Nespresso Coffee Class & Chinese Dim Sum ♪♪

We went to Royal China to have Chinese dim sum.


Long time no Royal China on Baker Street.

Always enjoy the food at this restaurant!

After nice lunch we walked to Maison Kayser to get some nice French baguette.

Then we walked to Selfridges. Nice Christmas decorations there.

Like many tourists we went to Harrods from Selfridges.

The reason why we went to Harrods was to kill our time before Nespresso coffee class. We had hot chocolate at the Godiva café.


When we finally arrived at Nespresso shop near Harrods, a glass of champagne was waiting!

I learnt a lot of things in this coffee class. Very useful.


This coffee class is highly recommended for Nespresso lovers.

Al Boccon Di Vino in Richmond ♪♪

We went back to no-menu Italian restaurant Al Boccon.


You just decide your wine.


They bring nice Italian dishes one after another!

 Started with a glass of Spumante!

& our 'first' bottle of wine!

Our 'second' bottle of red wine!!! 

Today's main dish!

We had more than 10 dishes. Sorry, forgot to take some pictures.

It started with a glass of spumante and, afterwards, we had 2 bottles of red wine!


You can imagine how drunk I was... Yes, party time!!!


We always enjoy both food & wine at this restaurant.


Love this very friendly Italian in Richmond!

Sushi Lunch & Shopping at F&M / Harrods ♪♪

I had lunch with my friend today.


Her request was Japanese so we had some sushi at Ikeda restaurant in Mayfair.

We had more & more sushi but I forgot to take the photos as usual...


Their Japanese sushi chef serves very authentic Japanese sushi, not sushi in English style. He is always there so their quality of sushi is very high and stable.


Everything was very fresh! I liked fatty tuna melting in my mouth!


After having nice sushi, we went shopping.


First destination was Bond Street. Christmas decorations everywhere!

Next destination was Fortnum & Mason.

At last we went to Harrods.

I got some mince pies and Christmas pudding today! Never too early! My husband already had some mince pies! 😁

Really enjoyed our girls out today.

Tea Break at The Lanesborough Hotel ♪♪

I went to the bar in the Lanesborough Hotel to have tea.


Long time no Lanesborough for me. Amazingly, their door men always remember me. They always say 'Welcome back!'.


I had fresh mint tea.

They asked me if I wanted to read newspaper and I said yes. They asked me about my preference. I said anything ok.


They brought me both The Guardian and The Telegraph. I felt that this was the first class service! I could compare the viewpoints from both right and left. The hotel staff knew that The Guardian readers did not like The Telegraph, and vice versa!


I really enjoyed my tea and French pastries.


The Lanesborough is the best place for tea break!
