If
If
you hadn’t already noticed, we’ve got a bit of a thing for
anonymous food blogger Clerkenwell Boy. He has made a name for himself
documenting London’s food scene in an inscrutable square frame, and
has 143k followers on Instagram (and counting). Originally from
Australia, he is no stranger to travel and has already tantalised
us with pictures from trips to Sydney,
Hong Kong and
Florence (to name a few). In order to ensure our appetites are
regularly satiated, we’ve teamed up for a monthly What I Ate
column, which pretty much does what it says on the tin. If it’s
worth eating, it’s here.
