Goode and Wright, Sunday Aspirin Brunch

A lot was going on during these last days, so I apologize for my lack of posts!

But I am back! And this time I'll post about my favourite meal: Brunch!

After a very long night out we slept a few hours and woke up with an empty stomach begging for some attention. As we weren't in our best shapes the plan was to drag ourselves to the nearest Brunch place around. A quick search on Google allowed us to find the closest place between my friend's flat and mine: Goode&Wright on Portobello Road.

What a wonderful surprise! Owned by French guys we felt completely at ease. The French speaking waiter quickly understood in what mood we were and allowed us to order some aspirin!
The place is cosy, the service fast and friendly and the food oh so yummy! Incredibly beautifully presented, see by yourself on the pictures below.

We tried the Eggs Florentine, Eggs Benedict, their Sunday Roast and a more original dish made of Chorizo, Salad, Honey, Truffle oil and other tasty stuff. As the choice of the restaurant was completely impulsive and random (thank you Google) we didn't know what to expect and thankfully Goode&Wright's Brunch is delicious!

This was a perfect brunch, filling our belly and leaving us ready for the Sunday nap in front of good old Notting Hill movie.

Favourite brunch in Notting Hill

Have you ever been to Raoul's? It's a restaurant in Notting Hill where I use to drag myself on Sundays, usually after a big night out. I love the place, first of all because it is not far from my flat, and second (and most important of all) because brunchs there are incredible!

As I'm usually brain-dead when I arrive I spend way too much time trying to choose. But it is also because the menu is too big, and everything looks so tasty!
I mostly try to find inspiration in the plates of the people surrounding me but I finally end up picking something from their daily specials.

Smoothies are perfect for hang-over as the taste is yummy and it also feels so healthy! I definitely recommend their Eggs Florentine and the Greek Yoghurt with honey and nuts.

It is always full but I never had to wait more than 10 minutes to be seated as they offer two floors.


Eggs Florentine

Potato Cake
French Toasted Croissants with maple syrup and berries, yu-mmy !
Greek Yoghurt

Croissant with butter and jam

All this food pictures are making me hungry! So have a nice lunch everybody!

Lucky 7

Last Sunday, after a crazy Saturday night, I woke up in a state of starvation that I couldn't explain. I needed food and right away ! And of course, not healthy food ! I don't know if it is a common sensation, but paradoxically, after spending a night mistreating my liver with a lot of alcoholic beverages I have the feeling that what my body needs to repair is some greasy food, is it just me ?

Following that feeling and the advice of one of my good friend I dragged myself to Lucky 7 which is in Notting Hill, 5 minutes walk from my flat. So it was an easy walk.

Lucky 7 is a small American diner with the most amazing milkshakes ! I am completely addicted to this mixture made of ice-cream, milk and anything savoury blended together. Well, I was not disappointed when my chocolate and peanut butter milkshake suddenly appeared in front of me. Thick, sugary and cold. Yummy !

My friend and I were in a brunch mood (their brunch looked just as fantastic as the milkshake) but when we saw the menu on the chalkboard and started reading all the burger descriptions we quickly change our mind and opt for a big fat greasy burger !

My friend choose the God Father burger with mozzarella, artichokes, roasted pepper and basil pesto. And I took the Kalifornian one: bacon, cheese, guacamole, roasted tomato and sour cream.


Of course with French fries and massive onion rings !

I don't think it's necessary to add that my eyes were way bigger than my stomach ! And that I rolled myself back to my bed for a digestive nap afterwards.

I definitely recommend this place for a nice Sunday brunch or a huge tasty burger. Prices are fair, orders are copious and service is smiley and fast.



Have a chill rainy Sunday, folks !
