Not the first (and probably not the last) Vapiano outlet to open in London, but the new Wardour Street location of this global restaurant group with its fast casual take on serving freshly made Italian cuisine was worthy of a visit and my recommendation. Continue reading →

Pizza Union, Super Fast and Budget Friendly Pizza in Spitalfields

Posted on 2014-05-17 by tikichris

Kemey and I dropped by for a midweek early evening dinner at new(ish)ly opened Pizza Union near Liverpool Street for a taste of its “fire-baked” and “super fast” stone oven pizzas. And? We were pleased with this all day pizza bar’s no nonsense approach to offering customers something tasty and quick at a great price. Continue reading →

Tasty Tales from the Italian Ham Highway: a-MuSe-ing and Bubbly Trento

Posted on 2013-12-08 by tikichris

After an all too short sojourn in Friuli (God, I hope I make it back there before too long), I hit the autostrada heading west to the region of Trentino for an overnight stay to see what sort of wonders its scenic city of Trento had to offer. With a newly opened museum designed by a star architect; a distinctive sparkling wine with a rich tradition behind it; and an exquisite regional gastronomy that’s big on flavour, locally sourced ingredients and seasonality – the answer I soon discovered was A LOT!

Sweet Thursday: De Beauvoir Town Pizzeria Pleases Any Day of the Week

Posted on 2013-08-15 by tikichris

Sweet Thursday is a new(ish) pizzeria and wine shop in De Beauvoir Town. The shop’s unusual name pays homage to a novel by John Steinbeck. Look it up. As far as I’m concerned the Sweet Thursday folks could call their friendly establishment Sour Monday, and I’d still rave about it. The pizzas are proper and the atmosphere ideal for a casual meal any day of the week. Continue reading →

Mozzarella di Buffalo (buffalo milk mozzarella) has become something of a celebrated cheese in London lately with new mozzarella bars opening and fine dining establishments featuring it prominently on their menus.

Venerdi (Blue Tomato)

Posted on 2013-04-08 by tikichris

The pizzas coming out of the oven during my recent lunch at Venerdi were just those sort of ideal Neapolitan style pies: crisp outer crust with a slightly soupy interior. Nothing fancy. Just right. What I had for my lunch certainly met my palate’s preferences and exceeded my wishful expectations. If I’d had my Venerdi pizza while in Italy it wouldn’t have tasted out of place.

Venerdi, a Very Welcome New Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant on Chatsworth Road, E5

Posted on 2013-04-03 by tikichris

Not quite two months old, there’s nothing particularly fancy or especially novel about Venerdi (well, aside from the half of a Fiat 500 mortared into the restaurant’s interior back wall) – just a superb selection of pizzas, pastas and classic Italian comfort food dishes. The vibe is friendly, as are the servers and even the patrons (an all-ages cross section of pleasant local yocal types). Continue reading →

A Pizza the Action at Fire & Stone (Blue Tomato)

Posted on 2013-03-19 by tikichris

Blue Tomato recently joined in a tasting panel to help Fire & Stone pizzerias decide which of an assortment of pizzas to add to its menu. The restaurant group – with three locations in Central London as well as an outlet each in Oxford and Portsmouth – developed the range of six pizzas based upon some original ‘retired classics’ from past menus, with the aim of narrowing down the list to only two pizzas.
