Your Next Food Trip The overall experience at restaurant 1890 was excellent, and I can now see why the restaurant was awarded 1 Michelin star. It’s almost hidden in a small section of the Savoy that’s luxurious in its own right. I had the lunch set at £90, which already includes 3 of the 5 dishes featured on the full tasting menu. Everything was excellent. It’s a great place to take a date.

Sanj Visited Christopher’s for lunch and dessert to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and as always, it didn’t disappoint. The food was lovely — we had the chicken burger, and the sauce was especially flavourful and really brought the dish together. The real standout, though, was the brioche French toast — consistently excellent and easily one of the best desserts on the menu. It was a nice touch having ‘Happy Birthday’ written on the plate, which made it feel special, even if it’s a shame they don’t do the sparklers anymore. The atmosphere was great, as it always is — lively, buzzing, and full of energy, which adds to the overall experience. A reliable spot for good food, great desserts, and a celebratory lunch.

Nel Kerai Absolutely fantastic food. Every dish had a twist with different inventive sauces providing a great variety of rich flavours, without heavy creaminess. Ice cream cone chaat and candy floss dessert delivered playfulness and originality. Grand yet homely interior with nostalgic memorabilia giving it a comfortable feel. Service was 10/10 with food orders arriving quickly and our waiter was very attentive and informative. A memorable celebratory experience.

Adrian Earp It was our first visit to Wahaca (Covent Garden), I had pre-booked as wasn’t sure how busy the restaurant got, although our booking was early 5pm, but it was a Friday evening in London! We were seated quickly and introduced to our server Paulina who was very knowledgeable and explained the menu in length. Drinks ordered and delivered quickly, Paulina then took our order; House Nachos were ordered to share, then 2 x Pibil Burrito and Slow-Cooked Beef Burrito, Buttermilk Chicken Taco, Pork Pibil Taco & Grilled Ajillo Chicken Club Quesadilla. The food was served as it was ready and it was fantastic or banging as our teenage boys say!

Mira Shah Six Clerks is such a cosy and inviting spot inside The Law Society, The food was absolutely incredible. Chef Scott Dineen created a five course tasting menu celebrating British spring produce, and every dish was a hit. We started with London sourdough and burnt onion butter - simple, rich, and the perfect way to begin. Then came “Down the Rabbit Hole”, a beautifully done pressed rabbit terrine with lemon verbena emulsion and black olive - so delicate and full of flavour. Next up, “Eggs ‘n’ Soldiers”, which was hands down one of my favourites. A creamy Lancashire bomb custard, firecracker jam, a soft pheasant egg, and Wye Valley asparagus - comforting but elevated. “Mary Had a Little Lamb”—perfectly cooked Romney Marsh lamb, with smoked belly curds, morels, wild garlic, and kombu dashi. Every element worked together beautifully. “The Crossover”, a clever play on a hot cross bun with sherry caramel, whipped Baron Bigod cheese, and black truffle - sweet, savoury, and completely addictive. And finally, dessert: “The Humble Carrot” - a gorgeous mix of carrot cake, ice cream, pickled walnuts, orange marmalade, and dill granita. Unexpected, refreshing, and the perfect way to end. The whole experience was thoughtful, balanced, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

Leicester Eats & Sips The Punch and Judy pub in Covent Garden is a real hidden gem with so much history behind it. The pub is named after the famous Punch and Judy shows, which have long been part of Covent Garden’s cultural heritage, and you can really feel that sense of history when you are there. It is part of the Greene King chain, but it does not feel generic at all. The drinks are reasonably priced, especially for such a central London location, and the food looks absolutely delicious. There is also a great selection of beers on offer. One of the highlights is the balcony seating where you can sit, relax and watch the entertainment and atmosphere of Covent Garden below. There is not a huge amount of space on the balcony, but that just adds to its charm. It really feels like a place you would miss unless you know where to look, as it is slightly tucked away and easy to walk past. A brilliant little addition to Covent Garden, especially in the summer, with character, history and good value for money.
