{tasty morsels}

On Sunday I had brunch with my friend Suzy at Sketch's Parlour. Truly an experience!
Sketch is well known for its more famous Gallery restaurant (restaurant and art gallery in one), dressed in fluffy pink like some sort of dessert from the '60s, designed by India Mahdavi (read more here):

The Parlour, however, is a stark contrast to this pink cotton candy. It evokes a gentleman's club/library, but equally with some quirky features, combining old with new, antique with modern. The Parlour is a great place to come for a relaxing brunch.

{fantastic mix of old & new}

 We sat drinking cappuccinos out of mismatched tea cups in comfy chairs around a low table with a brass cover.

 The portions were not large, but the food was good--I had '9 conduit street' (the address of sketch)

The menu is equally cute, dressed with various types of hats...

{love that menu!}

I'll certainly come back, and really want to try The Gallery, or their other restaurants...

Oh, and the bathroom is an experience not to be missed. It's too hard to describe, so you'll just have to discover it yourself!
