May 30th, 2012  Plantains , chips and dips (4) @Shrimpy’s
Category: Brasserie (££) 
I was keen on trying Shrimpy’s, the recently opened sister restaurant of the East London institution Bistroteque. I have been to Bistroteque many times and have always enjoyed their bistro-style cooking with little pretence and all the more flavour, so I was looking forward to an evening of similar quality and culinary pleasure also at Shrimpy’s.

May 24th, 2012  A lot of food @ Pizza East
Category: Bistro (££) 
The reason why I must be the last person with any kind of interest in food, who has never been to Pizza East before is that I usually don’t like pizza. Out of the blue however I was overwhelmed by a sudden pizza craving and Pizza East seemed like an obvious choice. Read more... (717 words, 11 images, estimated 2:52 mins reading time)

 Finocchiona Toscana £3 @Briciole

Category: Le Budget (£)
When I heard about the opening of Briciole I knew I had to try it in my desperate and thus far not successful search for a decent and non pretentious neighbourhood Italian. Read more... (869 words, 16 images, estimated 3:29 mins reading time)

 Madame Tuyet's Chicken Skewers
When I received a parcel from Hello Fresh a few weeks ago with ingredients to try 3 different recipes, the chicken skewers with rice was my favourite one. Â Its original title is “Madame Tuyet’s Chicken Skewers with Ginger Rice“, but typical me – I didn’t properly read the recipe and added the ginger to the marinade rather than the rice. Â The result was very delicious indeed: Â beautiful tender chicken immersed in an South-East Asian inspired marinade on the most light and fluffy rice I have ever managed to make. Read more...

May 14th, 2012  Don Ceviche £6.75
Category: Bistro (££+) 
I love ceviche but no, I didn’t like Ceviche. Ceviche, a recently opened Peruvian restaurant in Soho, is the new darling of the London foodie scene, equally loved by food bloggers and food critics. Peruvian cuisine is predicted to be the new food trend of 2012 (as suggested in Huffington Post and The Telegraph) and apart from Ceviche, 2 more Peruvian restaurants are to open in London in the coming months.
I had Peruvian food only at a few occasions and enjoyed it a lot, so I was excited to meet my friend Uyen at Ceviche for a girly lunch. Read more... (876 words, 12 images, estimated 3:30 mins reading time)

 Australian Tartine @ Poilane
Category: Bistro (££)

The decision to give a very positive review to the all day breakfast/ tartine/French boulangerie place Cuisine de Bar by Poilane just off busy King’s Road is largely based on the fact that I am absolutely in love with their Australian Tartine (?£8.5). Ripe mashed avocado is generously layered onto a slice of deliciously fresh crisp artisan brown bread which has before been spread thinly with vegemite, the Australian version o f marmite. Together with the chilli flakes sprinkled on top, the result is an enticing mixture of salty and hot and creamy and I just absolutely love it. I think it’s the best hangover food ever, as it gives you everything you need to recover from having had one glass too many. Read more... (435 words, 7 images, estimated 1:44 mins reading time)

 Scotch Braddock White duck’s egg with Wye Valley asparagus soldiers £12.50
I was invited to HIX At The Albemarle and this review is not anonymous.
Category: Brasserie (£££) 
Love Leluu, The Skinny Bib and I met up for a belated birthday dinner and as it happened to be the end of the month we gladly took advantage of an invitation to sample the food at HIX at the Albemarle. Read more... (1026 words, 12 images, estimated 4:06 mins reading time)
