My Blog has Moved

I've been planning for awhile to move my blog to a more professional looking site such as typepad.com or wordpress.com and now I've finally done it. I know that it is a pain to bookmark a new URL or start a new RSS feed but I hope the new site will provide an improved experience for my readership. Everything from this blog has been imported to the new site so all posts, comments, tags, etc. will still be there.

Apologies but please setup your bookmarks and RSS feeds for:

http://teavu.typepad.com/

See you on the new site!

Credit Crunch

I know the banking industry and the economy as a whole has been crumbling around me but in general my job and financial position are fairly secure. Therefore, I have yet to feel the effects of the recession/depression and most of the establishments that I frequent are still busy and buzzing with customers.

However, Monday the 16th of March marks the opening of this year's London Restaurant Week. From what I can gather, my friends and I have been spending sometime over the last couple of days perusing the restaurant list and trying to book tables. So now the credit crunch has finally hit home as my foodie friends and I have to take advantage of these promotions to dine at Michelin-star restaurants.

Yes rough life, I know.
