As you turn into Crawford Street, a waft of scented shisha smoke greets you gently. I love that smell, because you know that, pretty much, there will always be very good food indeed nearby. I have a bit* of a love affair with scents and tastes of Middle Eastern food. Cyprus was invaded by everyone, …

The Sheesh, Bury St Edmunds
We visited The Sheesh for the first time yesterday, and I can safely say we will ABSOLUTELY be going again. Mum and Dad have been telling us how good it was, so we were very happy to get the chance. I've eaten a lot of Turkish food, my mum lives in Northern Cyprus, and …
Strut and Cluck
Last year I raved about Café Murano Covent Garden to anyone who would listen. (It has now become my boss's favourite restaurant.) On our visits we made friends with the flame haired Kelly, who was the Manager. She has the knack of making you feel like you’ve just dropped in for dinner with old …
The Greek Larder
Greek Larder There are days when I just want Greek food. Not food that I have cooked, but food where I do not have to do the clearing up afterwards. One evening earlier this year, the sun had been shining all day, and I just craved lemons and olive oil and fish. Then The Greek …
Chop Bloc, Chelmsford
I heard about Chop Bloc via Gary on Twitter. I’m not sure how a new steak place opening up not that far from us managed to pass me by, but it had. We’ve eaten at Miller & Carter in Chelmsford quite a few times, and have always found them to be of excellent quality, and …
Mabel’s. Maiden Lane, Covent Garden
I can’t remember now how I heard about Mabel’s. I think it might have been on Facebook, but I am ever so glad I did hear about it. I signed up to their site, and got given a 50% off voucher for my first visit. We booked it up for the 14th of May, there …
Duck and Waffle, Heron Tower–Chef Dan Doherty
It’s not often you get to look down on the Gherkin – sorry, 30 St Mary Axe – but believe me, when you do, it takes a while for your brain to adjust. It certainly takes a while for your brain to settle after the 24 seconds of “OMG!” as you ascend to Duck …

Brasserie Vacherin – Croydon
A Sunday night in south Croydon may not seem like a very romantic thing to you, but I can assure you there are two places which make this entirely possible. One is Albert’s Table, reviewed by your heroine on these pages before, and assuming the status of a very firm favourite. Now we have Brasserie …
Flesh and Buns, Covent Garden
Thanks to a lovely Twitter lady, I had the chance to go to Flesh and Buns. Bone Daddies’ new basement opening in the heart of Covent Garden. I called a friend, as the reservation was for two people, and we met up at the location in Earlham Street. It was a very hot day, so …
Ikimiz–Kyrenia, Cyprus
I know this isn’t really fair of me to review a place that hardly anyone will get a chance to go to, but I was so impressed with this restaurant that I had to write about it. I also had to share some of my rather bad photos with you, in the vain hope that …
