Yep, you guessed it! It’s time for another round of WIAW…
As always a massive thank you to the lovely Jenn for creating this link-up! If you’re new to this, go check out her blog to see what it’s all about
Rather than share a typical day of food with you, I want to show you some photos of the rather fantastic food that I’ve been eating with Tom this week. You are definitely in for an absolute treat!
Breakfast here is my usual staple, bowl upon bowl of weetabix… I thought you wouldn’t be interested so I’ll go straight to lunch:
A rather tasty tomato chicken pasta salad bought from Boots (along with a couple of lipsticks I just couldn’t resist!)
Along with pretty nice lunches I’ve also been enjoying several cups of this stuff:
Caramel lattes are the best way to warm up when the rain is falling heavily outside. As you may have guessed, Tom and I have spent many hours sat by cafe windows watching the world (and the rain) go by.
However, the real treat I’ve been eating this week has definitely been dinner. On Monday night a group of Tom’s friends decided to go watch the football in a pub and then take a trip to the cinema to watch Men In Black 3. We thought the time in between would be a perfect opportunity to grab some dinner
Scampi and chips from a local fish n’ chip restaurant. The scampi was lovely and fresh and the portion was perfect – I ate the entire plate. Well we wouldn’t want it going to waste would we?
I was a little apathetic about the film beforehand but it actually turned out to be pretty funny, I enjoyed it and it was fun to go out with Tom’s friends.
Now, I have definitely saved the best till last!
Last night Tom booked us a table at a really lovely restaurant and we dressed up for our three course meal together, to celebrate the end of exams and the start of our summer together. It was easily the best meal I’ve eaten in ages. Tom wore his gorgeous new blazer from Zara and I wore my favourite maxi from FCUK, I think we make a pretty smart couple…
To start with I went for a dish of spicy aubergine crostini which was fantastic.
Tom decided to have an avocado and prawn starter which looked really good too, it would have been my second choice!
For the main course the choice was clear and we both went for the same thing. A dish of fresh trout served with gorgeous greens and a special potato mash. It was just wonderful, the butter sauce was absolutely delicious!
Finally, what could better complete a beautiful dinner than an amazing chocolate pavlova (mine) and the perfect crème brûlée (Tom’s)…
It was such a brilliant evening, we strolled back home around 10pm when it was still light and settled down with full and happy stomachs. I only have a couple of days left here with Tom before I head back home for a week. I have been having the most amazing time and I am so lucky to have Tom, he makes me feel like one very lucky girl!
I hope you are all having a lovely week and that it has been raining less where you are than here!
What is the best thing you’ve eaten this week?
Have you eaten out recently?











You are officially causing me to miss England. Haven’t had good chips since I came back to the States. I miss my fish-n-chips shop in Covent Garden. Your dinner looks lovely!
Sorry
There is just something so comforting about fish and chips isn’t there, eating it always makes me feel a bit nostalgic. Thank you!
That creme brulee!! Man everything in this WIAW is so unbelievably tasty looking!
I’m so glad you and Tom had such a wonderful time together, you guys are so cute!
Thank you Alexandra
Tom says the creme brulee was delicious! Hope you had a great weekend!
Sophie, you look absolutely stunning!
Can’t wait to meet up soon and hear all about it!
Thank you lovely
See you tomorrow!!
Everything…drool! That caramel latte looks and sounds so amazing
It was so good, plus the caramel syrup was sugar free – win!
Caramel latte-yumm
oh wow that shrimp scamp & chips look to. die. for!
what a lovely picture of you and Tom
I am so so glad you two are back together in the same space again! The creme brulee looks simply perfect, as does the latte.. so delicate? I don’t know that word just seems to work to describe it!
Thank you Tessa! We had a really wonderful time together, I feel so blessed after the last two weeks
You guys make a sweet couple. The meal looks fantastic!
Thanks Jemma
Glad you think so!
That meal looks lovely! I recognise those tables in Esquires! Its been too long since I’ve been there
Hehe yes they’re very distinctive aren’t they, we went there almost everyday as it’s the perfect walk along the river from Tom’s house!
Everything looks so good! I’m glad you enjoyed your time together
Thank you Brittany!
Your fancy meal looks absolutely gorgeous, as do you! Glad you’re having such a lovely time x

Wow, looks like quite the gourmet dinner
You guys look great in the picture!
It was so delicious! Thank you Sarah
You had me drooling by the end of this post! So much delicious looking food. You look absolutely gorgeous in that photo with Tom. Glad you’re having a great time!
I drool every time I see the photos
Thank you so much Chloe!
Oooh I love Esquires coffee! There aren’t that many of them near me but they have the best range of flavours ever
Oh gosh their range of syrups is amazing! I wish I’d had time to try them all!
Exactly! Cept that would definitely involve me spending a ridiculous amount of money on coffee – and I spend enough already..
You guys are so cute and romantic! And wow, I would love to spend my mornings at a nice cafe and with a caramel latte. And a good book, of course
Aw thank you
It’s my favourite way to spend mornings (and afternoons!) it’s so relaxing
You look gorgeous in that dress! I cannot get over all this good food! Those fish and chips look YUM!
Thank you Brittany
All of the food was so delicious!
Aww, you two look so cute together. And of course all the food (espcially the chocolate pavlova) looks amazing. So glad you’re enjoying your summer
Thank you lovely! The chocolate pavlova was so so good
Hope you’re doing well!
