Alex & Duncan were down in London today and popped by to visit us.

We headed out for lunch at London Grind where they had a brand new cocktail menu, so I tried a Chai Mojito and Tom had the Turbo Gin & Tonic with cold brew.

To eat, I had the roast squash and quiona salad with freekah, pine nuts and paprika.

Tom had the crab tagliatelle which looked so good that it gave me food envy.

As Alex and Duncan were going to be flying out of London City Airport, we decided Crossrail Place in Canary Wharf would be a good halfway point to hang out at.

We could also take a walk through the gardens and listen to Tom play Christmas songs on the piano.

Most importantly, we could grab a pre-flight drink at the Island Bar in Giant Robot.

I sipped on a rose cocktail while we tried to decipher the binary code on the window. It said Giant Robot.

It was then time to wave bye to Alex & Duncan as they made their way to the airport. The queues for our tube home were so long, that we decided to hang out in Canary Wharf until rush hour was over.
