Not everyone wants to start the day with a hearty serve of runny eggs, bacon, chips and beans.

About Me
- Shelagh Ryan
- 13 Charlotte Place, London W1T1SN, United Kingdom
- This is a story about a little girl, in stature rather than age, who traveled all the way to London from Melbourne Australia to open a cafĂ©. Task: convince the Brits that there are better ways to start the day than with their most significant export, "the Full English"; Experience in running a cafe: none; Optimism: high. I’ve decided to keep a blog so that I can either press print and sell millions of copies of my amazing success story, or give those who are secretly thinking she'll never pull it off, an opportunity to see why.

Lovely. You really took me there! Where shall we go for dinner?
Mmmm lets go somewhere outdoors that serves icy cold cerveza, calamares and patatas bravas.
Wonderful city, wonderful photos! I was transported there for a moment and could literally smell the coffee.
Love the work.
Sometimes words cannot do justice.
Brings back memories from my visit.
Mmmmm...beautiful pics. Want to go there right now!
