M&M World London: Emmm & Errmmm?? At Leicester Square

By theskinnybib on June 14, 2011

I spent a good part of my evening at Hampstead Theatre, another munching Sherwarma at Beirut Express but my ideal outing concluded in a psychedelic vision of militant consumerism at Leicester Square… in the form of M&M World London.

Choco-Dilemma: Let the Tasting Commence

By theskinnybib on October 2, 2010

I’m sitting in an enclosed, brightly-lit room facing my four boxes of Belgian chocolate I bought from Bruges. I am not quite sure where to start, which box, and on top of that, I’m having the ultimate doubt, “Will I have to taste all those chocolates?” THAT–eating all the chocolates–would be a sacrilege to my …
