We weren’t planning on stopping in Hounslow. It was a spontaneous detour on the way home from a long day out in London. The craving? Biryani. The vibe? Famished. After a few loops around the block, we found ourselves in front of Hyderabad (Biryani House)—a humble, fluorescent-lit eatery nestled among grocers and small shops off […]

There’s something enduringly special about the great British seaside, and Dawlish Warren in Devon delivers all the charm you’d hope for — with a few unexpected twists.

For years, Iford Manor has been on my list of ‘to visit’ places, particularly every time spring and summer rolls around. When their Grade 1 listed gardens open to public and summer outdoor plays invite visitors for a laid-back, entertaining afternoon, Iford is ‘the place to be’.

The Crab Shack is one of very few seafood restaurants in Teignmouth. Given its location by the sea, we expected to find several places that specialised in seafood but we were disappointed. In Teignmouth, positioned right along the English riviera coastline, there are only a handful of places where seafood is actually served.
