Coffee Shop - London
Also based in Soho area, pretty much the same as Flat White.
Is a over flow of Flat white when it gets too busy, never has a place to sit either, but some benches outside is ok if you want a quick coffee.
Wanted to try and see if i could get a single shot espresso but they could only offer me a double ristretto which was ok. As they tend to still only stick to the double group heads.
Place seemed like it needs a little tidying though.

Gordon Ramsay at Claridges
Modern European - London
Food wasn't too bad, there are a lot of waiters around but the service was so slow... the wait inbetween course was long for some strange reason.
The place looks fantastic though and a big open restuarant.
I can see why this place lost their Michelin star though, it didnt give anything that special.

Maze fine dinning
French Cuisine- London
One of my favourite fine dinning restuarants with great food, atmosphere and service.
The place is relaxed and isnt a place you would feel out of place with nice back ground music.
A large selction on the menus and some tastey cocktails but pricey drinks but they use only the best produce though.
There wasnt much waiting around once seated and each course came after the other with only a very short wait.
The attention to detail and the way the dishes are presented just puts a smile on you.
Eash dish you could taste everything that is in it, and so delicate and great tasting.
Will definately be back here again.

Wellington Coffee
Coffee shop - Edinburgh
Nice little coffee shop situated in a corner location.
Was a small and simple place and a simple menu, didnt have much food selection, but i dont tend to focus on those when i look for a decent coffee.
A small selection of cakes, nothing that took to my attention though.
Had a glass of water served with my espresso, which not many places actually do.
Seems to be an Aussie run place, not bad blend actually, and an attempt of latte art on a latte which is always nice to see.

Entice Pancakes
Pancake and waffle cafe - Birmingham
Its nice to have something like this around, its a shame people don't appreciate it in the area.
The owner works here and is a very nice friendly person, and is always working every time i have walked past at any hour of the day!
Home made ice cream Italian style, and the owner is trained in Italy.
A great selection and good pricing, will be back here in the summer for the ice cream though, for only an extra 60p with waffles or pancakes. Really seems like a crepe though so i'm not sure if they call it pancake as not many people seem to understand what a crepe was.
Only down side is the fit out and seatings, gives a dinner look which kind of gives a little less inviting look and feel to the place to want to stay there.

Laduree
Cafe - Paris
Very busy cafe, and a nice place which is designed very a unique way.
Seeing the Que for the patisserie counter was shocking and it is none stop.
Have been in this place many times and still i find myself coming back every time I'm in Paris.
There is other Laduree's outside of France but they are not the same experience, the place has the best Macaroons i have tried in many places and the selection they have!
Have tried lunch here and great food, and they do amazing omelette's with a delicate texture and plenty flavour.
A large selection of drinks and food on the menu for both morning and lunch served right up to midnight.
In the back is an amazing room that no detail left out, and a very unique look no one else has and seems like an oyster room. We had our breakfast in the room and the quality is spot on, everything was fresh. But is an expensive place!

Saint Caffe
Coffee Bar - Birmingham
Great decor in this place, has a nice feel to it, and a great selection of cakes and drinks.
Great blend and latte art and noticed some customers with their chocolate art also.
Simple to decide, has 2 sizes to choose from and in reasonable cup sizing again... and no bucket cups.
Espresso served with glass of water and staff are friendly and well mannered.
Shame the washrooms was a bit pink, the rest has a different look to other coffee bars though.
