style roulette is just a necessity: document everyday life of two girls living in the opposite sides of the world but with same tastes and style attitudes.
write this blog as a roulette: never expect what to get everyday, there will be different places, different styles, different people.

In the few weeks between its opening during exam period and our last days in Glasgow, this became one of our favorite spots in the city. Serena says this is exactly what the west end was missing- had we stayed through the summer i'm sure we'd have spent every afternoon sitting outside on vinicombe street in lawn chairs, people watching with superfood salads and student-friendly 3₤ strawberry mojitos. Or huddling indoors around a cocktail-filled gramophone (!!) during yet another rainstorm. The next Glasgow winter might be much more bearable with this place around the corner...

Here are some photos from the (very secretive) grand opening in May. It was BYOB and by the time we got there it was kind of like a giant flatparty, only everyone was better dressed and there was free food.



















We've been back oodles of times since...the style and presentation here are stunning. I'm sorry...a ping pong table? a video game room? a hidden back corner upstairs with beanbags? All your dreams come true here- but of course I love the 'food without a face' menu the most.





















Anyway, off to San Francisco in a few hours! I've only been there once during a road trip up the West Coast and I've been dying to go back. Oh and if anyone has suggestions for restaurants or places to see, let me know!
LOVE
