NAHM (Belgravia)NAHM (Belgravia)

Category: Haute Cuisine

RS took me to Nahm for my birthday. Very well chosen I have to say as I love Thai food and David Thompson’s Nahm is the first Thai restaurant in Europe to have received a Michelin star. Nahm is located at the Hakin Hotel in Belgravia well hidden away in a little residential side street. The restaurant is comfortably small and it must be one of the only Thai restaurants without Asian décor,which is not necessarily a bad thing… I found the atmosphere to be quite neutral (like hotel restaurants often tend to be) and the other guests all looked like bankers (you need good bonuses to afford dining there).

MIEN TAY (Shoreditch)MIEN TAY (Shoreditch)

Category: Le Budget

Another,Vietnamese restaurant on Kingsland Road,which I tried with N – best friend and lover of Vietnamese food since we went to Vietnam together – after having read some good reviews about it. We went there for a healthy Sunday lunch.

O my god this place is funny! The owners seem to try halfheartedly to rebuild some kind of tropical flora,which they attempt by trapping a wide variety of poor plastic flowers and artificial grass inside their glass tables.

QUE VIET (Shoreditch)QUE VIET (Shoreditch)

Category: Le Budget

I love Vietnamese. Ever since I’ve been to Vietnam it has been competing with Thai for the first place in my favourite Asian food ranking. I love the fresh taste of herbs together with lemongrass,ginger,fish sauce and chili,and particularly I love the fact that you can eat loads of it without gaining weight. And it’s good for your finances too as you can get high quality Vietnamese food for very little money in London. The problem with most of the Vietnamese restaurant on and around Kingsland Road,the Mecca of Vietnamese cuisine,is the fact that they are completely unsuitable for dates (unless you like having dates in a canteen style atmosphere on shared tables with people queuing into your face).
