Hiya!

Street Feast London had opened in a new location and its in...

Yup. The guys at Street Feast have turned an old unloved market into a trendy food hall. I went along and visited them on both Friday 2nd and Saturday 3rd; the reason behind this was that on Friday it was so busy that we couldn't try everything on offer so we returned on Saturday with kids in tow!

Burger & Beyond

Parmesan & Bacon Tater Tots // Hot Mess Burger // Waffle Fries 

I didn't get to try the burger as someone ate it all before I even took a bite! S said it was so good he wanted another one as the meat was juicy and it was spicy but not so much that you couldn't taste the meat. I LOVED these tater tots! The Parmesan worked wonders with the bacon and the potato! I had people come up to me asking what that was and where I had got it from as it smelt so good. The waffle fries was a big hit with Z. I had to stop him trying to eat it all as I took this picture.

Hens

1/4 British Chicken cooked on a charcoal fire with Lemon & Sage butter // Chips

We wanted to try the Chicken Bombers but they didn't have any so I thought that I should try the chicken and I was not disappointed! It was so soft, juicy and full of flavour! They gave us gravy on the side which I dare say would give KFC gravy a run for their money! We was disappointed with the fries as they was a bit burnt.

Ink.

Crispy Salt and Pepper Squid // Fish Nuggets and Hand-Cut Fries

The squid was the one I was most looking forward to but I was let down by it as there was no chilli flavour on the squid unless you ate a piece of chilli with it. The squid ink mayo tasted funny at first but after the first bite you get hooked on that sauce. I was extremely surprised by the  fish nuggets though as they tasted amazing! It was soft, juicy and so fresh. 

Salt Shed

Butterflied Lamb Steak with Mixed Chips

This was very tasty as the lamb was still tender yet juicy and the sauces worked amazingly well with the meat but I do have to confess that this is my second time having chips from here as they was very burnt on opening night which made me scared about re-ordering chips from them but luckily they looked amazing when we got this meal and tasted so goooooooooooood! Especially the carrot chips! 

Yumbuns + Yumplings

Pork Belly and Chicken Steamed buns //  Mixed Mushroom Steamed dumplings.

The buns were so delicious! Full of flavour and it tasted so fresh but I was let down by the dumplings. The sauce in which they used over powered any kind of mushroom flavour and it was very garlicy. 

Lava 

Hot Doughnut Puddings Double Choc // Salted Caramel

AMAZING! OMG! It smelt so good but once we cut open the doughnuts the sauces came rushing out! I loved it so much especially the salted caramel one! No words can describe these amazing little balls as they are just so good; the toppings worked so well with doughnut and ice-cream. 

- YOU NEED TO GET THESE -

I would highly recommend you visit here for catching up with friends and family as everyone there are so friendly and welcoming but its definitely not a venue for a family trip out as its not really 'kid-friendly' due to being very tight. I will be visiting again but with no kids in tow as I will NOT be able to eat anything as the kids will be snatching food right out of my hand AGAIN!

Please Note
that this is a review based on their opening night so I will be revisiting after a couple of weeks to see how they've settled down and then give a fairer review.

Public - Fridays 5pm until Late // Saturdays 12pm until Late

Urban Ice Woolwich

Hiya!

Urban Ice finally opened in Woolwich! OMG! You don't understand how long I waited for them to open! lol

I visited them on their opening day with Z and A.

Bubblegum Blast Sundae (£6.45)

A ordered this. It was the best bubblegum tasting sundae I've tried so far! It wasn't overly sweet and the bubblegum ice-cream tasted like the million sweets. I liked how they had two different coloured bubblegum ice-cream, pink and blue. It was very unique.

Oreo Sundae (£5.95)

No prizes for guessing who this sundae belonged to lol. Z didn't even look at the menu and asked for an Oreo sundae. I had to stop him from finishing it because it was just so much.

Nutella Freakshake (£8.95)

TAH-DAH! This is a Freak Shake and OMG! It was scary to look at! LOL I ordered this because I wanted to try their speciality. This monster of a shake contained a very thick Nutella blended milkshake with lots of Nutella spread around the glass mug which acted as a glue to stick the sugared ring doughnut. Within the doughnut hole they filled it with cream to help stick the cupcake! This was one crazy dessert and I did NOT finish this! LOL No where near! 

I had to take everything apart to try everything out and once I cut into the cake I found this..

Yup! Its filled with Nutella! lol I tried a bit of everything but I had to scoop the milkshake up because it was so thick! I used a straw at first but it was that thick it wasn't budging.

I loved this place so much I went back the very next day but for a takeaway.

Oreo Cheesecake (£3.45) & Caramel Tart (£2.95)

Z asked for another Oreo product and this time he asked for an Oreo Cheesecake which he demolished within 5 minutes! LOL. I love Caramel tarts due to the memories it brings. Remember school dinners? LOL yup! Fun times! The tart wasn't very sweet as it was a thin layer of caramel which worked perfectly. I didn't get the custard as it costed £1 extra and by the time I got it home it'd be cold so I just made my own custard.

Caramel Tart (£2.95) & Strawberry and Queen Cheesecake (£3.45)

This cheesecake was soooooo good!! The strawberries was a bit tart but worked amazingly well with the sweet white chocolate. The base wasn't soggy and very crispy.

Thick Shakes : 3 x Areo Mint, Nutella, Crunchie, After Eight and White Kinder Bueno. (Reg. £2.95)

We went to Urban Ice especially for these shakes but ended up getting the caramel tart and cheesecakes LOL. I tried all of the flavours and I prefer the Areo Mint one as it was refreshing. The shakes wasn't as thick as the Freak Shake which made it easier to drink. The one I liked least was the Nutella one as it was overly sweet so I had to add some milk to take some of that sweetness away.

