Spanish food is now easily enjoyed in a number of London tapas bars and cafes, but Camino has already put its mark on the City with a distinctive brand of gourmet Spanish food and a top wine list. The’Camino’it aims to travel is the link between the different regions of Spain which each have their own specialities and tastes

The bill was approximately £65.00 each, but that was a la carte with fabulous wines by the glass, so all in all, not bad for fine dining. There were a few’faces’ there, but it would be indiscrete to mention them (even though I really want to!) because I would imagine celebs choose this place for its discretion and unpretentious approach. Now, who am I to sabotage that?

Life outside London. David J Constable goes over the water to find that burgers and ribs are okay for jaded Londoners but in other places skill, ingredients and an interest in real restuarant food still thrives. And with a strong Northern Irish accent.

This place isn’t going to feature on any food blogger’s radar, or that of the hair-shirt bien-pensants either who will only knee -jerk sneer at it, but overall the cooking is culinary-exam mode perfect, and yes it does have flavour but what it needs to do is break out, to have fun and to risk being more creative.  Maybe even try some of that advertised fusion, of course no one wants to witness a car crash but it wouldn’t hurt Levi to loosen his seat belt just a little bit.

There are restaurants that serve memorable food and there are restaurants that provide a memorable experience. Dans Le Noir does both of these and to round things off, a marriage proposal!

Once populated with space-age orange booths, management decided to over haul the space yet again with the more mingle-friendly seating plan of community tables. So now, along with the help of the floor length front window, it’s easier than ever to see and be seen at the Soho venue.

Restaurants like Pitt Cue with their finger food, mess, and loud simple flavours are all fighting for a slice of the under 30 demographic pie but it’s a relatively small and fickle pie, always restlessly moving on to the next big food thing. Pitt Cue certainly do what they do pretty well, but is that enough to build a long-term business in a building? They could well be back on the road this time next year and that is where, I think, this kind of food works best and where it really belongs.

When you’ve got a night at the theatre planned, it’s important not to get off to a bad start. Forget grabbing a quick sarnie or chancing yourself with a nearby take-away, Tuttons in Covent Garden provides a quick service, a nice atmosphere and a good menu.

The Kings Road is full of over the top restaurants, so now and then it’s refreshing to chill out in a no frills pizza joint with some good food, tasty drinks and plenty of humour.

Italians love kids, and pregnant women apparently, so I wasn’t worried about bringing along my second and five-month-old third cousins to this busy eaterie just off Piccadilly Circus. Within a half hour of arriving the place was heaving with parents and kids, the noise levels on a par to the traffic intersection outside, however not all of it stemming from the junior patrons.
