Same-Same But Different

Back in Thailand, the idiom "same same but different" is sometimes used when someone tries to sell something that wasn't what the customer originally wanted. Or, depending on the situation, when they just want to end an annoying conversion...?

But today isn't about that.

A nice red local cafe in Bath (United Kingdom) attracted me. It seems pretty small from the outside, but it's actually quite spacious, smart use of large glass windows and mirrors inside the cafe.

Same-Same But Different
7a Prince's Buildings, Barlett Street,

... is an independent cafe with character. Proven by being the winner of ‘BEST UP-AND-COMING CHEF’ by BATH GOOD FOOD AWARDS 2012. I've heard from many friends of mine that this place serves one of the best brunch in Bath. 

On a hungry morning I decided to try this little eatery. For the first time I saw a different eggs benedict menu to the usual (Eggs Florentine, Eggs Royale, Eggs Benedict), I ordered Eggs Picante. 


Eggs Picante : Poached Egg, Bacon, Chorizo, Melted Cheese, Tabasco

It was incredibly nice and flavorful. Salty, tangy and Spicy. Great if you want something to wake you up for the day. 





I don't know why this sentence reminds me of friends... they might give me same feeling of happiness, trust and warmth, but they're all very unique and different. Come to think of it, they have different ways of treating me as well. : )

One fine day my friends and I went to this lovely Petersham Nurseries Cafe. You might be wondering why eat at a nursery? Won't there be many kids? Well, Petersham is a nice green nursery for flowers and plants.

Being part of the Slow Food movement, Petersham Nurseries Cafe serves organic locally produced meals. Food here are fresh and you can really taste each elements on the plate.

It was an afternoon I will never forget...
Like Alice in Wonderland.
It was surreal...

As they say, "Pictures are worth a thousand words", so let the photos do the talking, shall we?
