Restaurant review : Balthazar, london

What's the curbappeal?
- the classic European brasserie interior: art deco lights, brass fixings, red booth seats and tiled floor.
- the dilemma?  London already has lots of similar restaurants and they're excellent: the Wolseley, the Delaunay and Colbert (to name a few) are my favourites. 
- does it live up to the hype? Unfortunately not, the interior feels  overly-contrived and the quality of the food is average to poor. I had to send back my flat white  because the coffee was burnt. My poached eggs were just OK (quite watery in texture  if I'm being critical).

Sorry but I won't be back

Greenberry Cafe, Primrose Hill, London

What's the curbappeal?
- picture windows & the patio overlook beautiful Regents Park Road
- all day brasserie dining (with a delightful twist)

Securing a table can be a challenge: it's the latest place to be in Primrose Hill. But it's worth the wait!
