Saturday 26th March, 2017 – The Lobby Bar and Eneko, One Aldwych, London A post-theatre dinner here was on the cards after much enthusiasm in certain press quarters about the food at Eneko, somewhere on the premises of One Aldwych. It helped that the cuisine in question is meant to be Basque and as a…

Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Weekend 2, Day 1
Saturday 18th February, 2017 – Copenhagen, Denmark And so after another week at the training coalface, A. arrived in good time on the Friday evening for us to indulge in a quick drink in the hotel bar before we trekked over to O Tempo (using slightly more buses than might have been necessary if we’d…
Food 2017 – Kadeau, Copenhagen
Monday 13th February, 2017 – Kaedeau, Copenhagen, Denmark I’m currently trapped in Copenhagen on a three-week training course, and because I work for a very civilised company, they offered to fly me home or fly Lynne out for the weekend. If I’d opted to go home, I’d have been arriving late on Friday and then…
Food 2017 – Alberto K, Copenhagen
Friday February 12th, 2017 – Alberto K, Radisson Blu Royal, Copenhagen Although not normally a big fan of hotel restaurants (they can swing wildly in my experience between averagely bland to downright horrible, and are usually overpriced, the Radisson Blu Royal’s sister-hotel in Copenhagen, the Scandinavia, being a case in point) this didn’t stop me…
Food 2017 – Galvin at the Athenaeum, London
Saturday, 14th January 2017 – Galvin at the Athenaeum, London Partly to celebrate my birthday a couple of days previous t0 the event, partly because we had a Groupon to use, Lynne and I spent the afternoon at the theatre (at the Royal Court Theatre, seeing “The Children”) and then headed off down towards Picadilly…
Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 4
Thursday 12th January, 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 4 British Airways while I was away introduced their new “improved” cabin service. Now while I will grant that the ham and cheese croissant I was offered on the way out was a long way from gourmet food, it was at least included in the price of my…
Food 2016 – Moro, London
Saturday, 17th December 2016 – Moro, Exmouth Market, London After a visit to Sadler’s Wells, which is not exactly the most central of London’s theatres, it’s become almost a tradition for us to go to the splendid Moro for an early dinner. Well, if you can call three times a tradition. I think you probably…
Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 4
Monday, December 6th 2016 – Berlin And so for our final day in Berlin. We’d packed, left our bags in our room courtesy of the late checkout option, and had one last breakfast care of the Club Intercontinental (not too much, we were booked for lunch at the Reichstag later in the day) and so…
Food 2016 – Neni and the Marlene Bar, Berlin
Sunday, December 5th 2916 – Neni, 25, Berlin and Marlene Bar, Intercontinental Hotel, Berlin Dinner on the final night stood in remarkable contrast in many ways to the two restaurants that went before. Neni, in the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin, provides equally good food, again in an hotel restaurant, but the style is completely different,…
Food 2016 – Käfer Dachgarten, Berlin
Monday, 5th December 2016 – Käfer Dachgarten, The Reichstag, Berlin Lunch at the Reichstag served two purposes for us, enabling us to jump the queue to go up the Dome, and also making sure we didn’t need to bother about food for the rest of the day as we travelled home in the evening. The…
