ...

2018: A YEAR IN REVIEW

Image
A year ago, I was sat in the same spot writing my 2017 year in review in a stable relationship with great friends and extremely good mental health. A year on, I have none of those things, (except my friends are still great, I love you all). I guess this is why it has taken me almost two weeks to write this post, purely because I am nervous to look back on what was one of the worst years of my life. A month ago, I would not have even considered writing this, but, I am pleased to say that 2018 did have a happy ending. I am now in one of the best places mentally that I have been in a long time, and I can only thank my best friends for that. I would not even be alive writing this if it wasn’t for them. So, here goes.  JANUARY I entered the new year with my best friend and my then boyfriend, fuelled with arguments and toxicity,  but I still had a really good night. My best friend, Olivia Dullek, managed to be my new year’s kiss for three years in a row, so that was definitel...
