Good food, poor choices. I have to say that eating tête de veau isn't something I'll do again in a hurry. The meaty bits were ok but the gluey bits were ... gluey.
Good French food does the trick when it's cold and fluey but mebbe they could go easy on the speakers.
The food was good and there was plenty of it, thus satisfying both of my requirements for the evening. Cheerful, prompt service dispelled the slightly condescending chaos of Koh Thai from the memory. Fah easily outclasses Koh in all areas of the game in this neck of the woods.
Quality bistrot food makes the Victoria Stakes a winner in N8.
Good pizza, proper Neapolitan fried stuff and a bit of a rant about paying for stuff in the National Gallery that you can usually see for free.
Thanks to the encouragement and energy of the editorial team of Bruce Murray, Richard Parry and Jonty Winch Cricket and Society in South Africa, 1910-1971 is now in print as part of Palgrave's series of studies in sport and politics. The largest guffaw of the BSSH's* recent conference came when one of the delegates said that sport and politics shouldn't mix. Our book is a c. 70,000 word refutation of that statement.
Kayal is a class act in north Lem. While lacking the crazed charm of King Baba it more than makes up for it with good food and quality service.
While prices at Here (I know, right) are a little too steep to make it a regular outing it is a place I can heartily recommend to ethically conscious north London foodies (I believe there are a few around).
A welcome addition to the local resto scene in an underserved corner of north London, Goods Office delivers handsomely on the food front.
