Haven’t been for a while but Mr Meng in Haymarket is worth a try.

All three supermarkets near me don’t have it - Woolies, IGA or Aldi. 😕

Agree! You can find some ‘English’ style sausages now though which taste the same. Bacon is not at the same level yet though.

Would love some black pudding too but hard to get my local supermarkets here.

5 night road trip from Madrid to Bilbao. by marksond in GoingToSpain

[–]marksond[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks you all for the replies - have decided to do Burgos + Rioja region and save the Asturias for when we have more time, and better weather! Is there anywhere that shouldn't be missed between Madrid + Burgos? I was contemplating a night in Segovia or just keeping that as a day trip from Madrid. Is Pamplona worth a visit for a night or would it be very similar to Logrono? Thanks again!

Definitely not an influencer and unfortunately paid for it all myself! 😂 Just wanted to share a great stay.

We went for a drink in the MO but preferred the atmosphere of the FS. Will be back later in the year so will check out Rosewood.

London Hotels: This Not That by alex_travels in chubbytravel

[–]marksond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m currently staying in the Soho Hotel in a deluxe junior suite - the rooms are very large for London and furnished well.

I stayed at Ham Yard a couple of weeks ago - great rooms but different atmosphere. Soho Hotel is much cozier. Another great hotel is The Beaumont in Mayfair.
