I think I've been to Beijing Dumpling more times than I have to any other restaurant in London! Thrice. And that's saying a lot, given I'm one of those people who firmly believes that life's too short in proportion to the amount of good food there is to try in this world, to go to the same place twice. But I adore Beijing Dumpling, so there you'll find me, every few months. Besides, I really like the vibe in Chinatown - always so festive.

Eating out in London
I've walked past CJ's Cafe almost everyday for the last 3 years and I've never noticed it. Bizarre, I know. I like to tell myself, however, that maybe it hasn't been there for 3 years. I shall find out the next time I visit. I'm definitely going back. Not just because the food was great, the service friendly, and the whole ambience chilled out, but because it's 2 minutes from home.
My husband and I take golf lessons over the weekend (learning to play golf opens up our holiday options a fair bit we realised a while ago, so here were are!), so every Sunday we find ourselves in Chiswick, hungry. This weekend being the Ride London bike event, we landed up on Chiswick High Road on a Saturday. Just as well, Kisaku it turns out is closed on Sunday!
Two guys, a girl, and a steak house. An old old friend's annual trip to London means that the three of us, my husband, him, and I catch up for a massive help-i-can't-move-anymore meal at a restaurant that I pick. Why do I get to choose? They couldn't be bothered where we're going so long as the portions are large and meaty, and well, I have a list I'd like to check off.
I had about forty-five minutes yesterday afternoon between getting to my train station and getting on the train, so I decided to stop by Portuguese restaurant Tuga for lunch.
