Review – Lyle’s
8/10, Fatthomas, ReviewAt first sight Lyle's in Shoreditch actually looks and feels like the kind of restaurant that I don't like. A loud and overly bright open-plan, brick walled hall bearing comparison to a train station....

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 – Señor Ceviche
8/10, ReviewWho doesn't hate Carnaby Street? Answer: Out-of-Towners, and I am not talking about the awful movie with Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn.
The absurdity of London's century old infrastructure coping with 10 million tube and...
Review – Bone Daddies

Review – Bad Egg
7/10, ReviewAs a Clarence Court Egg lover and regular Smokehouse customer I have been looking forward to the opening of Neil Rankin's new eatery in Moorgate. I was unsure what to expect of the new eggy...
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 – Tincan
7/10, ReviewAfter shamefully skipping the gym today and going for a leisurely stroll through lunchtime Soho I found myself passing Tincan's window display on Upper James St. I had read about this place before and...
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...
