Ode to the lychee

My new favourite fruit is the lovely lychee. I used to hate them when I was little, but my adult tastebuds grew fond of the tasty, delicate, perfumed sweetness.

I took my boy out for a birthday lunch at Leven's in Tollcross. Leven's is a Thai fusion eatery - you'd recognise the funky lighting if you've ever passed it.

The food was seriously yummy, and these lychee smoothies were gorgeous! Almost makes a girl forget it's grey and wet outside.
