The displays of all the fresh sourdough breads, pastries, cakes, salads and quiches in the front of this cafe are very attractive. Each corner of the display has big baskets of meringues! But again, this is one of those cafes where all the food is not covered and it is open to all the customers…

Rossopomodoro – Covent Garden
This Neapolitan restaurant is situated on the premises where the former sushi eatery Gili Gulu used to be! Rossopomodoro’s menu is quite extensive ranging from the usual pizzas, pastas, salads to fried pizzas, grills and a selection of starters. We were quite impressed with the quality of the food the first time we ate at…
Bella Italia – Whiteleys Bayswater
Walk straight past the crowded open area of Starbucks in Whiteleys and head to the calmer Bella Italia for your coffee break! There is plenty of seating inside or out on the terrace. The decor had that warming rustic feel to it! The tea was served by the pot and there was definitely enough for…
Veritas Wine Bar and Bistro – Banbury
This bistro had a really nice feel to it as soon as we entered. There were a few different seating areas including the window seats with cosy cushions. A nice place to relax and enjoy food and drink.

There is plenty of seating, lots of food, drinks and snacks to choose from. The staff are friendly…
Aagrah – Shipley
Aagrah is an Indian restaurant spread over two floors. The upper floor is the buffet area and the ground floor is where you can order off the normal menu. For starters, we ordered the Aagrah special tandoori mix and the Aagrah special vegetable mix. The tandoori mix consisted of lamb chops, seekh kebab, chicken tikka…
Poseidon Fish Restaurant – East Finchley
You can tell the excellent quality of the fish at Poseidon. I was impressed that they specialised in 20 varieties of fish and that you have the option of either having it fried in groundnut oil and matso flour or you can have the healthier grilled option. We asked if we could have the mussels…
