picture a hot summer day. I’m riding my bike through south kensington, and spot lovely watermelons through a window. braaaakes.

cosily sat outside, in the shadow, I sip through my lemonade before biting into a lovely tomato and mozzarella just-toasted sandwich. maybe it wasn’t that good, but I keep fond memories of the place. so charming.

and the watermelon. just perfect.

whenever I crave something sweet, I take a conveniently-short walk to the notting hill favourite cupcakery: hummingbird bakery.

with top-notch ingredients, their cupcakes are the best in London. the sponges are soft and moist. and the frostings perfectly creamy.

I love the red velvet and simple vanilla cupcakes. but make sure you get a bite of the whoopie pies and a slice of cheesecake too.

my favourite branch is in soho. it has such a big display with hundreds of cupcakes. and the south kensington shop has some tables to sit at to enjoy your treats with a delicious latte or a creamy hot chocolate.

a must.
