We were celebrating my Wife's birthday yesterday with a trip up to London and a day of nice food, wine and shopping. For lunch we headed East to Hackney Wick and the excellent Cornerstone (which had gained a Michelin star since we last visited back in 2018) As can be seen above, the pickled oysters looked stunning and (predictably) tasted pretty good too! We had the tasting menu which was eight different dishes with a loosely fishy theme, delicious, and not a bad one among them. All washed down with a decent Chablis from Julien Brocard. Afterwards we zipped over to the Westfield shopping centre nearby (Stratford) and picked up a new leather jacket which was my main birthday gift, it all seemed to go down well which is always a relief and we made it home by about 7:30pm for bites and a movie, a thoroughly nice day!
