Hyde Park Tavern

January 19, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

    date of visit:  Tuesdsay 17 January 2012 I’m one of these people who spends far too long thinking about where to eat which makes a simple lunch date a three hour exercise in research. After quite a bit of agonising I decided I was being ridiculous and I should just choose the venue [...]

Tongue Thai’d

January 4, 2012 Restaurant Reviews

    date of visit: Friday 16 December 2011 There are some places I eat at where the service is so good it helps me gloss over inconsistencies in the food. And then there are some places where it’s all about the food. Tongue Thai’d would be one of the latter. So do you want [...]
