Never watched Spooks before so when the new series started, with a highly frustrating and improbable story, initially I was in two minds but there was too much tension to turn over.

It does push the barriers of believability a bit too far but then again that is why I like the Hustle on BBC TV.

Me and Angela went to this restaurant as it was one of our friend's surprise birthday party. It was a very interesting place. Goes back much further than it looks and we had one of the private dining areas with about 24 of us there. Next to our room was the Chef's Table which is another dining area but where the chef delivers a custom evening of food a drink specifically for your event.

The staff were very efficient and once we sat down after the chit chat it was all pretty much excellent. We could actually see into the kitchen area from where we sat and all we saw all night was a very well oiled machine. No fuss or noise came out of there. Are those reality kitchen shows a bit of a over dramatic affair then?

OK, so this is not of the alcoholic kind and maybe it could even go into the Health section but I just wanted to get a few notes down on Japanese green tea as it is really nice and supposedly very good for you.

Don't confuse Japanese green tea to those that are packaged as Green Tea but from China. They are quite different things and definitely far apart with regards to their tastes. It is quite funny how as a British Born Chinese I absolutely love Japanese green tea and my Japanese friends always talk about drinking Chinese Oolong tea.

This is a very funny programme for adults and kids alike. The dafter the myth the better the rebuttal. On BBC2 Thursday nights.

On entry it looked like a Wagamama copy, and on appearance it is. It is a formula that works. However, the food is so much better. Not saying Wagamama is bad, I'm just saying this is good stuff.

Situated on Upper Street in Islington, it is one of many eating places around there on the main strip.

Seeing as we were in London to do a conference the next day I was in two minds whether it was the best idea to have a curry the night before!

I played it safe and had something from the Tandoori menu. I went for slow cooked lamb chops. It wasn't bad but I doubt I will go for it again. It tried to be very contemporary inside but the food didn't reach those heights for me.
