Brawn

I was meaning to go this new tapas restaurant; Brawn (http://www.brawn.co) on Colombia road for a month but I couldn't book a table couple of times. Finally I had a chance to go there. I went with a friend from Paris. We have a lot to catch up. Starting with Maldon oysters.

Sourdough Bread is also delicious

This was my favorite dish of the day; Fried artichokes and Aioli

Pork Rillette; it's lard. very intresting.

Leek Gratin

Foie Gras & Puy Lentils

We really enjoyed every single dish. Brawn will be one of my favorite restaurant now. So many dish I like to try!

Toad-in-the-Hole

I had no idea what is Toad in the hole.

It was sausages in Yorkshire pudding butter hole! A very traditional English dish at The Horse and Groom (http://www.horseandgroom.uk.com)

From Daylesford farm

I went to Daylesford farm(http://www.daylesfordorganic.com) in Gloucestershire. Their award winning Cheddar cheese is one of my favorite English cheese. Also I'm big fan of their meat, specially their lamb. Even if you don't like lamb, maybe this lamb could change whole idea about lamb. They also have Plimico shop and Notting hill shop.

Mid night pleasure

Not so many Chinese restaurant is friendly and good service specially in a midnight but here Mayflower in Soho is. Also food is very high standard and tasty.

It had been while since Sushi-hiro became part of Atariya. Still all good part of sushi-hiro remain; reasonable, fresh, good quality. Nothing fancy but simply good sushi. It's one of the restaurant i never get tired of.

Smell of sweet

My flatmate was baking bear cokies today. Smell of baking is always make me happy. Such a warm feeling.

Odette's

Today is a Chinese new year, apparently I shouldn't wash any dishes today, so it's better to eat out. I went to Odette's Restaurant & Bar in Primrose Hill (http://www.odettesprimrosehill.com). Restaurant served us this warm white chocolate mousse, cold blackberries inside as complimentary. Contrast between warm and cold, sweet and sour sweet was very good.
