It’s quite nice just hitting the sushi counter at Niju, watching @david.sushi.london and his team prepare all of the nigiri and sashimi in front of you. There’s only a handful of seats and it’s on a walk-in only basis, so pretty casual, but the quality of fish here is hard to beat in London. They do both classic and ‘Niju-style’ nigiri, the latter of which they play with a few more ingredients and have lots of aburi-style nigiri. Had some incredible tuna and scallop nigiri this evening. The torched scallop with butter, sichimi and soy was incredibly soft and smokey - melted in the mouth with the luke-warm grains of shari. Also loved the Icelandic uni gunkan - the urchins just came in and were looking vibrant as ever. Very umami and not so sweet but really fresh and creamy. Hamachi with ponzu jelly really good too. They came round with the days selection of Wagyu beef too but I was very much on a sushi vibe so had a look and continued hitting the nigiri! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

This is where it’s at. The most incredible, flavoursome and juicy tandoori chicken in town. It’s been a favourite of my dad’s for many years and has been growing in popularity because of how simple and delicious the food is here. The restaurant is famous for its Chooza chicken - a loved chicken recipe from Nairobi that blends together Kenyan and Indian spices. The Chooza spring chicken is spatchcocked and scored all over before being marinated in a blend of ingredients that includes yogurt, Kashmiri chilli’s, garlic, ginger, coriander and mustard oil amongst lots of other secret spices. Marination here is at-least 24h so that the flavours seep all the way down to the bone. The result is a deep red colour that is beautifully smoked and charred in the clay tandoor. The flavours are incredible, it’s so unique and you won’t taste anything quite like it - it’s spicy, tangy, and well balanced. Mouthwatering chicken. Everything develops in intensity after it hits the grill. Extra Chooza sauce on the side is essential for the rice. IMO, the tandoori chicken legs here are the co-star of the show, so make sure you order them. Super juicy . Lamb chops are also excellent, as is the paneer tikka and the masala fries. Usually I’ll do half a Chooza and 3 chicken legs plus a few chops. Nothing like a Hashmi session.. #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Been meaning to come back here for the longest time. Think I first visited around 2 years ago and loved what they were doing in the kitchen. Glad to say it’s as good as I remembered it to be! A proper pub serving really tasty food. The Dexter cheeseburger is of course one of their biggest hits. It’s the perfect middle ground between a regular cheeseburger and a smash. The patties are pressed just enough to get a lovely crust but not all the way down to a crisp. The result is a much juicer bite of beef, topped with melted American, thick pickles, diced onion, crispy onions and a mouth-coating burger sauce. All of this between two thoroughly toasted brioche buns. It’s a hell of a burger, ticking so many boxes - unctuous, beefy and satisfying. A little more salt needed for me but it’s seriously good, especially given A) how many of these things are ordered each night and B) how many other plates they are throwing out from that tiny kitchen. The pappardelle with cavolo Nero pesto and pine nuts was beautiful. Thick ribbons of al dente pasta in a deep green, glossy, perfectly emulsified pesto sauce. Had to order a second one of these, was like digging for gold with those toasted pine nuts. Fried pizza with marinara and anchovies was delicious too. The blackened chipolatas with mustard may sound simple but they’re too difficult to resist. Nothing better than a charred chipolata and spicy English mustard on the side. It’s a no BS pub with great food. Worth the visit! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️ Less

Sunday sessions at Dorian are the best - it’s when Max and the team freestyle a little and you can find all sorts of specials and magic on the menu here. Of course, the steak takes pride of place on the table - charred over charcoal and lathered in clarified butter and beef jus. It’s the ultimate plate of beef. The T-bone was exceptional - perfectly pink and well rested with a lovely Smokey crust and intense dry-aged flavour. Caviar rosti’s because I’m a sucker for those perfect dollops of @n25caviar and that hash brown-esque, crispy potato base. The lobster tail salad with grilled sweetcorn kohlrabi was incredible - lots of saffron and a super savoury flavour profile with tender, sweet lobster tail cooked on the grill. The lamb ribs are a new favourite of mine, hadn’t had these before. Ultra soft and pull-apart tender. Served with shiso relish and greenage and glazed in a sticky lamb sauce. Always love the vibe here, it’s just got a very different kind of buzz. Great food , great people!! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Nothing quite like the mood in this dining room. An almost homely feel in here with its dim lighting, candles and rustic interiors. So relaxing watching the chefs prepare the pizza with the glowing brick oven in the back. The prep table is packed full of fresh, seasonal ingredients and toppings. Lots of mushrooms, onion, basil, lightly marinated artichoke, sweet and hot peppers and plenty of fresh mozz. It’s a whole vibe. The grandma-style meatballs to start were great - a rare special that I was lucky to try. Made with veal, pork and plenty of parm, enveloped in Lucali’s famous tomato marinara. I think it’s the same sauce they use on the pizza - super rich and well balanced with a kiss of basil. That stuff is drinkable. They do regular pizza and calzone here. I was so full from a day of eating around town I only got the pizza but heard great things about that calzone. The pies here are big with an ultra thin, browned, almost smokey base. Lotssss of cheese on this thing but so tasty. The fresh mozz and rich tomato sauce creates a lovely flavour and texture on top. Lucali’s is always worth a visit #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

