A British Classic

30 Hawley Crescent
London
NW1 8NP

Another wet, windy and worriedly cold day in the capital calls for one type of cuisine - COMFORT FOOD. Britain is iconic for its dishes dunked in oil or buried in butter before it hits the china. As well as this, when the temperature is at a high of 2 degrees, a light dinner just won’t suffice. So what better than a good ol’  fish and chips to seal the deal?

Pesci Pick of the Week

Wasabi
Salmon Teriyaki
£6.25

Being a pescatarian (a noun used to describe a person who only eats fish as their main source of protein), I am often questioned on how difficult it is finding food on the go. 

Something Sketchy...

Sketch
9 Conduit Street
London, W1S 2XG

Overpriced and undercooked.

When dining, it is easy to fall for what psychologists refer to as the ‘Halo Effect’ whereby a positive impression in one area is generalized to an object/person/venues entirety. We very nearly made this mistake with Sketch. 

A Good Ol' Pub Lunch

Magpie Pub
2 New St, London EC2M 4TP
020 7929 3889

With a lot on the schedule this Saturday, we decided to kill a number of birds with one stone. Heading down to Liverpool Street anyway, we decided to work away from home for a change and see what hidden treasures the city had to offer.

Hungry, tired and slightly pushed for time females makes a seriously unproductive combination so we had to find somewhere ... Fast!

Its The Simple Things….

Simply Fish
Shoreditch Boxpark, Units 42-43
2-4 Bethnal Green Rd. E1 6JU
020 7613 4440

Located above the infamous Boxpark in Shoreditch, the options at this restaurant were plentiful; from the option to dine inside or outside (if the sun ever really decides to come out), to have your fish pan fried, grilled, deep fried, or baked. What's life without choices?

Greeted and seated immediately, Simply Fish is a small enclosed roof top restaurant has a fresh, sea breeze feel, with light décor and soft lighting resembling almost a beach hut. A great contrast from last weeks trip to ChickenShop . Similarly though, Simply Fish has an open kitchen to which we sat next to.
