Almost a year ago, I read Krista’s rave review of Tomoe sushi and thought “hmm, it’s cheap, fresh, handy when near Oxford Street *and* it’s named Tomoe [just like my fave sushi place in NY].” There was *no question* I was going to rush over. So. I’ve been to Tomoe five or six times over [...]

The Regent’s potato pizza, Islington
Posted in Everyday in London, Islington, London Eating, tagged Angel, Islington, pizza in London, The Regent on October 22, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Since the Regent opened a year ago, I’ve been a fan. During the day, it’s a bright, airy place to park yourself with a paper or laptop, and at night, it’s a warm, friendly place to have a drink and eat good pizza. As we all do with neighborhood places, I have my habits (ruts?) [...]
Rosa’s (Thai), Spitalfields
Posted in London Eating, tagged London restaurants, Rosa's, Spitalfields, Thai in London on October 18, 2008 | 14 Comments »
While the City is dead on the weekends, the masses of workers who linger in the area for Friday drinks can make places around Liverpool Street pretty festive. Jon and I, being lightweights and slightly anti-social, always break off from drinks at some point to find food, and so we were thrilled yesterday to find [...]
The Ledbury, Notting Hill (revisited)
Posted in Everyday in London, London Eating, tagged London restaurants, Michelin-starred, Modern British in London, Notting Hill, The Ledbury on October 9, 2008 | 12 Comments »
Today is Yom Kippur, the day of atonement, and I’m fasting. No beverages or food for 24 hours. But at sundown today, it’s back to my piggish ways. What better way to spend my last food-and-drink-free hours than to write about delicious delicious food? I *must* be delirious. Jon and I returned to the Ledbury [...]
The Garrison gastropub, London Bridge
Posted in Everyday in London, London Eating, tagged gastropubs in London, London Bridge, London restaurants, meatloaf on October 4, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Last weekend was memorably sunny (I’ve lived in London long enough to say things like “I remember that sunny week in April 2007″), so Jon and I headed to the South Bank, one of our favorite places to walk in good weather. Instead of our usual walk west past the Globe and Tate Modern, we [...]
September 2008 Stats
Posted in Everyday in London on October 1, 2008 | 9 Comments »
In an effort to do as Krista does at Londonelicious (but without snazzy graphics because I’m a technologically-challenged moron that way), here’s my summary of September 2008 stats for this blog. I had 15,786 page views last month, and over the last 30 days, my top five blog-only (i.e., not google or other “regular” website) [...]
