I think I have found my perfect job. I am working remotely at the London office of a magazine publisher based in Worcester. I work alone in an office, surrounded by four white walls, with only a computer and a telephone for company. The only people I talk to are an editor at the other end of the phone, the receptionist (morning & evening greetings only) and the odd person who walks in by mistake. But, right opposite the office is this…

And this…

And this…

The most delicious laksa I’ve ever had with bits of fresh, soft tofu wrapped in a crispy shell, succulent prawns, chicken, noodles, beansprouts in a spicy hot curry coconut soup! With a little bit of shredded red onion on the side, and a squeeze of lime. Just sublime!

And the condiments are not your usual soy and chilli sauces – they are Thai hot chilli sauce, Indonesian sweet soy sauce Ketjap Manis and Thai fish sauce!

This is…

Which serves food from all these places…

You can even get kimchi for 95p. And stir-fried garlic morning glory (water spinach) for £4.95, Pho, nyonga chicken & lime curry…you can get curry from Thailand, Vietnam, Phillipines, Japan, Singapore. Korean chapchae (fried noodles), Japanese udon, Pad Thai, Vietnamese Pho Xao Bo. Gado Gado, gyoza, tempura… You can drink fresh lime soda or a Singapore Sling, and have sticky rice desserts with a Vietnamese coffee.

What more could a girl want from a job?! Company? A lunch date would be nice – but only because I can try more dishes! (Beverley, are you on the train yet? I’m in Rathbone Place.)
