Another visit last year to the best restaurant in London (IMO) @kitchentable1
Coincidentally I bumped in to @cal_byerley & @sian_byerley of the amazing
@restaurantpine up near Newcastle.
On that note I will now unashamedly brag about the time that I sat eating dinner at restaurant Pine and found it to be so good that I sent a message to the former Times restaurant critic Marina O'Loughlin (legend) who then visited Pine and wrote a stellar review that then resulted in... well I'm sure you know what a great review from Marina results in.
I was so happy to be sat next to Cal and Sian all evening as they really are the best people and so deserve every success at Pine.
The food at Kitchen Table keeps getting better and better. @jknappett and the team are doing a stellar job (I’ve been back a couple of times since this visit). It’s my number one recommendation if you’re in London 👌🏻
