Crispy Squid from Zuma

We went to the Taste of London food fair today, the second year we’ve been. It’s a bit expensive but we love it. A great chance to taste a little sample of the food from dozens of London restaurants, which we would probably never get a chance to eat a full meal in. The crispy squid in the picture was the highlight by far. It is just so good. Hot, fried but not too greasy, salty, spicy, zesty with lime all at once. We think we’ve died and gone to heaven when we eat it.

Crisis in the Closet

What fun. Came home today after a massive rainstorm in London to find water leaking through the ceiling and into our closet. Who’d have thought it — after threats of a drought for weeks, now we’ve had so much rain in one day the building just can’t handle it. We are on the ground floor and the maintenance man thinks it may be a problem through all six floors! Credit for the photo goes to flickr’s mrlerone Summer in London
