So, as promised we went back to the newly refurbished BFI Cafe. The original review from August 2008 can be seen here:

Yo Sushi – Brent Cross, Hendon
Yo Sushi is one of those places that I have seen all over the city but never managed to make a visit to it, that is until now. All of the seating is around the conveyor belt with the various dishes going round. You can also order individual hot dishes from the menu. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Addis – Kings Cross
When a friend of mine suggested going to an Ethiopian restaurant for a dinner get together, I realised that I knew absolutely nothing about Ethiopian cuisine. But I trusted my friend’s opinion, who told me that the food is “yummy”!
Giraffe – Brunswick Centre
The bright orange decor and the big wall sized pictures are striking when you go to Giraffe. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. It was great that the staff took the time to recommend dishes.
Tootsies – Brent Cross, Hendon
Tootsies had a nice selection of food on the menu ranging from salads, sandwiches, burgers to grills, so we thought that it would be a good place to go to. Initial impressions were that the staff were friendly and it seemed like quite a relaxed eatery. The soup of the day that we had was…
Victoria Tearooms – Saltaire
The entrance to Victoria Tearooms is shared with a bakery so you have to go down the spiral stairs to get to the actual tearooms. Once down there, it opens out into two rooms with a stone floor. The walls are decorated with old photographs and posters. It was a joy to look at all…
Strada – Angel
This restaurant felt quite dark even though we were seated near the windows and we were there at lunchtime. The staff came and asked us a few times, quite frequently, if we were ready to order. But then after that, when we were actually ready to give our order, we had to wait quite a while to get the attention of the staff.
Cafe Irie – Dublin
You’ll be able to spot Cafe Irie by its bright blue exterior. Going inside, the walls are brightly painted and the counter area reminded me of an old sweet shop.
Fakhreldine – Green Park
Deep reds and brown colours, sofas with lots of cushions, bowls of rose petals and a formal dining area sets the atmosphere for this Lebanese restaurant. The seating by the windows has a great view over Green Park.
