2011 has been a wonderful year that has seen hundreds of new discoveries – from hidden gems on my doorstep in east London to experiencing the Middle East and attending the Toronto International Film Festival for the first time.
Thank you for reading and supporting and for the countless new friendships through blogging. I hope some of the stories on Chérie City in 2011 have inspired travels or led you to some good dinners!
Here are some favourite moments from the 2011…
