soft launch season is back! which is a pain because it's also study season, but I'll squeeze in as many as I can because I gotta eat anyway, right? Here's Florentine Restaurant & Bar's soft launch back before the break began!

Taking a break from studying to update this! Clearly life has gotten so boring that food is the most exciting thing I can think about to relieve the stress that is math. Finally checked out Salon at Brixton at the start of Easter break! This is after going to Brixton 999 times - there are just way too many food options there?! But glad we picked this out of the various Sunday brunch options because it was everything we needed for a #sundatebrunchdate

Back when Breddos Tacos just opened on Goswell Rd, YT was excited to go for the soft launch! Happy YT decided to go for lectures and go for the soft launch after, but tragically they were done by 3pm and were not serving food anymore! But it's okay because Granger & Co was nearby to save the day, and I finally ticked this off the list, after wanting to try this for-literally-ever.

On a tragic Monday afternoon, after another tragic weekly test, I comforted myself by going all the way to Mansion House for another soft launch at The Otherist, another new place by Drake and Morgan. The decor and ambience was lovely, and the location is quite spacious, and I didn't feel smothered. Rather, there was plenty of walking space everywhere, and since the restaurant is more long than wide, you don't feel too overwhelmed by all the other diners.

Hello! Ok have recently realised I have issues spelling cinnamon like instinctively I type cinammon instead. How embarrassing. Anyway! I've been looking forward to this opening for awhile, because Vivek Singh! I haven't gotten round to trying his other places, but I guess Cinnamon Bazaar was a good place to start. So when the dates for the soft launch came out I had to find someone to go with me, and thankfully J was free on a weekday lunch!

Finally back with a quick update - amidst the backlog of stuff I have to write about since I'm currently on a roll with soft launches and discounts, I wanted to post a quick one about a really great meal yesterday at Pomona's! They're still on their soft launch, having just started brunch service yesterday (which makes H and I the first people they served 'cos we were there at 11am whaaattt) I was pretty impressed with the food here and I haven't really been impressed by regular brunch food in a while (satisfied and enjoyed myself, maybe) and here's a place I'd really consider coming back to!

I am on a ROLL haha had brunch today at Caravan @ Bankside with 50% off during their soft launch again!! Was really worried there would be a queue considering how popular Caravan is but since I ended up there at 2pm after I woke up it wasn't full and I didn't have to wait at all (-: super excited because this lived up to the hype and sooo often brunches end up disappointing me sigh

Pausing my attempt to clear my backlog of travelogues to recap today's meal at Veneta! 50% off because soft launch was so so worth it and glad I found someone to go with me otherwise I couldn't have eaten so much? yay for food buddies (-: Anyway Veneta is under the Salt Yard group and is a tapas style restaurant so serving sizes are pretty small (~3-4 dishes per pax?)

Okay this is kinda a cheat post because it's going to be really short - but C & I dropped by Sloane Bros for some froyo after Dinerama because we needed somewhere warm to hide out in (yeah the irony is not lost on me) & I'm glad we did because it's a cute place that's really colourful and it's some good froyo. C & I ended up sitting around till 10pm when they had to close and at no point did we feel less than welcome!
