Barbecue at Home.
Is there anything better than an old-fashion BBQ on home turf with friends?
You never know what you need...

Lamb Chops in Red Wine & Mustard reduction.
Soak the Lamb in a mix of Zinfandel and wholegrain Mustard, along with chopped herbs, salt and pepper, for around 1 hour. Then separate the marinate and pan-fry the lamb. When there is some good color on there, stick them in a pre-heated oven for 5 minutes. Heat the marinate in a separate pan to reduce into a thicker sauce. Booyah. Serve.

Pall Mall Barbers.
Tired of being sick of overpriced salons and one pound clipper haircuts in Chinatown, I started going to Pall Mall Barbers in Piccadilly. Personally, I would count them in the same class as the famous Geo F Trumper and others alike.

Mr. Mark at Borough Market, taking a lunch break from work, as players do.
I was walking through Soho a couple of weeks ago and passed by this little label just outside Carnaby Street. William & George might not look like much at first but once I got a chance to look around the shop it was pretty clear these guys were doing something worth checking out.
Across the street stood Savile...
The Setup.
A Fine Day.
A massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders today. Finally handed in the last piece of work. Nothing to do but sit back and relax baby. Next week I’m off to Hampshire, and hopefully get some snaps of Watership Down.

John Lobb Shoes.
Found this on ‘The Steward’ blog and was struck with familiarity of the venue when I realized that this must be a promo picture for John Lobb. Famous for being as reluctant on advertising as Savile Row (and almost as expensive!), I was so surprised to see that such a modern picture even existed. The only reason why I know (I’m guessing) that this is an advert is because no...
