I have been outside this restaurant on many occasions and did not even notice it, I presumed it was a cafe of some sort. I have a friend visiting who recalled the good food and we decided to try it out on a Sunday evening. Unfortunately, so did a couple with a child of approximately 3 or 4, the little fellow must have been way over his bedtime as he cried and screamed the entire time we were there and the parents did nothing more than ignore him.

The menu had several fish specials that were fresh and uniquely prepared. I chose the prawn pasta which as absolutely lovely and my friend chose a Sardinian dish which she enjoyed.

My one gripe is that the prawns are not shelled, in fact the feelers had not even been removed and being the same colour as the tomato based sauce, I kept getting these in my mouth and having to remove them, not very dignified I promise. My 2nd gripe was a lack of a finger bowl or anything to wipe the hands on, apart from the one serviette with the table setting. So you are having to shell the prawns to eat them and … I presume lick you fingers clean ! I did ask and by the time I had finished my meal ( about 20 minutes later) was given a small ramekin with water in. Not ideal.

So whilst the food was most enjoyable for the most, the experience left a lot to be desired and I doubt I shall be returning soon.

I'll just have to review the Sausage Man as well, as I bought a pack of 10 marinated steaks from him just yesterday. Always fresh, always delicious and extremely friendly service. I have been buying there for many years and never once been disappointed. Expect to pay a few pence more, but certainly worth every penny.

Andrew, have you ever wandered past Llandudno Beach to Sandy Bay ? That used to be my favourite beach as it was ever so quiet and not visited by the tourists who found the walk a bit tiring.

Die is meer vir Suid Afrikaners wat die wereld vol woon en nog 'n huis of vakansie huis het in Kaapstad.

Absolute Maintenance lewer puik en besondere diens. Niks is te veel moiete nie en hulle het die huis ondersoek en vir my per epos laat weet van 'n paar klein reparasies. Die was netjies en oordentlik gedoen sonder enige probleme, die koste was ook heel aanvaarbaar.

Definitief iemand wat ek kan aanbeveel.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Shakespeare plays they have been holding in this supermarket. I thought I would pay a visit after reading about Supermarket Shakespeare in the Qype newsletter. What a way to shop and it is a lovely supermarket to shop in.

The Rivoli is used every Friday night for the filming of Justin Lee Collins' Good Times show. It might give people an idea of the lovely old decor if you watch the show.

I have kept rather quiet about this restaurant, albeit a little selfish :-) But feel it needs a review here as I am sure the members will agree with me on all points.
We had what was one of the most satisfying meals I have ever had in London. The service is by far the best I've ever had in London, attentive and polite. The decor is unusual (think airport diner), very art deco and not too over styled. The food was fabulous we both had seafood dishes and it was perfection and tasty. Before the meal they brought a basket with freshly baked breads and fruity olive oils, don't overdo the breads though, save some space for the delightful meal. I also have to recommend the desserts, light and heaveny, not oversweet.
I arrived at the restaurant early, was escorted and seated at our table and a glass of delightful champagne appeared to keep me company whilst waiting.
Do book though or be prepared to queue, some say they have a 2 hour table limit, but I have never found that was the case.

Monkey Valley, what wonderful memories that brings back. Where else can you sit in the bath with uninterrupted views of a beautiful beach and blue ocean or of course the milkwood forest ? Each unit of Monkey Valley in totally secluded and you can feel as if you are on your own little island. The restaurant has the freshest seafood you can imagine and superbly prepared. Wonderful !!!!!!
