Our Romanian adventure is nearly coming to an end...and we will soon be home to our routines...but here are some photos that we have managed to take...not many because this year we have focused on making the most of our time with family rather than taking photos every minute worthy of social media....🥰

Beautiful mountain views, picturesque landscapes, familiar places, long-awaited reunions, plenty of family time, delicious food, homemade cakes, sarmale, Greek gyros, lots of laughter, barking dogs in the quietness of the night and, most importantly, a little bit of rest (and quite a lot of sleep when we've managed it! 😂). We were all tolerating our individual snoring episodes 😂

These past few days have been about slowing down, reconnecting with family, making memories and enjoying the simple things that sometimes get lost in the busyness of everyday life.

Being here has given me the chance to switch off from work for a little while. Well… almost! 😂

I've tried not to think about the kitchen, the baking, the menus, the endless lists and all the little jobs waiting for me back home. But one thing I haven't forgotten is YOU, our lovely customers.

The Little Kitchen might have been having a little breather, but our customers are never forgotten. We appreciate every single one of you, and we're already looking forward to being back, getting the coffee machine going, filling the counters with goodies and welcoming you through our doors again and telling you all about the stuff we did here in Romania.

For now, we're soaking up these last precious moments with family, because sometimes the most important thing on the menu is simply time together.

Romania, you've been good to us. ❤️🇷🇴
See you very soon, lovely people!
Love from Oana & the TLK team ☕❤️

IT’S OUR LAST DAY BEFORE A LITTLE ROMANIAN ADVENTURE!

Well, folks, the time has come! Today is your LAST CHANCE to get your Little Kitchen fix before we head off on our Romanian adventure!

The suitcases are (almost ) packed, the cakes are baked, and we're ready for a little change of scenery, some family time, and hopefully a bit of sunshine!

But before we swap Wormgate for Romania, there's still time to pop in for your favourite coffee, a delicious homemade treat, or one last taste of our October Hot Dessert Menu!

⚠️ IMPORTANT: WE WILL STOP SERVING FOOD AT 1PM TODAY! ⚠️

So please don't leave it too late if you're hoping to grab something delicious!

It's been a busy few weeks at TLK, and I'm so grateful for every single one of you who has popped through our doors, supported our little independent café, enjoyed our creations, and made all those long kitchen hours worthwhile.

Now, I'm off to recharge my batteries, explore my Romanian roots, and hopefully bring back a little inspiration (and some delicious Romanian food ideas ) to share with you all!

And when we return? THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVE MENU IS COMING!
Thank you for being part of our little TLK family. Come and see us today before we go!
❤️ The Little Kitchen, Wormgate ❤️
☕ Coffee first. Romania next. Christmas menu loading... 🎄

THE MUFFINS ARE IN THE OVEN, THE SUITCASES ARE OUT… AND THE WEATHER IS BEING CHALLENGING!

Well, lovely people of Boston, what a week it's been! And just when we thought we'd had enough to contend with, the grotty weather is rolling in to make life even more interesting!

Please do take care out there, keep cosy, and if you're venturing out, why not pop in and see us at The Little Kitchen on Wormgate for a little warmth, comfort food and a friendly face?

Meanwhile, I'm trying to finish a million jobs before our little Romanian adventure with Ian and Luca. Packing, prepping, sorting the café… and naturally, because apparently I don't know when to stop, I've squeezed in another bake!

TODAY: VEGAN BANANA & BLUEBERRY MUFFINS WITH CRUNCHY OAT CRUMBLE!
Homemade, freshly baked, full of fruity goodness and topped with golden, crunchy crumble clusters.

Now, a little reminder: you have just TWO DAYS LEFT to get your hot dessert and savoury fix before we head off!

Then, when we're back, on the 5th of November it's time for our CHRISTMAS FESTIVE MENU to make its grand entrance!

And of course, I promise to share some Romanian culinary delights along the way. There might be delicious discoveries, local treats and a few ideas making their way back into my chef's notebook. Watch this space! I am going to bring back my old recipes notebooks :).

Running a small independent café isn't always easy, especially when the weather decides to throw a spanner in the works. Every customer who walks through our door, every coffee ordered, every cake enjoyed and every kind word really does mean so much to us.

So, if you fancy cheering up a grey day, come and say hello, grab something delicious, and let us put a little warmth into your day.

