Monday 18 July - Eating like kings

Current location: Covent garden

11.11pm. Oh my. At 11.11pm, we were eating. At 10.10pm, we were eating. At 9.09pm, we were eating. But what were we eating, you might wonder?

Oysters

Two types of crab

An entire lobster

Four types of steak (rib-eye, d-rump t-bone, fillet)

Creamed spinach

Mash potato with gravy

Buttered greens

Macaroni cheese (fancier than it sounds)

Kimchi burger

Smoked burger

Beef dripping chips

Triple-cooked chips

Sausages

Sweet potato

Bone marrow

Slow-cooked ribs

I'm going to repeat the first four: Oysters, crab, lobster and steak. Yep. I'd never even tried lobster before (unfortunately for my bank balance, it's now one of my new favourite things).

Nicky, Ruth, Jack, Andy and I went to Hawksmoor, aka Heaven in Covent Garden. Nicky works there and we all wanted to see the fancy place she works at that celebs go to (even Mick Hucknall). We got all dressed up and had a beautiful night. Oh my goodness; we were so treated (we definitely didn't order all the food we got) and it was, quite honestly, one of the best nights of my life. I'm pretty sure I will never, ever eat such good food again. Dining like kings! Kind of makes the cake from earlier pale into insignificance somewhat...
