Chotto Matte Harajuku Brunch – Review
Exploring a new Soho – Chotto Matte Brunch For those who thought that London was dead, I challenge you to visit Soho on a Friday or Saturday. Like Covent Garden, parts of the district have been pedestrianised and like Covent Garden, there’s a real buzz. That’s being helped along by restaurants like Chotto Matte who […]
Easy Cooking with Fish – Kedgeree
Easy Fish Dishes – Kedgeree It always surprises me how much I enjoy Kedgeree. Since I’m not usually a fan of eggs in any format, this concoction of rice, fish and boiled eggs doesn’t seem like a natural mixture to me. But, somehow Kedgeree without egg just wouldn’t work. Even for me. It’s actually a […]

Art and Brunch at the National Gallery
The National Gallery Cafe Brunch. Have you ever found yourself at a gallery or museum wanting to stay longer to see more, but knowing that you need some food, only to be disappointed with a selection of sad limp cling-film wrapped sandwiches? I know that I have. The good news is that many of our […]
Bill’s Covent Garden
Day to night dining in comfort and style at Bill’s “Bill’s for breakfast!” is a cry often heard in our house at weekends. Our local branch has become our go-to-place when the family gathers and no one will take responsibility for producing a breakfast with the required amount of crispy bacon and pancakes, cooked to […]
Sunday Garden Brunch has arrived at the Montagu Kitchen
A Garden Brunch in the Heart of London. Despite living less than a 30-minute drive from Chartwell, Winston Churchill’s retreat in Kent, it’s many years since I’ve visited. Bringing the essence of Chartwell’s gardens into Marylebone is an inspired idea. One that we found to be executed brilliantly at The Montagu Kitchen by […]
