Princi, Soho

Posted in Everyday in London, London Eating, tagged , , , , , , on August 18, 2009 | 13 Comments »

I’ve been on a theater kick lately (the second half of Arcadia is a stand-out, by the way), and one of the major challenges associated with theater-going is finding a place to eat that’s quick, tasty and near the theater. So I finally got around to trying Princi, the Alan Yau-backed London branch of [...]

Murano Restaurant, Mayfair (revisited)

Last December, I tried Murano’s £25 lunch menu, which was outstanding value. I knew I’d be back, but as a testament to how slow I am to put words into action, I didn’t return until just last week. In the meantime, Murano picked up a Michelin star in January this year, and I [...]

Finally, last Wednesday, [...]

Murano Restaurant, Mayfair

After a hectic past few weeks, I’m finally away for the holidays. Yay! A foot of snow has just dumped down on the northeast US, and now that I’m no longer traveling, it’s lovely to see the blanket of white outside.
Just before I left London, I tried the £25 lunch menu at Angela [...]

First Impressions: Vigata Ristorante, Islington

Posted in Everyday in London, London Eating, tagged , , , , , on August 3, 2008 | 5 Comments »

Except for when I schlep down to Olivo and its sibling Oliveto in Belgravia, I’ve been disappointed when I eat at Italian restaurants in London. Compared to New York, London doesn’t have a huge number of Italian restos, so when I want to go Italian, I feel like I have few choices between a [...]
