Smallman1 Sounds classy!

“Really lovely staff. And a very nice, proper macaroni cheese with exceptional garlic bread”

Went to a Thai spot called Farmhouse Kitchen the other day. Bone-in Short Rib was tremendous.

But places have been struggling around here. Bad. The spot I’m a partner at is doing about 25% of its former business. And we’re lucky around here given the weather is pretty warm through November (unlucky with these god damn wildfires, ’though - my chest is like I have Covid all over again).

    seanc80 Ed scrolls through the menu and is baffled that there’s no side order menu meaning no spring onion mash.

      If I remember right it’s a panaang curry thing. Place wasn’t inexpensive but one gets their money’s worth. Had some absolute mega-babes who worked there, too.

        Always best to check for an adams apple @ Thai gaffs

        In London for the weekend and had a lunch at Amelia’s crafted pasta at St Katherine’s dock.

        The Pappardelle bechemal Bolognese was probably the best I ever tasted. Very nice. Didn’t scrimp at all on the high quality beef in the ragu. Nice view across the dock/boars

          Going to put my head above the parapet and say I thought my dinner at Cecconi’s in the West End last week was magnificent. The truffle pasta is probably the best I’ve had in London.

            Jules72 Over-priced, old-school Italian nonsense. My heart sinks on the rare occasion a client wants to go there.

              Along_the_Wire haha knew you wouldn’t like it… it is ridiculously expensive no doubt… but I haven’t had an Italian meal here that good in a long time

              Bocca Di Lupo.

              Grant’s only good recommendation!

              I can also vouch for Boca di Lupo. Smokestak in Shoreditch is a decent carnivorous visit. Did Gordon Ramsay Royal Hospital Road on a £400 voucher- went for wine pairings for 2 people and ended up paying the different on an £850 bill- Ouch! Nothing special IMO

              My favourite Smallman moment of restaurant idiocy was where he said Japanese is Asia’s elite cuisine.

              Total fucking clownshoe whose posts should be totally disregarded.

                It’s the amount of times he’s eating Italian and pizza with no cheese that always gets me.
