Good Morning Baltimore!
Have a little sniff around my renovated site (please) if you want to go to a restaurant or pub or bar in London and for other food related stuff too. Enjoy my new moving slideshow, which someone far cleverer than me put up (how do they do it?) and the photo gallery and the recipes section (which is a work in progress I'm afraid).
The Recipes Section Has Arrived!
But has limited content. I'll get there eventually, only it takes a lot longer to actually construct a recipe than to write a half arsed, ineloquent review about a place I would have eaten and drank at anyway. Check it out
Photo Galleries
In time, there will be some pictures of food and restaurants and me eating food and eating at restaurants, but I need to get a camera first. Click here to visit the Galleries

WelcomeThe world is not my oyster. If it was, I would have the ability and or freedom to do whatever the hell I wanted to do. That said, the world could be my mussel (because they are smaller and not as grand as oysters), on the basis that I do have some opportunities and some ability. So, the world is my mussel. But, none of the above has any direct relevance to this site, except for the word mussel, because mussels are food. So, please do use this site to search restaurants and bars in London and try (I implore you) to enjoy my reviews.

Excellence takes centre stage at City restaurant Caravaggio, when it pays tribute to the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee with modern Italian food and English wines.
National Vegetarian Week 21 - 27 May
Veggie treats at Tossed
The annual awareness-raising campaign promoting inspirational vegetarian food and the benefits of a meat-free lifestyle is here. See what’s in store at Tossed.
Burger & Lobster
If I’m not careful this review is going to end up reading more like an epic poem, like the Iliad or the Odyssey, and I’ll start feeling like a 21st Century Homer, regaling everyone with my tales of Burger & Lobster.
The Three Bells
I wouldn’t normally bother to review somewhere like The Three Bells at London Heathrow’s Terminal 3 because for obvious reasons, it would be a faintly ridiculous thing to do.
Celebrate Food 'From the Gardens' at IL Convivio
Belgravia’s most renowned Tuscan restaurant, IL Convivio in Ebury Street, pays homage to nearby Chelsea Flower Show with a menu inspired by the array or herbs and flowers on show this year.
Market Cafe
The prospect of one of my friend Frances’s steak baguettes with anchovy and spring onion butter gets me all wound up with excitement and anticipation, and so the other night at Market Cafe on Broadway Market, I was thrilled to find a steak with anchovy butter on the menu.
China Tang at The Dorchester
I’ve been told a few times now that I don’t really focus on the food or the dining experience very much, to which I respond, naturally and calmly, with the suggestion that perhaps reading about food and or the dining experience is for the most part incredibly dull, and tantamount to hanging ones washing, or bleaching ones shower curtain to eliminate any hellish spores.
Pierre Victoire
Last weekend I went to Pierre Victoire in Soho with the Vegetarian and some of her friends.
When we arrived, we were told we had to wait ten minutes OUTSIDE for them to get the table ready, which was less than ideal.
Mishkins
Mishkins has been around for a little while already, and unsurprisingly it’s taken me a long time to get down there to see the raved about ‘kind of Jewish deli with cocktails’ for myself. You see, unlike many food bloggers, I don’t book a table as soon as the restaurant opens, and rush excitedly along with my camera, because I simply haven’t got the time or inclination. I’d rather wait a little bit longer and get a table.
