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.
Francis West at Megan Piper
Francis West's thrilling paintings at Megan Piper are well worth the trip.
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.
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.
Review #73 Le Fumoir, Paris
'Freshly made cocktails fizzy sour and poured over a colossal goblet full of ice. Already Le Fumoir had become one of my favourite places on earth.'
Another hit in Paris!
Review #71 Bi Won, Bloomsbury
Good value Korean around the corner from the BM ... I also recommend their Sunken Cities exhibition.
