Mr and Mrs Smith blog — carnal pleasures taken seriously

The good people at the Mr and Mrs Smith travel books have started up a blog. Mr and Mrs Smith guides review romantic boutique hotels around the world — great places to go away for a dirty weekend (and check in as Mr and Mrs Smith, natch). I've reviewed a couple hotels for them in the past — not as a paid gig, just because it was so much fun — and I've since become an avid fan of the guides, both for planning real trips and for daydreaming about places I might go someday. The blog is a great source of sybaritic pleasure taken very seriously indeed.


As promised, we've been quizzing top New York Times coffee blogger Oliver Schwaner-Albright about all things brown and beautiful (that doesn't sound quite right, but you get the gist of what I'm trying to say!), as part of our quest to track down the Best coffee in London.

Tam – who is the real-life Mrs Smith, in case you hadn't already worked that out – caught up with him over the weekend. So here it is: everything you ever wanted to know about coffee but were afraid to ask*

*NB possibly not completely true: please don't come crying to us if your coffee question is not answered here. We have tried to cover all bases but, sheesh, we're only human…
