Resto 15 Larwood & Voce, Trent Bridge
No pace from L&V and a gristle burger to boot.
Resto 14 Haku Kitchin, Kentish Town
This simple meal was just what I needed after a bacchanalian weekend. Recommended.
Resto 13, L’Osteria, Frankfurt
Our final day in Frankfurt and we were looking for somewhere near the station. But not too near, since on arriving two days previously we'd seen a feller have his head caved in with a beer bottle before receiving a floor-based kicking from two fellow drunks/drug addicts.

Resto 11 Ristorante Gallo Nero, Frankfurt
In Frankfurt for the weekend we were ravenous after leaving the train and in no mood to wander far to find some food so the Black Chicken was chosen purely for its proximity to the hotel. Set off Frankfurt’s main shopping street it was a good spot to dine on the terrace and we joined…

And thanks to the waiter who then also brought us a bonus Limoncello each, which we wolfed down before going on the hunt for more random ancestor-related properties (them) and a comfortable bench in the V&A to prepare for staying awake in the cinema (me).
Resto 8 Umut 2000, Harringay
At 25 quid a head including service (which was excellent) Umut is the best value I've had on Green Lanes recently and well worth considering for a future post-snooker scoffage.
Resto 7 Nep Nep, Lisson Grove
Another weekend another random suburb of London.
Resto 6 East West Pizza, K Town
The service was charm itself and the room just as functional as you'd want from a pit stop pizzeria. Prices showed that K Town has slid nearer to Primrose Hill than it used to be so we retired to the Park Tavern for post-food relaxation and proper north London prices.
Resto 5 Lima, Fitzrovia
For main a pancetta lump (it was more elegantly described on the menu) was a thing of wonder - three sticky boulders of pig in a fiercely hot sauce with plenty of veg alongside.
