My Kitchen

Hotel restaurants are pretty funny things. No other type of eating establishment, I think, seems to have such an arbitrary disparity in quality. I’ve stayed in fantastic hotels with mediocre in-house dining, in some … Read more →

West Thirty Six
Open daily 11am–1am
Arguably, the arrival of West Thirty Six on the wrong end of Golborne Road reveals how gentrified (that dreaded g-word) the area has become, but I have to admit I welcomed its arrival (who doesn’t like pretty … Read more →

Boom Burger
Open Tue–Sat midday–11pm; Sun midday–6pm
London’s gone bloomin’ burger mental in the last couple of years. I blame Yianni Papoutsis, the king of the second wave of burgeristas. The first wave saw Gourmet Burger Kitchen change the landscape. They knew … Read more →

I liked the old pre-fire Electric. I liked the decoratively tiled … Read more →
