🔽 Book review and notes 🔽
He's probably the most well known food critic in the UK, and definitely known for being brutally honest.
These are some of the reviews he's put on the Observer, but of bad restaurants; you know it's going to be a good one.
So yes he's known to be merciless, but after reading these reviews in this way, it just makes think, yes London is full of bad restaurants.
Not just bad food, but also bad at doing restaurants.
I don't know which is worse, bad food or bad restaurant, usually both come together though.
The reviews are from between 1999 and 2012, probably the worst period, too.
But has London got better?
Is it really worth all the money you'd have to spend?
And to give posh restaurants some space, kicking out the more simple and honest restaurants out of town?
I love London for the mix of food, but seriously, it shouldn't have become a fast food theme park of expensive food.
I hope this phase ends some time soon.
