Jamon Jamon Soho

Famous for Tapas & Paella - Spanish Restaurant in Soho, Camden, Belsize Park, Islington

Jamon Jamon | Bar de Tapas & Paella

The word Jamon, pronounced “yamon”, means ham in Spanish, and if there is one thing the Spanish are crazy about, it is good Jamon.

In Spain, Jamons are traditionally made in local family farmhouses.

Well, in Spain, if something is good, then two of it must be superb, and the call Jamon Jamon has come to mean just this in the colloquial Spanish dialect.

To the Spanish, Jamon Jamon speaks of vigour and the passion for life.

Not surprisingly then that this was the theme for Bigas Luna’s 1992 film Jamon Jamon about the age-old tale of forbidden love, set in the dusty plains of Spain where the locals dream of hormone-fuelled passion and bull-fighting.

Jamon Jamon - Soho, 2 For 1 Discount Meals | tastecard

Review analysis

We went on a December Tuesday evening, because not too many places accept the TasteCard in December and we have always wanted to try some tapas.

There is a good selection of vegetarian dishes and salads for those who want to avoid deep-fried or meat dishes.

I agree with other reviewers taht the portion size is generous, so three tapas per person will be satisfying for average eaters.

(I often think that a clean and tidy bathroom is a good indicator of how much attention the owners have given to the restaurant and customer experience.)

The bill came up to £35 (6 tapas, 2 breads, 2 non-alcoholic drinks, including services).
