Hello!
Happy January! I hope these first few weeks of twenty-eighteen are treating you well (Don't worry, this dreaded month is almost over, and pay day is just around the corner. You can make it through x)
This is the year that I'll be jet setting to the other side of the world, for the adventure of a lifetime.(literally cannot contain my excitement, June please freakin' hurry up) I've got a good few months before then though, and I don't want to waste them counting down the days, so I've been exploring new places in London that I've heard of but never made the effort to go. (I also booked a trip to Paris at the end of February because, when I feel sad I don't just buy chocolate like a normal person, I buy flights)
This week, I took to South Kensington to the Élan Café.
The prettiest cafe I've ever been to!
It's filled with flowers, blossom trees, marble and rose gold everything, I wish my house looked like this.
It's located down Brompton Road, South Kensington, just a short walk from the V&A, it's in the perfect spot if you're shopping, or on a touristy day out in London.
(Close to South Kensington Station - Circle/District/Piccadilly line
or
Knightsbridge Station - Piccadilly Line)
They have two cafés open in London, there's a smaller one about 10 minutes from Marble Arch Station which we thought was the main one, but the bigger, nicer one is down Brompton Road. The smaller one is still very cosy but we decided to get an uber (it was raining) to the one we've seen all over Instagram.
I admit, I only went to this Café because it looked pretty and I wanted a picture of the amazing flower wall, but it turns out that the food was even better.
They serve different 'brunch' meals, as well as special herbal tea's, cake's, coffee and salads.
I ordered the beetroot marinated salmon with poached egg on a flat bread, and it was actually incredible. I know it doesn't sound that special but it's deffo the best I've had.
I did resist the cakes (one of my best achievements) but I had serious food envy for the girl next to me.
There's something for everyone here, even an acai bowl for you vegans, it's the perfect place to brunch or have afternoon tea with your friends or your mum.
If you're around the area then go and pop in for some cake, it's so beautiful!
Lots of love,
kate
