  • Saturday in London so we go shopping. Visiting some of the best coffee shops in Soho. Bar Italia is a Soho institution and Grind is the new kid on the block. Bread Ahead is a phenomenal bakery and they also have a bakers school at Borough Market. Famous for their bread, cakes and especially their doughnuts. Also visiting the Ginger pig butchers in Marylebone for some sausage and bacon. Just some of the things to do in london.

      But one fine day (at least a week), I shall finally walk those streets in person .

    My family and I lived in London for three years before having to move back to Germany in 2019. I miss London so much every single day, and this video just brought me right back home again. Thank you so much!

    It's been 10 years since leaving London and watching your walkabout around Soho brings back fond childhood memories. Didn't look as nice as now. Can't believe the Last Vegas arcades is still there in Soho. Used play there with friends way back 20+ years ago. Great vid 👌👍 helps us expats remember the good stuff of London.

    Finally back, I think that I speak for many others when I say that we need these relaxing, educative videos from magnificent almost historical scenery of London. I appreciate the professional narrative approach, quite deep knowledge of places, historical facts, but never boring. Even more now when we can't travel, such videos are very appreciated, keep Inspi-vlogging, if that's a word(partially).

    @davidholiday4494 Před 2 lety

    Great video!!! It takes me back to the 70's and 80's when I used to walk all those streets and buy ingredients to cook for myself and friends. I am now much older with mobility probems so I can't do that anymore. It breaks my heart. However, nice to see you doing it and achieving what you want. Marcus Wareing's recipe for baked beans looks stupendous - I must try it sometime. Nice to learn about new shops in Soho - it was very different before but the Berwick Street Market was much stronger in those days. Anyway, enjoy your meal!!!

    I lived and worked in London for 13 yrs, my favourite takeaway was M&S pork pie to eat in Green Park
    with English mustard, then a cup of Rosy Lee in a polystyrene cup. It was pre decimal when tea cost
    3 old pence per cup. In new decimal pence they still charged 3 pence effectively doubling the price
    overnight.

    oh thank god, when you said a grocers on Piccadilly, I thought 'I can only think of dear Fortnum's'! So glad it was. The Portuguese tart you had with your coffee looked gorgeous.
    Looking forward to seeing the actual beans on toast, sounds like they'll be quite ritzy if they are MW based! Happy you avoided the storm, we didn't get it too badly here in Suffolk, but as we trundled down to do a spot of shopping in Lakeside on Saturday a.m it was scary! Always good to see a new vlog from you Mr R.

    There is a nutritional supplement called L-Theanine. It is the neurotransmitter that makes you feel focused and sharp when you drink coffee. The only thing you can eat that has L-Theanine in it is green tea, But you can buy supplements at whole foods. Really a good combination to take a supplement and have a cup. You will not lose focus and you will feel less jittery if you supplement with L-Theanine.

They are so inspiring to me. Cannot wait to get back there in June!!!

    Talk about a clickbait title, you've gone to some of the best known and most hyped up shops in London but there are certainly better places in all 3 categories.
    Bar Italia is one of London's most famous old coffee bars but they don't do the best coffee in the whole city by a long way. Ginger Pig is a very good small chain of butchers, but they pale in comparison to some of their competition at Borough Market and further afield at Smithfield, as well as next to many of the best farms who sell produce at the city's many weekly farmers markets. Lastly, like your video, Fortnum and Mason's and London's other best known department stores are aimed primarily at tourists and people who don't know any better.

  • @MarmiteCrumpets
    @MarmiteCrumpets Před 4 lety

    I can't imagine why anyone would want to spend an absolute fortune essentially recreating a tin of baked beans, and the air miles, apart from the localised cycling? I could produce the ultimate cassoulet for a fraction of the price, not living in London helps. On the other hand I could buy a Halford's gridiron bike for £200 yet I spend thousands on the ultimate machines. Whatever floats your boat I guess... beans or bikes.
