Excellent nibble snack cart! On your way to the tube before the beginning of very long day take a…read morehandful and you'll be sorted. You'll end up taking more than that, simply because they have so many different kinds of nuts and dried fruit covered in all kinds of chocolate (dark, plain, white) or yoghurt. Jamaican cashews, honey-dipped, mexican, salted, unsalted...ask the stall workers for a taste and they're usually really nice about it. Two of my favourites are the plantains (not coated in a anything but a very thin sweet layer) and the yoghurt coated cranberries (surprisingly delicious), almost all choices are £1.98 per 100g and get your loyalty card because you will need it!

Even though most of what they offer is chocolately, sugary goodness, I always feel healthier by…read moregetting the odd snack from Cranberry, as opposed to the WH Smith nearby. I recently stocked up on plain chocolate covered raisins and brazil nuts (with a little collection of honey coated almonds and dried cherries) and headed for the cinema. You look around you as you wander past the snack bar with all of the popcorn and ice cream and sweets and think, "I am so much healthier than them" -- but you're totally not. :)

If you like nuts you will adore The Nutcase. If you like shop names that have a terribly cheesy pun…read moreyou will love The Nutcase. If you're not fussed on either then you might not like The Nutcase. They have an amazing selection of nuts. Roasted, toasted, salted, sweet, chilliyou get the gist. But even if you do get the gist, you can't really appreciate how wonderful the selection of nuts truly is until you go there. I even enjoy just walking past and enjoying the nutty waft that emits from the shop. The prices are fairly reasonable and you choose whatever and how much you like. The staff can be a little strange sometimes, but in a charming and intriguing way. They additionally do a good line in Arabic coffees and sweets which make great gifts.

My friend, who's a bit of a nutter, suggested this shop. Since I'm a little bit of a nutter too, I…read morethought I'd come here to try it out. I have never seen so many varieties of nuts under one roof: baskets and boxes filled with salted nuts, toffee nuts, coffee nuts, chilli nuts, roasted nuts, chocolate nuts. You want some Iranian pistachios? You got it. You want honey almonds? There's a variety. I was surprised to learn that this shop is not just a one-trick pony. They have a wonderful and unusual selection of coffees, especially Arabic/North African, which they'll grind for you whilst you're waiting. I love this shop!

It's an eccentric mix of shops and stalls, but everyone is quite friendly and they're all very happy for your business. Easy to navigate, the market has two parallel aisles that run from one end to the other. But if you're too tired or you already bought a ton of stuff, you'd be excused if you only do one aisle. Conveniently located, the market runs next to the Hammersmith Underground line, between Goldhawk Road and Shepherd's Bush Market stations. You can't miss it.

The Shepherd's Bush Market came in very handy when I worked as a runner at the BBC years ago. This…read moremarket really has it all from cheap food and housewares to gorgeous fabrics. In fact, the fabrics here are brilliant. I was requested to look for silk polka dot fabric once and you know what, it was all here. The prices are dirt cheap and sometimes you can haggle a wee deal. I always find markets a little disorientating and this one especially but if you have time to wander, do give this a look because you can pick up great deals on food and other bits for the house - brilliant.

I am not a big fans of milk shake becoz it make me feel guilty everytime I had one. is fattening!!…read moreTherefore everytime when I walk pass Sblended at Westfield I have never have the urge to get one. Today my friend wanted to buy a milkshake for her hubby to thanks him for fetching us to shopping...so it gave me a good reason to try out Sblended milk shake. I got attracted to those jars of candies and chocolates as soon as we walk close to the store. They make me curious how these sweet (m&m, chruncy, etc) taste like with milkshake. We ordered two Ferrero rocher Milk shake and one Oreo milk shake. I have to say the assistant is not attentive to the customer. They were busy chatting with their friend or staff. We have to repeat at least three times to get our order right. Milk shake wise....I can taste the hazelnut bits and chocolate from the ferrero rocher chocolate which is what I like but I find the milk shake a bit too watering for me. I expect the milk shake to be thicker like the milk shake at GBK. I read another yelp review for their soho shop.........which I didnt know that you can actually "customised with sauces and 'tops and bottoms' like popping candy, nuts and mini marshmallows" Will I give Sblended another try again......hmmm ....maybe yes....but maybe not this shop =P

Amazing how much they manage to squeeze into a relatively small shop without making the place look cluttered. A slightly less useful branch recently opened down the road in Holland Park Avenue, concentrating on appliances, fancy kitchen accessories and gifts - but the original is still the best.
