🍱Food and drink: Adam went to Red Fish on Trafalgar Street:
I had a Turkish tea that was very nice, it was very strong, and I also had, they have these specific sort of Turkish pastry, it's really nice. It's got all the pictures everywhere which are very sweet, drawn by customers, it's just very cosy and pleasant.
☕️Coffee: Some members of Team Seagull also went to Blend & Brew on Trafalgar Street:
The only place where you can blend into a rainforest. Plug sockets, upside down. Cosy! What is there to say? I feel like I say that every time you ask me. A very soothing ambient drone. And they just swapped to jazz, but we did have ambient music and that was quite nice, it did feel like I was listening to Selected Ambient Works 85-92. The thing about the coffee is that it was just coffee, which is a good thing. The beautiful thing about a lot of these coffee shops around North Laine is the coffee is just coffee. You know what you're going to get, especially if you're like us and you get the same thing everywhere you go. The sweet vanilla was very sweet.
