Having been on an intermittent quest to find the perfect dressing gown/bathrobe, for about the last ten years, I was finallly introduced to The Bathrobe Company, Covent Garden. They were all lovely. Lots of russets and ochres and terracottas. kind of Persian weave type things. Heavy and substantial, with gorgeous details and proper big hoods. ... The shop and its wares came highly recommended by past customer, Sundae And I can now tick that quest off as completed...
.. wonderful belgian restaurant pictured above. It's a hidden gem of a place. You'd have to know iit was there. And I truly could not believe the prices. I'd expect those prices at a restaurant or good pub round my way, but this was Coven Garden ffs. And the food was really good. Cooked to perfection and well-presented without being showy. Lovely relaxed atmosphere to the place too....

Ah well, another time. Meanwhile I note SG has ace recommendations when I need a new bathrobe (I have one from that company and it is now around 16 years old ... ) and food () for next time I am passing through the Metropolis.
