A list of restaurants

Smallman1 Nostalgia is en vogue lads, get with the program!

Were you even alive in 1974 to have nostalgia for it?…

Smallman’s head had been delivered in 1974 and the parts below his neck were finally born in 1981.

“Nostalgia is so en vogue right now chaps. Let’s sit in wooden huts and eat roasted hedgehog like it’s the Middle Ages. Get with the program!”

hugopal if they serve a nice bottle blue nun to go with that, it sounds wonderful

Bocca di Lupo for lunch with my mate Jon, Nick Muir (KLANG) and our birds. Haven’t been for a while, but it was absolutely stunning. Still my favourite restaurant.

Smallman1 I went there on Fri for the first time for lunch. Great refurb (I used to work almost opposite in 2009 so often went there for lunch pints - when that were still acceptable practice) but the restaurant tables are too small and too close together.

The food was largely great - smoked salmon then fillet and duck fat chips for moi - and a notable shout out to the fresh, warm rolls they serves. But the Grand Marnier souffle I shared with the Duchess was a tepid eggy horror. Two glasses of mid table plonk each.

It was a shade over £200, though. That’s Michelin star territory in my experience and it neither has nor deserves one (or more).

And despite prefacing lunch with 3 pints of Guinness I’m buggered if I could taste any difference in the pints from anywhere else in London. My ill-educated palate, I presume.

Smallman1 Thought it was good.

Thanks for the comprehensive review

Smallman1 when have you ever given actual feedback? You reviews of everything are non existent. I think you just like to tell everyone what you are up to.

However I look forward to your 3 word review as always
