Fashion is a most definitely a passion, however I love to inspire people. I love sharing things I have discovered. From London originally but brought up in Berlin, family in Marrakech and spend most of my life living out of a suitcase. Most people would despise the continuous nomadic behaviour, however I thrive on packing for a new adventure! Stay tuned as I post about 2-3 times a week giving you a taster on my exciting finds!

WHEN IN CARNEGIE DELI - 'You are my Everest!!'

Food the size of the solar system!

We all know portions in the USA are beyond enormous. We know that we have to wear sweatpants and a loose T shirt to feel comfortable after eating in an American restaurant. You mentally prepare yourself for the Everest of all cheese cakes...but oh what light in yonder window breaks...you have never seen anything like Carnegie Deli.


You walk in and are surrounded by familiar faces of celebs. All greeting you as you wonder into this emporium of food heaven. You are seated and you gaze up at the wall to find all you fav images of celebrities who have been seated in the deli before you. Sit next to Jerry Springer, Woody Allen and even the cast members of Jersey Shore, everyone has had a taste of Carnegie Deli.

The menu is as big as Big Ben, you don't know where to begin and the choice keeps rolling out. However as an experienced Carnegie Deli goer I can tell you that if it is your first time here, you have to try their famous corned beef sandwich. Your wait is short and placed in front of you is only what I can descirbe to you as half a cow and two slithers of rye bread. However the beef is soooo succulent and juicy you can't help but plough yourself through it and each bite is a small piece of sandwich heaven.

Their cakes are the size of Jupiter, Mars and the Moon, dripping in flavour so leave some room for a chunk!

Never fear, if you are starting to explode and your body can take no more, but your mind and heart yearns for another bite then take home your leftovers. They taste just as good the next day!

This is a must dine When in New York!

When the cake hits your eye
Like a big-a pizza pie
That's amore
When the sandwiches are so wide
Like you've had too much wine
That's amore
