Cream in Shoreditch – This is London Coolness
London has the coolest coffee shops – hands down. Conceived, designed and built by Magnus Reid, the CREAM space is true to the industrial nature of the building, whilst creating an open and welcoming environment through the layout of simple, natural furnishing and fittings. This combination is reflected in the choice of materials – indoor plants surrounding the space soften the concrete counter & floors, the steel structured chairs paired with handwoven seats, and the custom made cement lampshades diffuse soft lighting.

The WalkCar is the Thing – Forget the Hooverboard
Forget the bloody hooverboard courtesy of Lexus. A Japanese engineer has developed a portable transporter small enough to be carried in a backpack that he says is the world’s first ‘car in a bag’.
Twenty-six-year-old Kuniako Saito and his team at Cocoa Motors recently unveiled the lithium battery-powered “WalkCar” transporter, which is the size of a laptop and resembles a skateboard more than a car.
It reaches top speeds of 10 kilometers per hour (6.2 miles per hour), for distances of up to 12 kilometers (7.4 miles) after three hours of charging.
Its developer says it’s also extremely simple to ride. Once the rider stands on it the WalkCar starts automatically, while simply stepping off stops the vehicle. To change direction, the user just shifts their weight. Go to Kickstarter if you want a piece of this:

A Hamburger That Thinks He’s a Hot Dog – Freddar Dog
The UK hamburger chain Byron Burger has a new thing: The Freddar Dawg, is a hamburger that thinks it’s a hot dog – a 6oz hamburger in a hot dog roll. Along with streaky bacon, pickles and onion, it stars one very special ingredient you won’t find anywhere else – Freddar cheese, our head chef Fred’s take on American cheese. Freddar has all the melting goodness of classic American cheese, but with a serious flavour punch thanks to Fred’s unique blend of Grana Padano, mature Cheddar and Red Leicester. Grana Padano, mature Cheddar and Red Leicester. Pretty funny and pretty delicious