Right, I'm off to rescue those muffins from the oven before they develop their own weather system!
Much love,
Oana - Jo, Josephine (when I am in trouble 😂)

Well, my lovely lot… the countdown is officially ON!

I'm off to Romania very soon for a little family adventure, which means you've got JUST 2 DAYS LEFT to get your Little Kitchen fix before I go! 😍

And when I return, we'll be getting into the festive spirit because our Christmas Festive Menu is on its way!

Think cosy, comforting, indulgent and delicious… with a little TLK magic sprinkled over everything.

But don't worry, I'm not leaving you without a little foodie adventure!

While I'm away, I promise to share some snippets of Romanian life, traditional dishes, local flavours and culinary inspiration. Who knows? I might even bring back a few ideas to inspire something delicious in our own Little Kitchen!

So, come and see us over the next two days, grab your favourite coffee, treat yourself to something lovely, and get your TLK fix before the festive magic begins!

Two days. One last little fix. Then… CHRISTMAS AT TLK! For 2 whole months!

We still have a few Christmas Afternoon Teas spaces left so get booked in. When they are gone...they are gone.

Thank you, as always, for supporting our little independent café. It means more than you know.

Oana (Jo) & the TLK team ❤️

TODAY'S EPISODE....

Every now and then, a review comes along that reminds us exactly why we open our doors, put on our aprons and give it our all.

Today was one of THOSE days at The Little Kitchen! Absolute carnage in the kitchen, orders flying in, hot food, hot desserts, drinks being made and three pairs of hands working as hard as they possibly could to keep everything moving!

It was busy. Really busy! And while we always want to serve everyone as quickly as possible, sometimes good food takes a little patience. Thank you to everyone who waited, for your understanding and for being so lovely to our little team.

Then, in the middle of it all, this beautiful five-star review landed:
Words like “hidden gem”, “delicious food” and “high quality service” mean more to us than you could ever imagine. And hearing that someone loved our Benedict Melt and Halloumi Open Sandwich so much that they hope to make us their regular breakfast and lunch spot? Well, that's something special!

A huge shout-out to Courtney and Sam, who worked their socks off today, and to every customer who chose to spend part of their day with us.

We're a little independent café tucked away on Wormgate, in the heart of historic Boston. We may not be the biggest, but we put our hearts into what we do, from the food we make to the welcome you receive when you walk through our door.

Days like today remind us that behind every plate, every coffee and every smile, there's a team giving it their all.

Thank you for supporting our little café, for your patience on the busy days, and for taking the time to leave such lovely reviews. Every single one means the world to us.

And if you've not discovered our little hidden gem yet, perhaps it's time you did!

LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS!

Our very own Luca, back when he was a little smaller, proudly showing off The Little Kitchen menu, promoting TLK since birth and occasionally earning his keep.

Honestly, where does the time go? One minute they're little, standing there barely peeking over a menu, and the next they're growing up before your very eyes. You wish you could bottle up those little moments and keep them forever! ❤️

This photo is such a lovely reminder of how much time has passed, how many memories we've made, and how special it is to have our little ones growing up alongside the things we pour our hearts into.

The Little Kitchen has always been about more than food and coffee. It's about family, community, and all those little moments that become the memories we treasure most. ❤️

And this one? This one is definitely a keeper. 🥹

Little Luca, big memories, and a reminder that time really does fly! ❤️

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF THE LITTLE KITCHEN…

Today's episode included a commercial fridge that decided it needed some professional attention.

Thankfully, the fridge engineers are on the case, so fingers crossed my lovely big fridge will be back to doing what it's supposed to do rather than auditioning for The Great British Breakdown!

But wait… there WAS a win today! 🏆

I collected the washing off the line and discovered that the lovely, warm breeze had done such a good job that I DON'T NEED TO IRON IT! 🙌

Honestly, i was overjoyed! Half the washing folded, Luca's school shirts on hangers, and the ironing board has been spared another shift!

So today's score:
🧊 Fridge drama: SORTED....big shout to East Kirby Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Ltd....my baby is purring!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Headache: unwelcome guest.
British weather: employee of the month.
Ironing: CANCELLED!

Some days you conquer the world. Other days, you celebrate a breeze that saves you from ironing school shirts. And frankly, I'll take today's little victory! ❤️

13 more sleeps until we go away! 😁 dear God, please no more dramas 🙏🙏🙏

Tell me I'm not the only one who gets ridiculously excited when the washing doesn't need ironing?!
