Review #79 Bibigo, Islington
Bibigo makes for a very civilised evening out that won't break the bank.
Francis West at Megan Piper
Francis West's thrilling paintings at Megan Piper are well worth the trip.
James Capper at Vigo
In anticipation of the RA's colossal Abstract Expressionism down the road I'd recommend getting along to Vigo to see work which seems to have direct inspiration from some of those artists in its energy and its stripped down rawness.
The Roundabout
An excellent revival of a neglected JB Priestley play leads to thoughts of another possible JBP revival.
Review #77 Spring, Somerset House
In the very bowels of Somerset House it's Spring all year round. Possibly the prettiest room in London with food to match.
Review #78 The India Club, Aldwych
Formica tables, functional flatware and a paper napkin slimmer than graphene are the way the IC rolls. You're not in Dishoom now, this is the real thing. Or at least a mid-twentieth century Anglo-Indian reality.
Review #76 Phô, Fitzrovia
Standard Vietnamese fare on a busy Friday evening in the West End.

History and coiffage under one roof in St. James's
Review #72 Q&T Vietnamese Kitchen, Stroud Green Road
At around fifteen quid a head and with friendly service it's no wonder that the room was full throughout our stay. Recommended.

Review #75 The Botany Bay, Margate
Into the top ten of the worst dinners I've ever had. I wanted to be nice but I have to tell it like it is.
