mmm...

So last night I tried out some of the local entertainment. My friends and I headed for Bistroteque off of Cambridge Heath Road for a friends birthday. The food in the upstairs restaurant is a bit pricey (an average main meal is about £15) but delicious – I had the Duck Leg Confit which tasted amazing. There is a good deal to be had though if you don’t turn up late like we were – a three course meal for £17.50. We then went down the stairs to watch the £5 cabaret which was really funny. It built up slowly culminating in some weird and hilarious acts such as MC Gaff E - a lover of frozen peas and kangaroos. It's a really cool place and a fun night out, just make sure when you go you keep a look out as the building is hard to find.....

So how is living in Bethnal green going?.....Really well at the moment. I love the location, have found some really cool pubs which I only hope I get accepted in to as a local and have found that I have now learnt more about London than I have ever learnt the last three years I have been living here. This knowledge is thanks to the buses I have been taking everywhere as oppose to simply walking across the road to university. There is something about living further out that makes you less lazy, I suppose also I want to make the most of my weekly bus pass and so always jump at the chance to explore a new area with it. Have visited the graveyard in Hackney Central (that was a nice day), the hospital there and also the Primark! I’m making the most of the last few golden days before lectures start……
