I am NOT a hipster!

Shops, cafes and restaurants visited 2015-2016:

Taste of Cambridge - Market Street, Cambridge

Food cart serving falafel wraps.
Will recommend to others.

AREA Cafe - 82 Castle Street, Cambridge

Breakfast and lunch.
Would recommend the daily specials, jacket potatoes and panini.


Ethos Restaurant - 48 Eastcastle Street, London (nearest tube: Oxford Circus)

Deliciously Different. Pay by weight. Serving vegetarian and vegan cuisine.
Will definitely visit again and recommend to others.

Green Valley - 36-37 Upper Berkeley Street, London (nearest tube: Marble Arch)
Lebanese Food Hall.
Over-hyped. Over-rated. Will not visit again.


The Breakfast Club Cafe - Battersea Rise, (nearest tube/station: Clapham Junction/Clapham Common)
Overpriced, average-tasting breakfast/brunch options surrounded by so-called 'retro' items. We managed to find a tv-video combo which my mother still used at home! A bit too hipster for the Domestic Goblin.



Oval Farmers Market - St Mark's Church, (nearest tube station: Oval)
Very easy to find, was located just opposite the tube station. 
The recommended bokit stall wasn't there on the day of our visit so tried the lamb pocket and pork dumpling combo at the Hao Hao Chi stall instead which was delicious and generously portioned.
