25 Lisle St (White Bear Yard), London, Greater London
Dim Sum Restaurant · Chinatown · 42 tips and reviews
Nat M: Service staff seemed lost at times. Food was just ok; found the xiao long bao skin a little too thick & roast meats nothing to rave about. Also note that they charge £1 for chopped red chili in sauce
Nat M: Cheap and good pizza with fresh ingredients and friendly staff. Perfect for late night eating after clubbing, but bear in mind they shut at 3pm though.
72 Chalk Farm Road, Chalk Farm, London, Greater London
Belgian Restaurant · Chalk Farm · 35 tips and reviews
Nat M: Mussels FTW. Not the freshest but well-made in some tasty sauces. Mop them up with bread. If you're feeling adventurous, go for the half kilo. It's worth it.
Nat M: Decent dosai but they were a little scant with the onions for the Rava onion one. The spicy red chutney was the best IMHO. Fresh sweet paan FTW.
Modern European Restaurant · Islington · 9 tips and reviews
Nat M: Good food & service. Meat-lovers, the melt-in-your-mouth lamb is recommended. One complaint: my brussels were sandy i.e. not washed properly. For such a nice restaurant, that was disappointing.
202 Upper St (Canonbury Park St), Islington, Greater London
Bakery · 51 tips and reviews
Irfan Qureshi: For the perfect relaxing mood, order a cafe latte and a blueberry clafoutis. Great music, great ambience and friendly staff , well, 9 out of 10 times at least.
Japanese Restaurant · Chinatown · 131 tips and reviews
Nat M: Lunch sets are worth it! Flavourful soba noodles cooked just right, bowlful of salad, fresh sashimi. Warning, you might experience a post-lunch food coma. Expect queues even during lunch.
Nat M: Cute little coffee joint tucked away in Ealing. Perfect for a chilled out Sunday. Food is really good too (venison sausage sandwich, yum!). Staff really pleasant too.
Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurant · 46 tips and reviews
Nat M: A little pricey, but not bad for a good vegan meal. The croquettes, bangers & mash and burger are pretty good. I'd recommend the starter mezze to try a little bit of everything.
Ramen Restaurant · Holborn and Covent Garden · 158 tips and reviews
Nat M: If you like a rich tonkotsu broth, try Kanada-ya. I had mine with the spicy miso paste & that gave it a real kick. Kimchi & pickled ginger free-flow on the table. Tiny place, so expect to wait. Long.
