In 2012 I began a blog about going out in London, called London Girl About Town; this organically migrated over to Instagram but I have kept LondonGAT as my Instagram name. I started writing for Chatting Food in 2019 then gave up my day job in the summer of 2021 to write full-time. I started with London Cheapo as a freelance writer at the end of that year and wrote my first piece for Palate Magazine the following spring. I am launching a Substack about eating out in London called EAT THIS NOW! in the next few months - watch this space! I am a keen home cook and love to feed people.

Special subjects

The London food and drinks scene, in all forms: industry professionals, restaurants, bars, pop-ups, collabs, residencies, supper clubs, street food.
