We headed up to Hackney for dinner at Jim's Cafe tonight, a hipster diner in a former greasy spoon.
We sat in one of the original cafe booths and I ordered a Liquorice Whiskey Sour with whiskey, liquorice syrup, lemon and egg white.
I then tucked into one of the tastiest grilled cheese I've ever had on sourdough bread with caramelised onions a serving of pickles.
Tom had the veggie burger with a fried portobello topped with fennel salad, radish slaw, pickles and marmite mayo.
We wandered down to Eat 17, a Spar that turned hipster with a gorgeous floral arch at the entrance.
I tried some peanut cold brew from Beanbag Coffee which sounded delicious in theory but was pretty undrinkable.
We then headed to Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream in Camden for dessert.
We tried a Bilog, which was like a donut filled with Ube purple yam ice cream.
Afterwards we headed to Pirate Studios in Notting Hill where Tom had booked out a studio so he could practise drumming.
