My blogging has been put on the back burner lately, as I am frantically trying to finish up coursework before the end of term … but also, I have been cheating on my blog a little since I started writing for the food section of our student newspaper. It seems like the dream job I have been waiting for, combining two of the things I love the most: eating and writing. All my course mates are jealous. “Do you really get to eat at restaurants for free?! And you get to bring a friend with you???” Suddenly, everyone wants to be my plus one. Recently, I reviewed the Broadway Bar & Grill in Fulham, which you can read about here. I also reviewed Brasa, a fancy restaurant above the Broadway, and hopefully that article will be coming out soon. And last but not least, I wrote a highly authoritative piece on eating curry. So if you’ve missed me and my ramblings, go get your fix!
Now, just to tease you … a few photos of the wonderful (and free) dishes I’ve been eating during my recent restaurant-critic adventures. Enjoy the food porn.
Veal Chop. @Brasa
Grilled Fennel. @Brasa
Galloway fillet. @Brasa
On the left: a dessert with possibly the longest name ever: Cardamom Poached Pumpkin with Smoked Chestnuts, Chocolate Ice Cream and Candid Clementines.
On the right: Baked Chocolate Tart with Blackberry Sorbet.
This whole dessert combo was better than sex, I swear. Or, let me correct that, better than most sex. Of course, a few glasses of Pinot Grigio were the perfect foreplay for it …
@Brasa
Fish & Chips. Or, to be precise, Real Ale Battered Haddock with Chips and Pea Puree.
@Broadway Bar & Grill
Apple crumble, which actually wasn’t that nice … If the dessert above was better than sex, this felt more like … a duty visit to the in-laws. Not that I have any in-laws, and maybe one day my in-laws will be nice? Basically, it just wasn’t cooked enough and felt quite heavy in my stomach afterwards.

Linguine with meatballs. Nice, but too big for my tummy!
