Review – Kitchen Table
8/10, Fatthomas, ReviewWe lost a good man's youth on Saturday. Having to face his fifth decade my friend Tom did the only decent thing a self-respecting Londoner can do - book an entire Michelin Star Restaurant...

Fino – A Love Story
10/10, Fatthomas, ReviewAfter a prolonged spell of introspection on how to approach an overdue column on my favorite restaurants my pondering came to a somewhat surprising and poignant conclusion. My affair with eating throughout my electoral...
Review – Bao
8.5/10, Fatthomas, ReviewBao is so goddamn cute. Everything is tiny! The mugs, teapots, plates and of course the steamed buns. Without their ceremonial gentleness the staff behind the counter might just break the intricate clayware and...
Review – Blacklock
7.5/10, Micro-Review, ReviewYou are forgiven for your recent social media befuddlement about random photographs of 19th century irons atop various meat chops. I felt the same.

Surely the iron itself is a gimmick...
Review – The Manor
9/10, ReviewOh my! The Manor is phenomenal. Not since my first visit to the Fat Duck or Barrafina have I had a meal so joyous and life affirming. And of all places, it is in...
Review – Kitty Fisher’s
8/10, ReviewKitty Fisher's pervades with fading memories of a foregone era. Not only simply in name it shares its identity with the prominent 18th century British courtesan, an audacious It Girl and temporary companion of...
Review – Duke’s Brew & Que
7.5/10, Micro-Review, ReviewAnother greasy finger joint and probably not worth an exhaustive review - not at least because of its similarity to so many other great London BBQ venues. But without a doubt some of the...
Review – Smoking Goat
7/10, ReviewUntil this afternoon when I randomly strolled down Denmark Street I had no idea that Smoking Goat is now open during daytime, and evidently neither did anybody else - I ended up being the...
Review – Burger & Lobster
8/10, Micro-Review, ReviewAfter my recent journey through the London Lobster Shacks, Kitchens and Sheds I came to a rather obvious conclusion: Burger & Lobster is still better than everything else. By a stretch.
The one and...
Review – Caravan Kings Cross
7/10, Micro-Review, ReviewThe Kings Cross branch of Caravan has been a loyal staple in my list of go-to restaurants in London for quite some time now. A short walk from my flat (the famous Widdenham Toad!)...
Review – Blanchette
9/10, ReviewWhen writing negative reviews I often question my subjectivity - am I just grumpy? Was I just unlucky? Will my tiny, unimportant blog have a negative impact beyond its humble intentions? Am I just...
Review – Spuntino
8/10, ReviewI have never left Spuntino not drunk. This is a fact of life just like creepy pimps on Rupert Street or drinking pints in the freezing cold in Soho. And I like it.
Another fact...
Review – Pond Dalston
8/10, ReviewAloha!
Before going to newly opened Pond I never had Hawaiian food before, I think. It speaks of London's amazing food culture that instead of trying this somewhere in the Pacific I ended up having...
Review: Mission Wine Bar and Kitchen
3/10, ReviewSager & Wilde's second wine bar in Shoreditch opened recently with a focus on new Californian grapes. I was quite excited ahead of this but bitterly disappointed with the experience despite the very interesting...
