Dinner a while back at the excellent @launcestonplace Launceston Place, where chef Ben Murphy @benmurphychef is producing some very tasty food indeed. Highly recommended and a very good option for a Sunday evening when a lot of restaurants are closed.

- Neil A. Chef added a new meal Dinner at The Araki - あら輝 at Araki
Another visit earlier this year (‘22) to @the_araki_london . Why this restaurant hasn’t had at the absolute minimum one Michelin star reinstated I really have no idea. For me it’s one of the best sushi restaurants in London.

Top tip, order the crab quiche, you won’t regret it

Another example of someone throwing off the shackles of the Michelin starred dining room to offer a more casual “rustic & convivial” atmosphere is Mathieu Germond, formerly co-owner, manager & incredible sommelier at London stalwart Pied à Terre.
Noizé (named of a tiny village in the Loire where Mathieu’s grandparents ran a farm) is right up my street and ticks all the boxes for me. A solid team of cooks are behind the stoves cooking seasonal dishes with bold combinations served in a straightforward but elegant style.
It says a lot that every other table that walked in while I was there was obviously a regular customer. I could tell straight away from the greetings they received from Mathieu. To be honest, even on my first visit, after an hour I had relaxed into my seat and felt like a regular as well, such is the service.
Picking dishes from the black boards I was able to create my own little tasting menu. I wanted to try as much as possible so they offered to do smaller portions for me. Mathieu took care of the wine choices of course and I was sad to leave. A really special place where it is obvious why they have a regular clientele. Can’t wait to go back.

Dinner a while ago at @anglorestaurant in Farringdon. Refined dishes using British foraged & responsibly farmed produce with an emphasis on reducing the restaurant’s environmental impact through reducing food waste, the usage of plastic, a natural wine list and reducing the amount of fish and meat on the menu. Also very tasty 👍🏻

Another visit to my favourite restaurant on the planet, @restaurantalchemist (Nov 21’) I’m not sure which visit to the pink room I found the most terrifying, the one in October (a few posts ago) where I was prancing around a pink table with 8 grown men or this one where @hayhay_hailz insisted we both dress the part. I showed up with some token pink trainers but Hayley went all in, throwing down some serious @timmy.mallett vibes (ask your parents). Check the video towards the end of the photos here to see the pink room in all it’s terrifying glory. And yes @rasmusmunkalchemist ,I know that it is streamed live onto the monitor in the kitchen ! 😅
(The pink room is sadly no more but has been replaced with another room that might be my favourite room ever. Watch this space 👀)
