Holly was back in London today, before flying back to Texas, so we decided to make the most of her last day.

We started with lunch at Love Fresh Vietnamese in the Artworks at The Artworks Elephant. The summer rolls were delicious and super fresh.

We then headed for dessert at Dominique Ansel Bakery where all of the cakes looked amazing.

Holly picked out a hipster pastry with a moustache while I had the Liquid Caramel Peanut Butter Mousse which was one of the most delicious things I've ever tasted.

The one thing left on Holly's list of places to go was The Bletchley, a speakeasy inspired by code breaking and Bletchley Park.

We found a secret door marked British Ministry Of Defence in a back alley and made our way down the stairway into the bar.

Once inside, we were given new secret agent code names and military jackets to wear.

We were then shown to our table which had it's own enigma machine, welcome cocktails and a dossier of puzzles to crack.

The puzzles were nice and easy, so that it wasn't possible to fail and not get a drink. For example, one of the tasks included smelling different vials and picking your favourite scent.

Once we'd cracked the code, we then wired it into a phone on the wall to call up the bar with our answers.

Every cocktail is completely different, created using the answers submitted during the puzzles and come with the recipe in a little wax sealed note.
