(James Ellroy-esque brevity has absolutely nothing to do with a lack of creativity on my part…nothing at all)
Ate here last night. Slick. Manhattan-cum-Farringdon vibe. Couple of glasses of champagne (£7 a pop) to limber up. Warm bread brought to table. Good.
Pleasant meal form the 2-course set menu (£13.50). Seared beef salad starter. Nice horseradish mouse. Pan-fried sea bream main for the TheFatBanker. Nice capers with the fish. Slathered in olive oil though.
My gorgeous date (henceforth known as my gorgeous fiancée!!) had crayfish salad starter, followed by pan-fried mackerel main. Mackerel won the day; gazpacho-soaked croutons were the highlight.
Nice casual place to see and be seen. Hyper-friendly staff. Would recommend to friends meeting to catch up over some food. Should see more gastro-excitement here tonight…
