Full disclosure, that is not my tub, it’s probably my dream tub. If anyone knows where I can rent an apartment that has this tub, let me know. Seriously! Initially I wanted this blog to be all about food, recipes, restaurant reviews etc, but I suppose I also want to share my knowledge on cruelty…
Afternoon Tea at The Ivy in the Lanes – A Review
After a much anticipated wait the doors to The Ivy in the Lanes opened in August 2018. I’ve been lucky enough to visit on a number of occasions for drinks at the beautiful marble bar which sits so perfectly in the middle of the room or to indulge in a quick brunch dish but this…
What’s in my Make Up Bag – A Cruelty Free Guide
As a girl with a make-up bag bursting at the seams I like to think I know a little thing or two about beauty products. It’s important to me that the products I use are cruelty-free. I am completely against animal testing and want to ensure that what I put on my face reflects my…
The Ultimate Vegan Gravy – A Recipe
Let’s face it, everyone loves a good gravy. Not the lumpy gloopy mess that comes from not stirring your granules & hot water fast enough. No, proper gravy! With sausage & mash, a glorious pie or roast potatoes on a Sunday. I promise you’ll love it, your friends will love it, even your Nan will…
The Jetty @ The Harbour Hotel – A Review
I suppose I’ve never given The Jetty much thought, being that it’s positioned on the corner of West Street and sandwiched in-between a Walkabout bar and a novelty gift shop it doesn’t exactly scream luxury. But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The dining room is beautifully bright and airy, with large floor…

Al Forno – A Review
At the very top of St James’s Street, Brighton, you’ll find an unassuming but authentic little pizzeria. The wood fire oven is blazing as you enter and the smell of herbs & garlic fill the room. The restaurant seats around 20, but we’re early and it’s quiet so we choose to sit at one of…
Ultimate Veggie Spag Bol – A Recipe
A classic dish, the humble spaghetti bolognese. It’s comforting and filling and just delicious. Plus twirling spaghetti makes me feel super glamorous; I imagine myself sitting in a cute little Italian restaurant, candles lit, red & white checked tablecloth, watching the sun go down over the incredible blue seas of the Amalfi Coast. Reality is…
Indian Summer – A Review
Indian Summer has been on my wish list for too long but last night felt right. After a day of cloud and gloom and cold, we booked a table for 19.30 and head out into the darkness of Brighton to seek out the comforting warmth of spices and heat. On stepping through the door it…
OK, so why The Brighton Veggie?
Why Brighton? Brighton is full of excitement, a special buzz that I’ve rarely felt in other places. There is something magical about being by the ocean, that feeling that indescribable feeling is the reason I found myself drawn back to Brighton after a short lived dream of life in the ‘big smoke’. What made you…
