Perfect to play cards and enjoy Swiss dishes: Restaurant Werdguet (27. October 2025)
Talking about a safe bet – I went for the “menu salad with garlic sauce”, which was definitely tasty, but was also incredibly full with garlic – which is great, if you’re into that. As a main, I went for the “veal cordon bleu, filled with raw ham from the Grisons and vegetables” (CHF 46.00), […]
A good sushi place for a quick business lunch: Restaurant QQ Sushi Taho (27. October 2025)
I’m curious if this joint will survive for longer since this is the fourth or fifth restaurant trying it in this location. We shall see. In any case, the place was booked quite well for lunch, but wasn’t overly crowded either – in any case, booking in advance is recommended. I went for the “tako […]
Superbly hyped but definitely not a place you need to visit: Restaurant Clos Maggiore (25. October 2025)
The Clos Maggiore was on my to do list for quite a while since it has been labelled as one of the most romantic restaurants in London – and I figured, why not give it a try. However, it’s not really that mind-blowing, so, not entirely sure how it got up there. After a rather […]
A place I should have visited much earlier: Japanese BBQ & Bento @ Borough Market (25. October 2025)
When it’s raining outside and the weather is cold, you feel like warming up with something tasty, so the Borough Market is just perfect for that purpose. The only issue with that is that there are so many food joints that it’s hard to pick. But given it was actually quite cold, a warm ramen […]
If you randomly stumble upon the perfect breakfast spot: Chestnut Bakery Covent Garden (25. October 2025)
It was nothing but luck that I saw the Chestnut Bakery Covent Garden, but given the place was already quite crowded right after it had opened and given the food looked tasty, I figured one should have breakfast here. I started with the “turkey, garlic & honey mustard lattice” (GBP 7.25), which was actually quite […]
Great hand-made noodles for a late night snack: Lanzhou Lamian Noodle Bar (24. October 2025)
Funny enough, only an hour or so before, I’ve seen this joint online offering great hand-made noodles for less than GBP 10.00 – and given it was just around the corner from my hotel, I figured I should give it a try, so, I did. I went for the “beef noodle soup” (GBP 10.90), which […]
Superb service, friendly staff, tasty, but expensive: Restaurant SiLVA (24. October 2025)
It wasn’t all too easy to find a place on a Friday evening, which has space and has a good rating. I found hte SiLVA and I must admit that the waitress taking care of me did an amazing job. She was jovial, friendly, and professional at the same time. Perfect service! I went for […]
A unique dining experience based on fire and smoke at the Chef’s Table: Restaurant Humo (23. October 2025)
I was not quite sure what to expect, but when you enter the Humo and are led downstairs to the private room, then you’re definitely in a for a treat. There are four waiters and two chefs attending you – and we were only a group of eight, so, it’s a rather nice and exclusive […]
