• Summerhouse

    July 16 in England ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    My final destination for the day was Summerhouse, a beautiful restaurant sitting right on the edge of the canal in Little Venice.

    I couldn't have asked for a better table.

    Right by the window.

    Outside, swans and ducks drifted quietly past while the last golden light reflected off the water. It honestly felt like sitting inside a picture book.

    To accompany the view, I ordered a glass of South African rosé, followed by a wonderfully refreshing gazpacho.

    For the main course, I chose a beautifully cooked hake fillet served on a red curry velouté with bok choy, tomatoes and baby potatoes.

    To finish, an espresso.

    Simple.

    Elegant.

    Perfect.

    Eventually, I made the walk back to the hotel, completely exhausted—but in the best possible way.

    When I checked my phone, it told me I'd walked 18 kilometres today.

    No wonder I fell straight into bed.

    And the best part?

    Tomorrow, London still has more adventures waiting.
