KOYA BAR LONDON

Yesterday we went out for dinner and decided to try out a cute little asian restaurant in Soho, called Koya Bar. A few friends of ours posted some images of their dinners there on Facebook and all of them looked absolutely delicious. So the expectations were huge. Those of you who live in London, know that it's absolutely normal to queue for a while before you get a table in a restaurant - same thing at Koya Bar. We were quite lucky though and got a table within 5 minutes. We ordered a starter to share and 2 Atsu-Atsu (Kitsune and Niku), you can see all the dishes in the photos. And the best thing is that our expectations were fulfilled - everything tasted wonderful! Also the size of the portions is very generous, there is no way you are going to leave this place hungry. The atmosphere is very chilled and relaxed, and the staff is super duper friendly. The only thing that we would change is the fact that they don't serve any dessert. We have to admit that's the first restaurant we have ever been to that doesn't offer desserts. If you are in London, you should definitely check this place out. We know we are coming back for sure. :)

DEDICATED TO #FOODPORN

Today's post is dedicated to food and its famous Instagram hashtag #foodporn. We have to admit that it became super normal for us to take photos of every bloody thing we eat. On one side it is super scary on the other it's kind of fun. Sometimes I ask myself why is it so popular to share your lunch, dinner or snack with the rest of the world? Or why do we enjoy ourselves scrolling through Instagram and checking on other's people food behaviour? Personally for us it's often about getting inspired and trying out new things. If we see something super delicious, we wanna cook it as well and may discover new products that we never tried before. Or if someone recommends a restaurant and adds a photo of what they offer there, we can decide quicker wether or not to try it out too. So, dear girls and boys, don't stop sharing your food with us and we won't do it either. So enjoy this huge overload on foodporn! Wanna check out our favourite restaurants?

Breakfast/Brunch: Giraffe

Giraffe offers you a perfect selection of breakfast and brunch plates. Additional to that they have a long list of extras, that you can order to personalise your choice. Our favourites are "Full Brunch" and "Eggs on toasted Focaccia". If you overslept and missed the breakfast time (they serve it until 12 pm), then you should check out their "Bar Buddies" special: selected beers, cocktails and wines are 50% off on Sunday-Friday evening. We tried some of their cocktails and they are delicous! Our favourite is "Skinny Ginny".
