• We headed up to Hackney for dinner at Jim's Cafe tonight, a hipster diner in a former greasy spoon.
  • We sat in one of the original cafe booths and I ordered a Liquorice Whiskey Sour with whiskey, liquorice syrup, lemon and egg white.
  • I then tucked into one of the tastiest grilled cheese I've ever had on sourdough bread with caramelised onions a serving of pickles.
  • Tom had the veggie burger with a fried portobello topped with fennel salad, radish slaw, pickles and marmite mayo.
  • We wandered down to Eat 17, a Spar that turned hipster with a gorgeous floral arch at the entrance.
  • I tried some peanut cold brew from Beanbag Coffee which sounded delicious in theory but was pretty undrinkable.
