Kyoto Kitchen Winchester

Kyoto Kitchen

Kyoto Kitchen is one of the best places to eat in Winchester. The staff are wonderful, attentive and they make you feel like you are the most important people to ever eat at this incredible Japanese restaurant.

The sushi, maki and sashimi are fabulous especially the tuna with poppy seeds, they will make you think you are in heaven. Every morsel will melt in your mouth and you will be pleasantly surprised, if you have never eaten raw fish or sushi before, you will be hooked. The scallops are always the main event for us as they are so jaw droopingly amazing, you will revel in the memories of their succulent and delicate taste for weeks on end after you have visited.

In actual fact the miso soup is on another level, you would be hard pushed to find anywhere that could possibly compare to this astonishing array of dishes. You will be blown away by the service and the food.

50 Kisses at BAFTA for Guinness World Records

I recently attended the 50 Kisses screening event at BAFTA. It was also to celebrate 50 Kisses getting into Guinness Book of Records as the film with the most co-writers. The writers of 50 Kisses gathered at BAFTA to celebrate the news that they had collectively entered the Guinness Book Of Records for the most co-writers on a feature film. The video, from 50 Kisses and director Chris Jones, is below. Congratulations all. It was a great event and we also caught up with British actor Jon Campling and film distributor David Wilkinson.

Herve Leger By Max Azria AW14

For AW14 Hervé Léger by Max Azria enters the world of technology, diffusing the line between fantasy and reality. Cool shades of blue, black and grey are intensified by luminous orange and a splash of lime. Nature inspired textures are digitally transformed into 3-D jacquards and pixelated metal beading. Contrasting bandages and cage-corset belts frame and define the form. Shielded in arctic furs and exotic feathers, she is fearless and confident. Thigh-high boots with textured metal heels and structured clutches give her a refined edge.

Beech’s Chocolate Creams Review

Some things are more fun to review than others. Chocolate is one of those things right at the top of the enjoyable list.

We got sent a box of Beech’s Fine Chocolates Creams, actually, we got sent SIX boxes, and it really made our day. We devoured them in less than five days. Although we are not sure we should admit that.

Winchester Street Style

Fashion design really starts with street style. Everyday people out and about have no idea they could be the inspiration for the next big trend in fashion and style. Getting spotted doesn’t necessarily mean being featured on a runway or being asked to model for the latest campaign. Designers are constantly looking at everyday life for their next collections visual muse.

We decided to hit the streets of Winchester to see all the fabulous fashion that it had to offer. Winchester is becoming very well know for its Fashion Week. The last one was at the beginning of April and was a huge success. It is now a key date in the calendar in the South East. Also one of the most talked-about fashion events outside of London.

Seeing that the city is steeped in history and it used to be the former capital of England it needed some real fashion savvy reporting. So with this is mind and a camera in hand it was high time to snap away, not the models…No we wanted to see the real people of this beautiful city. The people that are more commonly known as Wintonians.

Wintonian FashionThis rather fabulous lady was elegantly gliding her way down the High Street, we just had to stop her for a snap. Totally fabulous in every way possible.IMG_1213Casual and so very polished. Matching accessories even when dressing down. IMG_1233Casual outfits done to perfection. Real understated style and oh so preppy. Red trousers are the essential style statement to any truly fabulous man’s wardrobe. Those shoes below…the most stylish looking lady. Cool, trendy and radiant from head to foot.IMG_1235We are loving the distressed jeans.IMG_1236We took a scenic wander around the Cathedral and spotted cool, stylish and effortless fashion everywhere.IMG_1237Fun, young and confident style was found in bucket loads too! IMG_1238IMG_1239Even the fashionable dogs in winchester have stylish owners!

IMG_1242Colourful accessories are not just about a vibrant scarf and cute shoes.

We have to say Winchester you are spectacular in every way possible! IMG_1243

Snack Attack! Snack Ideas From Frost

Choc Shot Liquid Chocolate

This is a brilliant invention. This liquid hot chocolate just needs to be stirred into hot milk. However it’s a hot chocolate that is not just for drinking. You can spread on toast, squeeze and shake for a milk shake and drizzle over ice cream, porridge and fruit. It tastes great, like a high quality dark chocolate. Not the bitter ones though, it is very sweet. It is 100% natural, low GI, GM and gluten-free, vegan and only 14 calories per tsp. Wow and wow. I think we just found out how we are going to be getting our chocolate fixes from now on.

If you loved the concept and appeal of Pandora jewellery, the Endless jewellery collection is about to hit your dressing table! Brought to the market by the Danish family who were the first to get the rights to sell Pandora internationally, this fast growing business launched the Endless brand in 2013 and the customer reaction to the collection was exceptional, so much so that in 2014, they are expanding internationally in Europe and the United States, and are now distributing in the UK. The spirit of Endless is ‘love, fun, friendship and much more’, reflected in every fun piece through exciting colourways and the most exquisite charms which will become as addictive as the Pandora legacy.

braceletsThere are hundreds of different charms to choose from in plated rose gold, 18 carat gold and sterling silver (always a best seller), all adorned with real gemstones. Perhaps combine the golden charms with the new brown leather bracelet to obtain a modern yet classic look, or if you like a more young and modern piece, choose black and grey leather with just a few selected charms… sassy! To find jewellery with such versatility is unique, imagine a bracelet which can be worn to the office with low key, structured adornments, carrying through to sophisticated key piece evening embelishments, eye-catching gems, loaded with style and glitz, then de-constructing for holiday, building combinations around sumptuous yellow leather to reflect sunshine, friendships and memories.
