Meat Lovers... Your welcome!

Chips, Chicken, Steak... As a Meal or in a sandwiches?

If I have caught your attention already you will most defiantly going to appreciate this blog.
I recently visisted Tramshed Shoreditch, a HIX restaurant.

The visit was very last minute and arrange by my aunt so I had done no research into the restaurant before hand therefore had standard expectations.

From arrival to the moment we left all staff members where delighful and incredibly helpful. I must say our waitress had all the answers to our questions, not only about the menu but about the restaurants art by Damien Hirst and the histroy of the restaurant.

It was refreshing to see staff enthusatstic about their work on such a lovely bank holiday.

Now on to the food! By the way although this is very meat infused restaurant they can also cater to veggies and pesces.
However we thought we would order a range of dishes from their main menu to really try out what they have to offer so here it goes:

1 Yorkshire pudding with whipped chicken livers
1 Yorkshire pudding with just gravy
1 portion of pork crackling
1 Roast barn-reared Indian Rock chicken with sage and onion stuffing and chips to share between 3
Chateau steak
Filet Steak Salad
Chicken and Egg a breaded escalope topped with a Burford Brown egg, anchovies and capers
3 Portions of Chips
1 portion of sage and onion stuffing
2 Peruvian Gold chocolate mousse with honeycomb
Raspberry and Mango Sorbet
Credit crunch ice cream with hot chocolate sauce

Disclaimer there was 6 of us not just me and my aunt! 
So we all tried bits of everything that was ordered however I did not try the crackling or livers, when something is not for you its just not.

The feedback on the cracking and livers was thumbs up all round. The chicken, chips and gravy was a great combo, cooked incredibly well that the meat was soft the whole way through with a little crunch on the outside. The chicken escalope, stuffing and Chateau steak where my favorite dishes we tried flavorful and soft. The filet steak salad was nice however I felt like there could have been a little more steak just to be able to fill you up if you was eating it alone as it is a main meal. 
Sorbets where perfection and was my choice of course, if you are not a chocolate lover do not get the chocolate mousse. I thought it may have a light chocolate flavor but it was quite rich, which was perfect for the others. Finally the credit crunch ice cream is a pudding you can not go wrong with and should meet any sweet toothers desert requirements.

Overall all 6 of us were incredibly pleased with Tramshed and will be returning in the near future.
For those with young kids, this is somewhere that not only caters to children but welcomes them with open arms and Kids aged 10 and under get a free main course when dining off the calves’ menu and accompanied by an adult dining in the restaurant. Available all week from 12-6pm. 

If any of you do visit the restaurant after reading the blog do let us know what your experience was like.

And if anyone has any restaurant you think we should review send the suggestions over!

Kera Care Love!

It has been two months since I started using the Kera Care Winter package.

I never use one set of shampoo and masks at once just because I have found if my hair gets to use to products it tends to not work as well.

So I decide to alternate between Kera Care and my other Shampoo and Mask; however for the 6 weeks I only used the Kera Care essential oils and these last two weeks I mixed in a little Black Seed Oil.

The shampoo has left my hair feeling very clean and not too stiff; I decided to put a few drops of the essential oils in the shampoo to just give my hair that extra softness after shampoo and it seemed to work well.

The mask worked really well with my hair and gave it a soft bounce. I then used the mask for heat treatments and kept it in for 3 hours and this made my curls pop!

On a bi-weekly basis I done a heat treatment and alternate weeks a mask treatment.

Having curly hair I tend to use more masks and conditioners over shampoos, I have just found my curls look better and my hair feels softer and more moistened.

So the essential oils, this may have been the best product I could have started using in November. It has made my ends feel a lot stronger and unlike the 100% coconut oil I used to use it keeps my whole hair soft and shinny throughout the day.

I have used this oil during my natural hair days and after getting a blow dry and found it stopped my hair frizzing!

I also used the oil as a hot oil treatment the day before blow drying my hair and I can honestly say my hair has never looked so shinny and thick.

Although I have very curly hair it has become quite fine due to all the types of extensions I have used in the past however these last two months my hairdressers and family have passed comments about my hair looking thicker. Now I put this down to my ends looking a lot healthier.

I started mixing the essential oils with the black seed oil just because I have been reading a number of benefits with the oil, so I have altered my routine to alternate the days. When I did my last heat treatment on Sunday I mixed the oils for the first time and I just found the texture was still soft but my curls where not as tight.

That can be a pro or con depending on your preference however I now know heavier oils make the curl loser which may be great just before getting a blow dry as it will make it easier to do.

Overall I will always use essential oils, the mask is going to continue to be in my rota of masks throughout the year and the shampoo was nice but not my favourite shampoo that I have ever tried.

For ladies with curly or thick hair I defiantly recommend the above.
