Restaurant review, Papa Panda, Ipswich: “I was pleasantly surprised ...

Review analysis
food   staff   desserts   drinks   facilities  

Instead of an open buffet (which always grosses me out) with the food exposed to the elements, each dish was enclosed in its own covered hot plate, with staff constantly checking them and replenishing their contents.

It’s just a minute away from the Ipswich Regent, being right across the road, making it a good quick choice for pre or post theatre bites.

Behind the theatre on the other side of the road is a small council car park that, if you can get in, is reasonable.

Or burn off dinner and park at the council’s New Portman Road car park, which is free after 8pm.

The shredded crispy beef for sure- but I think my children would say it was being able to dip fried egg sweets into the chocolate fountain!

Ukai – Sushi With Soul – restaurant review

Review analysis
food  

Portobello Road’s Ukai sushi restaurant was never going to the standard minimalist Japanese space that usually surrounds you while dining on delicately sliced sashimi.

The atmosphere here is relaxed, less of a formal restaurant, it feels more sociable than that with friendly attentive staff on hand to recommend or explain dishes.

Today was all about healthy living (the night before not so much) so ordered an orange and carrot juice – freshly blended and completely perfect for our Japanese feast.

After much deliberation we decided to start with the seabass ceviche in a spicy citrus sauce – perfectly pitched against the seaweed salad of wakame seaweed, nori, edamame beans, cucumber and ponzu with it’s rich deeper flavour and contrasting textures.

We then decided to go for a tapas approach and order a few dishes to share, get the most out of the menu – soft shell crab tempura with jalapeno mayo, mango and papaya salad with carrot, coriander, mint, peanut and red nahm jim sauce, tuna tataki – seared tuna with yuzo ponzu (lemony soy type sauce), a tuna and salmon platter of mixed sushi – sashimi/nigiri/hosomaki and the sashimi rose salad of seabass, tuna and baby spinach.

review of London French restaurant La Trompette by Andy Hayler in ...

Review analysis
staff   food   menu   value   drinks  

Example labels were Te Mata Gamay Noir 2015 at £39.50 for a wine that will you can find in the high street for £16, Mullineux Old Vines Syrah 2014 from Swartland at £65 compared to its retail price of £22, and By Farr Farrside Pinot Noir 2011 at £120 for a wine that will set you back £51 in a shop.

This was the best savoury dish, the deer carefully cooked and having plenty of flavour, the beetroot and turnips an earthy contrast, the acidity in the blackberries cutting nicely through the richness of the meat and its cooking juices (easily 16/20).

The bill, with some pleasant wine, came to £80 a head, the lunch itself being £35 each.

La Trompette remains a very enjoyable and reliable restaurant, with an appealing menu and pleasant environment, along with good service.

It offers particularly reasonable value for money at lunch, this being enhanced by its unusually fairly priced wine list.

108 Garage, Notting Hill: restaurant review | Foodism

Review analysis
food   menu  

It's technical, Michelin-baiting contemporary cooking in a reclaimed space that feels like a far cry from white tablecloths in a hushed dining room.

The small back bar serves up faithfully reproduced classic cocktails – other than that, there's a Breton cider on the menu, a handful of craft beers, and an expansive and thoughtful wine list, with about half available by the glass.

We opted for a Quinta da Calçada vinho verde – all crisp apple flavours and a hint of fizz, that saw us through head chef and co-owner Chris Denney's light, citrus-spiked menu.

There were stings of acidic fruit flavours to be found throughout the menu – rich, saline mackerel was pepped up by pickled pear, the chicken breast was served alongside zingy lemon curd, and monkfish came alive with the addition of zesty grapefruit.

Small plates from £3, five-course tasting menu at £55, wine from £5 by the glass.

Perilla, London N16: Restaurant Review - olive magazine

Review analysis
food   menu   location  

Housed on a trendy corner in North London in Newington Green – and with backing from industry big hitters Phil Howard of Elystan Street, Martyn Nail of Claridge’s and Thomas Kochs of Café Royal – Perilla’s got good foundations.

Brick walls have been stripped bare, the original yellow black terrazzo floor has been exposed, while the tall windows that wrap around its triangular frame look out onto the green and pour light onto wine cages and a mix of tactile wooden and marble-topped tables.

Just down from Green Lanes, famed for its Turkish restaurants, Perilla’s short but confident menu is a stark contrast for the area.

Hung yogurt, hiding amongst the florets, creamy and sharp, was rejoined by yogurt whey (separated during the straining), and little green blobs of yet more broccoli, puréed with garlic, onion and seaweed.

A grilled “pluma” of pork was daringly pink and all the juicier for it, and refreshingly partnered with parcels of hispi cabbage, stuffed with tangy sauerkraut and little pockets of pork liver parfait delivering yet more savoury goodness.