A thing of beauty. Came here just for this. What a masterpiece. It’s a very impressive looking plate. A giant beef patty covered in perfectly melted American cheese, surrounded by golden, crinkle cut fries and a thick pickle spear. The burger here consists of just a handful of elements: a toasted, seeded bun, 8oz beef patty, American cheese and raw onion. The cross section was lovely - a perfect temp and blushing pink centre. It was a tasty bite. LOTS of black pepper on the patty which I’m in to. Super beefy, well rested and juicy - made from ground NY strip and hangar steak. The dry aged flavour was there but nothing overwhelming, a good balance. I coulda probably handled a little more funk tbh though, and a touch of salt wouldn’t hurt to amp up all of the flavours some more - just my 2 cents! The raw onion is a great addition - crunchy, punchy and helps to cut through the richness. This thing was great. It’s really not easy to churn out so many of these consistently but these guys seem to get it done. Fries deserve some applause too, they were addictive - crispy and well seasoned. Bookings go fairly quick but it’s not toooo difficult, just don’t show up and expect to be seated without one #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

A great little spot for dinner in the West Village. This One Michelin Starred Korean noodle house serves much more than just noodles. Lots of interesting bits on the menu here. The toro ssam bap was beautiful. A bowl of tobiko scattered sushi rice, fatty tuna, egg, shallots, jalapeño, toasted seaweed, golden oscietra caviar and Hokkaido uni. A whirlwind of flavour but a cohesive one at that! The idea here is to take a spoonful from the bowl and place it into the toasted nori - sort of creating a temaki. This thing was amazing. All the ratios just on point. I devoured like 5 of these things. Next up, my favourite plate of the night. The truffle scallop. Incredible. Thinly sliced raw scallops, truffle soy, pickled radish, truffle aioli, shimeji mushrooms and lots of burgundy truffle. Again amazing ratios here. So fresh and sharp, but creamy, fragrant and moreish at the same time. Ridiculous amount of complexity to the bite - v good. For noodles, I went for the lamb ja jang myun and Wagyu ramyun. The lamb ragu was fantastic - tossed in a black bean sauce with Szechuan spice and topped with pickled onion, herbs and cucumber. Once tossed all together it was a nice balance of freshness and numbing heat. The noodles were chewy and satisfying. Almost like a pici pasta. For the ramen, the veal bone broth was creamy and complex. Topped with thinly shaved A5 brisket, enoki, scallion oil, sesame and chili beef ragu. Lots going on here - it all worked though. Lovely broth. Noodles were just ok, I like them more al dente and chewy personally. Lots of other bits throughout dinner, the fried chicken and caviar, pork ribs, etc etc. could go on, but the food is great here. V extensive wine list too. The chocolate soft serve with burgundy truffle for dessert was pretty special too.. #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Always a nice vibe in here. Dim lighting and only a handful of covers makes for a very intimate dinner service but I love that about 4 Charles. Staff are always friendly and on top of everything from wine to food. Bone marrow to start was knockout. I love it - grilled sourdough, onion jam and parsley on the side as accompaniments. Very deep bones filled with caramelised, buttery marrow. It’s a super flavoursome bite when you stack it all onto the toast. French dip is solid too. The beefy au jus and horseradish make for a very well balanced sandwich and the baguette is crusty enough so that it’s not one big soggy mess. The fully loaded burger is usually my favourite but this time it was the French dip that won me over. Didn’t find the burger quite as flavoursome as before! Prime rib was beautifully cooked, perfect medium rare and ultra tender. It cut with ease and had a nice full flavour - a very mild funk and super moreish overall. Paired this with a 2015 Chateau du Margaux. Wine was interesting, full bodied and full of dark berries but not much of a finish - expected a bit more from it. Probs needs a few more years. Butter lettuce salad is a must on the side as is that creamed spinach. For dessert, the chocolate cream pie is the winner for me. It’s like pure chocolate ganache with a crispy Oreo base - one bite is never enough! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️
