Review #84 De Twee Grieken, Amsterdam

Fancier places are available in Prinsenstraat but DTG is good if you're starving hungry.

Review #83 Little Portland Café, Fitzrovia

Little Portland Café works. Why go to a chain to be served in a listless manner by someone who was trained (and instructed) to Smile Brightly and squeeze extras out of you?

Review #82, The Shoeburyness Hotel

Fish & Chips in Shoeburyness with a splash of The Cure as an intro.

Review #81 Bombay Spice, Marylebone

Bombay Spice in Marylebone delivers underwhelming food in a repetitive sound-world. Philip Glass inevitably comes to mind.

Review #80 Aurora, Soho

In a shabbed room I ate creatures of the deep. And drank warm wine.

Review #79 Bibigo, Islington

Bibigo makes for a very civilised evening out that won't break the bank.

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.
