Hoi Polloi Restaurant Review
Hoi Polloi is an English modern brasserie in Ace Hotel Shoreditch. We had brunch at Hoi Polloi last year and loved it, so were keen on dinner at Hoi Polloi. But, for whatever reason, Hoi Polloi languished on our dinner list, until a very good friend wanted to join us for dinner last weekend. Hoi…
Lima Floral Review
Lima Floral is a contemporary Peruvian restaurant in Covent Garden. We adore Peruvian cuisine – Chotto Matte and Pachamama are two of our favourite restaurants – but Lima Fitzrovia, Lima’s Floral’s sister restaurant, was relegated to my solo excursion list because the menu doesn’t have much on offer for Shiima (doesn’t eat pork and only…
MBER Restaurant Review
MBER is a tapas style Pan-Asian restaurant by Monument Station in the City. We love tapas style restaurants because we can order even more food than usual (which is a lot 😁), and Pan-Asian food includes some our favourite dishes from our favourite cuisines. So we were well excited to dine at MBER. MBER is stylish,…
Robata Soho Review
Robata is a Japanese restaurant in Soho specialising in charcoal cooking on the Robata grill. Soon as I heard about Robata Soho I was in, and so was Shiima when I showed her the menu because it has a bunch of her favourite Japanese dishes and many more intriguing options. We were sat at the…
Cornerstone Hackney Review
Cornerstone is an elegant restaurant in Hackney Wick focused on creative yet simple seafood dishes. Shiima’s started to enjoy seafood, but a seafood-focused restaurant is a stretch for her. I, on the other hand, love seafood so Cornerstone Hackney has been right at the top of my solo excursion list for a while now. Plus,…
Brother Marcus Spitalfields Review
Brother Marcus is an all day small-plates Mediterranean restaurant in Spitalfields. We are big fans of Mediterranean cuisine and absolutely loved our dinner at Barboun last week, so we were quick to reserve a table at another celebrated Mediterranean restaurant. Plus, I love small-plates (tapas style) restaurants. Needless to say, we were very excited about…
Barboun Shoreditch Review
Barboun is a chic Mediterranean restaurant in Shoreditch. I came across Barboun while reading about newly opened restaurants and I was intrigued by the menu. It has a lot of the dishes we’ve enjoyed at other Mediterranean restaurants and many more mouthwatering options. So Barboun moved to the top of our list! First thing you…
Top 10 London Restaurants 2019
We enjoyed over 80 London restaurants this year so picking our top 10 from those was difficult, especially because we got to reminisce about all the delicious food. But it was also a lot of fun for the same reason 😁. Hope you have as much fun reading it!
Passo Restaurant Review
Passo is a chic Italian restaurant in Shoreditch. Italian cuisine isn’t one of our favourites, but then we really enjoyed our most recent experience in Fucina and adore pizza. So we decided last week to have Italian and I spent almost an hour looking for the perfect spot… Passo in Shoreditch. Passo was the perfect…
The Coal Shed London Review
The Coal Shed is a British restaurant specialising in coal roasted steaks and seafood. The Coal Shed has a restaurant in London and Brighton; as you’d expect we dined at the London restaurant in One Tower Bridge, which is also home to other restaurants such as Gunpowder which is one of our favourites. We had…
Red Farm London Review
Red Farm in Covent Garden is the London outpost of the trendy New York Chinese restaurant. We’ve never been to either of Red Farm’s New York Restaurants, but Red Farm London is loud, confident, and casually stylish just as you’d expect in a trendy New York restaurant. We first became aware of Red Farm London…
