New favourite...


During my last week in the Brighton area I have found a new favourite cafe in Hove next to Starbucks - i gigi! It's a very nice shabby-chic country kitchen style to this cafe which is on the second floor (only a few steps).
This is an absolutely lovely place for a coffee and homemade cakes - even gluten free ones. I've been here a couple of times this last week, and both times they've had something I can eat. The first time I had a wonderful orange cake and the second time I could choose between three different cakes, but decided to take one with lemon and poppy seed.
The staff is all very nice and friendly and just ask what's gluten free today, and they'll tell you!
Next time I'm in the Brighton area I will most definitely visit again!


Why don't you check it out?

Crêperie Angélie

On Saturday when I was in town I decided to go to this nice little crêperie that I've passed so many times. They have a big sign outside the shop where it says "gluten free" so I thought I really have to check it out then - for your sake ;)
When I got in I saw that it's really tiny, only a couple of tables so best for a take away, which was perfect for me. Oh, but then I started to read the menu and I tell you: I could eat everything! So many yummy combinations... After 10 minutes or so :P I finally decided to treat myself with a milk chocolate and banana one. And I was not disappointed. After five minutes I was on my way out in the sunshine with my crêpe and a can of coke (only £3.50 for the whole thing!) and I couldn't even contain myself - I had to try a bite before taking a picture... yum yum yum! I'll definitely go back there!
