The Diner has headed West and come over all Southern. The cosy new branch at Gloucester Road (conveniently just across the road from the tube) has the same favourites as the other branches, but… Continue reading
Tucked away behind the hustle of Tottenham Court Road lies not one, not two, but three gems. Gail’s Bakery and Gail’s Kitchen with Myhotel Bloomsbury appropriately sandwiched between the two. Gail’s Kitchen – a recent… Continue reading
A rare outing to a region of London that doesn’t begin with ‘S’ bought us to Rita’s Bar & Dining in Dalston. Described on their site as a ‘travelling food and drink collaboration between… Continue reading
You’ve heard the phase ‘Christmas has come early’. For us it was Easter that came early… We were invited back to Cinnamon Soho to sample Vivek Singh’s Easter egg-inspired menu and inspired it was too. (Read… Continue reading
When we first reserved a table at MASH we had visions of a whole section on the menu specialising in mashed spud. Wrong! MASH actually stands for Modern American Steak House, although steakhouse is… Continue reading
Cinnamon Soho was not what we expected. I guess after visiting sister restaurant Cinnamon Kitchen near Liverpool Street, we thought the latest offering from the group would be quite glitzy and special. It… Continue reading
The Electric Diner has got to be in our top three places we’ve eaten this year. Although not in our usual stomping ground, it felt quite a trek to get to Notting Hill,… Continue reading
We first discovered Vapiano on one of our visits to Sweden, when our budget was low and we couldn’t afford to spend a fortune on a meal, which is pretty unavoidable in Stockholm.… Continue reading
Hackney is not a place we venture to often, but since discovering Dukes Brew & Que, that may change that. In fact, we have already returned once. A bookable, yes, you heard us… Continue reading
Not content with burgers and fried chicken, the latest (slightly healthier) craze to sweep across london is ramen. Jumping on the band wagon is YO! Sushi with a #ramenwins campaign, even backed by… Continue reading
It seems to us that the trend of street food is going nowhere fast. Even Comptoir Libanais is joining in with some typical Middle Eastern street food dishes on their menu. Their Facebook… Continue reading
To be honest, when I heard Dishoom were opening a new restaurant in Shoreditch I wasn’t as excited as I hoped to be. Basically Shoreditch is not my kind of place, a bit… Continue reading
Only in Surrey would you find a pub owned by an ex-formula one driver. The William Bray in Shere, formerly the Prince of Wales is run by Julian Bailey, and he’s bought his… Continue reading
If we were to tell you that we had a great night out at the Hippodrome, you’d probably think we were a little crazy and/or drunk! To be honest if this review was… Continue reading
Hidden in the depths of Camden’s Stables Market is Battersea Pie. A pie and mash stall that we first discovered in our nearby Bluewater. Sadly that site is no longer. Now Camden’s not… Continue reading
Quickly read through these questions… 1) Do you want to stay in a relaxed atmosphere where you feel you are visiting friends rather than just staying in a guest house? 2) Have you… Continue reading
This week I had one of the best dining experiences for a long time, possibly of my life. Suffolk farm Dingley Dell provided the ultimate pork fest with a bunch of talented guest… Continue reading
This isn’t our usual style of review… It’s not just Saff and I or even just us and the kids, it was a group of seventeen* having a little get together in the… Continue reading
We are so very jealous of the residents of Hammersmith, their new neighbourhood pub is one that we could only dream of. The Thatched House near Ravenscourt Park tube has recently opened under the… Continue reading
If the queue outside MEATLiquor seems a little shorter at the moment then that might be due to a new player in town… The Icelandic King of burgers. Literally around the corner, Tommi’s… Continue reading
