Eat Clean, Think Dirty!

Oh hey dolls! So let’s have a little chat, a little kiki. Those of you who know me personally (or follow me on Instagram) know that I love to eat. You know those people who have no interest in food? The ones who are like “yah I just ate a tomato and an old sock for … Continue reading Eat Clean, Think Dirty!

OOTD: Ghanaian Independence Day Slayage

Friday March 6th, 2015, marked 58 years since my home country Ghana declared its independence from colonial rule. Formerly known as the Gold Coast, Ghana was the first sub-Saharan nation to gain independence. This is a source of great pride, and we have so many reasons to celebrate.

Winter Warmers: Southbank Christmas Market

Dahlings! Adjpants here, reporting live from the Winter Wonderland that is currently London. I’m normally not a huge fan of Christmas. I always spend the festive season in the tropics, and while it’s fabulous and hot and lush, it doesn’t always feel that Christmassy. This year for a change I’ll be staying put in London, … Continue reading Winter Warmers: Southbank Christmas Market

Cupcakes Muffins and Tarts, Oh My: Brown Sugar Café, Melbourne, Australia

During my very first weekend in Melbourne, I got hopelessly lost in the city. I was jetlagged, the accents were confusing, and I had yet to spot anyone from the Home and Away cast. Just as I was on the verge of a tantrum I spotted a bright red sign down a laneway. The rest, … Continue reading Cupcakes Muffins and Tarts, Oh My: Brown Sugar Café, Melbourne, Australia

A Taste of Home: 805 Restaurant, North London

There are few things I love more than Nigerian food. My dreams are filled with towering mountains of jollof rice, rivers that run red with palm oil, and forests of emerald-green bitterleaf. I was blessed to grow up in a home where both Nigerian and Ghanaian delicacies appeared on the dinner table. Whenever I visit … Continue reading A Taste of Home: 805 Restaurant, North London

They See Me Rolling: Roll’d Hardware Lane, Melbourne, Australia

I was devastated when my buddy Tung from the office resigned, explaining that he was starting a family business. He then said “We’re opening up a Vietnamese street food restaurant in the city.” I looked up from drying my tears, my attention and appetite piqued. Fast-forward a few months down the line and his restaurant, … Continue reading They See Me Rolling: Roll’d Hardware Lane, Melbourne, Australia

Froyo Frenzy: Yo-Chi Frozen Yoghurt Bar, Melbourne, Australia

Here are my two favourite lies to tell myself. 1) I will be one day become Mrs Denzel Washington. 2) Frozen yoghurt, as opposed to ice-cream, is GOOD FOR YOU. Yes. I know that both of these delicious treats (ice cream and yoghurt, that is, not ice cream and Denzel) are pretty much made of … Continue reading Froyo Frenzy: Yo-Chi Frozen Yoghurt Bar, Melbourne, Australia

K-I-S-S-I-N-G: Treehouse Lounge, Melbourne, Australia

Research has shown that eating at Treehouse Lounge is proven to make you more attractive. My research, that is. This sultry, sexy joint on Carlisle Street is one of my absolute favourites. I bring people here when I want to impress (and possibly make kissy-face with them later). As soon as you step inside, you’re … Continue reading K-I-S-S-I-N-G: Treehouse Lounge, Melbourne, Australia
