If you follow us on Instagram (@lightningwines), you probably noticed I was in England a couple of weeks ago. It was a whirlwind trip of work and fun as I crammed in my favorite things to do while in the London-area.
My trip started off with a Sunday roast dinner after landing in Britain. It was really my normal Sunday brunchin’ time but I jumped right in with a pint and a huge plate of food drowned in delicious brown gravy. I was awake so early most mornings that I was able to take some great long runs and explore in the quiet cool before the hustle and bustle. I love these old cobblestone streets.
It wouldn’t be right to be in Britain and not have a proper tea (and I do love tiny sandwiches) and hit a fun pub (or two).
London brought the rain but I had a fantastic dinner at The Lighterman (Granary Square, King’s Cross) – people-watching over the square before finally tossing my horrible travel umbrella away.
While in Harvey Nichols, I had a great chat about whisky in the Liquor/Spirits department and ended up with a very nice souvenir for R Lightning! I also snapped this photo of a prepared cocktail. I thought Brits hated peanut butter?