Overall I will visit Urban Ice again because its closer and also because the staff there are so friendly and welcoming.

Bagel Boss Woolwich

Hiya!

Bagel Boss opened on the 3rd September in Woolwich and I managed to get 2 bagels and the Jerk wings but missed out on the Chicken, rice and peas. 

Boss Chicken Bagel (£2.75)

I was a bit disappointed with the Boss Chicken bagel but it was because they had ran out and had used a different cut of meat for it which they did say will not happen in the future.

Peri Peri Chicken Bagel (£2.75)

This bagel was so spicy but it tasted amazing! I loved how simple it looked yet it tasted great! I will definitely get this bagel again.

Jerk Chicken Wings (£2)

My number one thing to get is the jerk wings! It was full of flavour and for £2 for 6 wings its a bargain! 

On opening me and my friend visited this place and asked for a take-away as it was so busy. OMG! The smell that was coming out of the bag was so amazing! It makes my mouth salivate just thinking about it! The bagels were soft and sweet but balanced perfectly with the fillings.

Jerk Chicken Bagel (£2.75)

I got A to go and get me the Jerk Chicken Bagel on Monday and like usual the bagel was soft and worked so well with the jerk chicken filling. There was the same yummy taste as the wings but it was much more mild compared to the wings...

I feel like going down there for a portion of wings now.. *dribbles* but then again I would love to try their chicken, rice and peas and also their healthy drinks!

They are located at the bottom of Woolwich High Street opposite Woolwich Leisure Centre :)

Viet Baguette Woolwich

Hiya!

The other day I was craving Pho so me and S went to Viet Baguette in Woolwich. We haven't been here for a very long time as we've been very busy and hardly got any 'us' time so it was a real treat when we went out to eat just the two of us. 

Iced Lemon Tea

We both ordered the Ice Lemon Tea as it was a hot day and it was so refreshing! We did find that one was sweeter than the other but we just swapped as I love it sweet whereas S prefers it more lemony; this drink is homemade and tastes amazing during this hot weather.

 

Cha Chien (Fried Viet Pork Sausage) & Goi Cuon (Summer Rolls)

S Loves his Viet Sausage and it tastes delicious especially with the sweet chilli sauce! It's fried but it's not greasy which makes it a great compliment to any main dish. I have to have my summer rolls and Viet Baguette does an amazing summer roll as it tastes really fresh and their peanut dip is just mouth watering.

Bun Ga Nuong Dac Biet (Noodle with Grilled Chicken and Spring Roll)

S ordered this delicious dish. It was light and full of flavour! The chicken worked well with the vinegar sauce and gave the dish it's flavour. 

Pho Ga

Nothing beats an amazing pho stock and Viet baguette has an amazing stock. I ordered the Chicken Pho and my gosh it was d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s! Normally I don't order chicken as I do find it dry but it wasn't! They cut the chicken pieces thinly which helps it soak in that amazing soup and they don't give you just a bit of chicken they give a lot! I would definitely order this again.

I love Viet Baguette because the staff there are amazing and they are always willing to help. I would highly recommend you visit here if you're ever around Woolwich. They are hidden away but when you find this place you must try it! They do take-away to but I would say stay and enjoy the atmosphere.

What's your favourite Viet dish?

Wimpy Restaurant - Woolwich

Hiya!

So sorry I haven't been posting much but the app I used on my blog is down! I didn't want to wait anymore so I used another app.

It was a beautiful day in London and we wanted desserts so we went to our local Wimpy's. Instead of just ordering desserts we ended up ordering meals.

Mango Iced Smoothie

C ordered this delicious drink! It was sweet and full of flavour! A must try for a hot sunny day.

Wimpy's Strawberry Shake

J ordered this as she didn't want a dessert after her meal. J loved it as it wasn't very sweet and it wasn't too thick either. 

Scampi and Chips

I loved the scampi even though it was over cooked. The only downside is that they only provide you one packet of tartar sauce.

Wimpy's Spicy Bean Burger

J ordered this and she said it was very nice. There was a lot of flavour and it wasn't too spicy. It doesn't come with a side so she ordered chips. 

Great Wimpy Breakfast

C ordered this and ate everything except the tomatoes as she doesn't like tomatoes. She loved everything but she did wish that it came with some chips.

We only ordered 2 desserts as J didn't want one and we thought we'd just share.

knickerbocker glory Sundae

 There was a lot of fruit in here including a whole strawberry! It was okay but it was missing the strawberry sauce. They only put a tiny bit in and it just tasted like cream so we didn't finish it.

Brown Derby

OMG! This is amazing! The doughnut was hot and not very sweet but it worked very well with the ice cream and chocolate sauce.

What's your favourite Wimpy meal/dessert?

First Choice Cafe Woolwich

Hiya!

After a night out nothing beats a fry up and in Woolwich there are lots of choices but one of my favourite places to eat is First Choice Cafe as the portions are big and the price is amazing. 

I love the staff there as they're always smiling and so friendly. 

Homemade Shepherd's Pie 

This was alot of food! I didn't finish it all as there was too much but I couldn't stop eaten! The shepherd's pie contained more mash potato than meat and it was a bit dry. I loved the veggies especially the roast potato! The potatoes were sweet and full of flavour.

Grill Burger

S ordered a Grill burger and somehow managed to finished it all! He liked his meal especially the egg as it was cooked to his liking. He likes dipping things into the yolk.

What's your hangover cure?
