COYA City Review. Peruvian Restaurant in the City of London.

heylollyJanuary 18, 2026December 30, 2025

A Friday night review of COYA City, covering the evening bottomless brunch and three-course dinner. Expect high energy, generous pours and a lively atmosphere with food that shows promise but leans more towards style than substance. A fun night out, as long as you know what you’re booking.

20 exclusive low-carb recipes, created especially for this digital download and not currently published anywhere else or on the Hey Lolly blog.

For the days when you want food to feel a little lighter, but still generous. Still beautiful. Still worth sitting down for.

Think golden halloumi, harissa salmon, chilli garlic prawns, garlic butter scallops, loaded bowls, brunch eggs, lemon, herbs, creamy yoghurt, crisp vegetables and sauces you’ll want to keep close 🍋

Not strict keto.
Not diet food.
Not joylessly stripped back.

Just fresh, flavour-led recipes for lighter, lovelier meals, with lots of pleasure left in!

Available now via the link in my bio 🫒

Scallops are high-maintenance only if you let them Scallops are high-maintenance only if you let them be. Buy them properly, get the pan hot, add more butter than feels sensible and don’t wander off! 

They want colour, and lots of attention.

A soft cauliflower purée underneath, lemon over the top, scattering of fresh herbs, and suddenly dinner feels like you should be in a restaurant!

A stack made in lemon heaven 🍋🫐 Cloud-soft lemon A stack made in lemon heaven 🍋🫐

Cloud-soft lemon ricotta pancakes with glossy blueberry compote, fresh lemon zest and a little Sunday morning ceremony.

The ricotta keeps them soft, the whipped egg whites give them lift, and the blueberry compote does the dramatic spilling-down-the-stack bit beautifully.

Recipe is now on the site — link in bio.

🌮 Mexican Breakfast Tacos 🌮 Eggs. Avocado. Salsa. 🌮 Mexican Breakfast Tacos 🌮

Eggs. Avocado. Salsa. Lime. Coffee somewhere nearby. When I tell you this is what weekend brunch is all about… believe me, my friend.

Some recipes have a season. These definitely do not.

I made these last year, fully expecting them to have their moment and fade away. Instead they’ve become one of those recipes I return to again and again - and everyone seems to demolish without hesitation 

Still making them. Still ordering extra limes. 🍋‍🟩
