Greatly disappointing , this Bethnal Green restaurant has indeed good google reviews but when it comes to try it I am not so sure who rated it..Pretentiously overpriced , the food here does not taste much despite an effort of presentation – what you get in your plate will not make you smile . The service is amateur and the menu not inspiring and tasteful at all . Sadly not at the level of our expectations- I will personally not recommend this place to anyone.
Here is our menu dated September 16, 2015 : This was not good . Wrong mix of ingredients and spice. No “mouth explosion” here, very dull , neutral taste. This chef has not succeeded transporting us for the night with new senses and flavours. Shame.
The wine we have selected was decent – a Birgit Braunstein Pinot.

For once, and this is not usual for me, I will not enclose photos to this post because as a food critic I want you to try me then trust me : if you want to have a real, proper, tasty but really good Sunday Roast there is only one place in London for that and it is in Kensal Rise ..I have tried it twice and it is outstanding from : the quality of the meat, the taste of the meat, the way it is cooked, the vegetables served with your roast … this is not the usual carrots and potatoes ..
Here we serve perfectly cooked cauliflowers, kale, beautifully cooked potatoes ( soft on the inside, crushy on the outside..yummy !) and a home made horseradish cream on demand..
A very, very pleasant and professional service throughout ..then let’s say it..the sticky toffee pudding ..is to die for ..go and try it .
With its 25000 archipelagos , let’s say it isn’t easy to know where to eat in Stockholm where you get there for the first time – so here are the best of the best if you are there for a weekend :
Stockholm has a strong Coffee culture so here are the best places to go for coffee that you are a big coffee lover or trying to stop coffee drinking substitute such as Matcha latte ( and most importantly if you would like to avoid Starbucks which sadly has just opened up in Stockholm ):
Drop Coffee Roasters : the ” incontournable ” ! they roast their own coffee and export to London too. Here you can have a delicious cafe with the typical Swedish pastry made of cinnamon and one of their sandwichs
