Restaurant : Riding House Cafe, London, UK

I went here for brunch with friends on a Saturday in April. Being a BIG pancake fan I was very excited to see Buttermilk Pancakes on the menu.  Unfortunately they were dire (dry and cold) and I had to send them back. Second plate of pancakes much tastier. 

My mixed experience with the food quality and the EXTREMELY slow service would make me think again about returning here. 

1st attempt - dry, cold and hard pancakes. 

2nd attempt - light and fluffy - much tastier. 

Good wide choice for brunch menu. 

Cappuccino - looked good but was the weakest coffee ever - yawned away during and after drinking it! So did my friends. 

Time of visit: April 2014.

Restaurant : Vineria San Telmo, Seville, Spain

Quite simply divine tapas in a nice spot close to the Alcazar gardens.

Stack of tomato, aubergine, salmon and goats cheese. 

Cod, peppers and potatoes. 

Spanish tortilla. Mushrooms and onions. 

Broccoli cous cous. 

Yummy 'egg dessert'...tasted like of cross between a custard tart and creme caramel. Sweet but delicious.
