I went to a little restaurant in Streatham called K&S Reign. I was a bit put off due to the location. However once I got there I was very suprised. Its a little gem. The staff are very friendly. The place looks natural and feels warm. The food tasted fresh and has allot of flavour. The price is OMG SUCH GOOD VALUE, for what your getting. The music was great, allot of multi cultural music, Great fun. relaxed, nice outside area defo going again

A group of us went to Zain's Grill Restaurant in Mile end; we had been there before while we were students at QMW University, it was surprising to see that what was a pub had been converted to a Restaurant and Grill house that does not serve alcohol at all. We were reluctant to dine without drinking but the waiter convinced us to try the food and be kind to our livers for the evening. WHAT A PLESANT SURPRISE, We were spoilt for choice, the menu had dishes like grilled Quails to Grilled Sea bass and Lamb Shank. The staff were extremely helpful in deciding what to eat. We ordered some Non Alcoholic Mocktails which were really very good. One of my friends had to have her regular "chicken Korie" with rice and Nan which she described as being "one of the best meals ever"
I ordered Salmon Gujouns for starters, Grilled Sea bass with Couscous, the food was sensational and the portions very generous, I was too full to have any dessert.
My other two friends were just as pleased with their meals. The owner of the restaurant spoke with us and we learnt that Zain's is named after his son who is only six years old; it’s a family run restaurant. I must say that the service was very warm and friendly and a menu so vast I shall be going back to try some other dishes, no doubt my friends will also be going.
It is hard to say if Zain's in an Indian restaurant or Grill restaurant or a Steak House; whatever it is the food and service is excellent and I would recommend anyone to try, its near Mile End Station (out the station and walk towards the right towards Bow).

As a managing director of as leading hotel and restaurant in the lake district and also an ex corporate senior manager of senior hotels hyatt in middle east, Princess hotels in Bermuda and 12 happy years at the Savoy it was refreshing to have booked and dined in a memorable restaurant, Moti Mahal in Covent Garden. We had the pleasure of booking a table on Friday 23rd March which was just going to be a normal night out but turned into a truly exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The level of service is attentive but not rushed, the product knowledge from the staff shows their passion for their job and we were able to look in to see the chefs preparing their exquisite dishes. We both had two of their set menus, mine being on the meat and fish selection and my wife with the vegetarian each accompanied by fine wines. The different course that came matched and exceeded each other, it was very hard to pick which one we enjoyed most as they were all delectable. We were able to interact with each other’s set menus and it certainly became a banquet. With all the hotels I have worked at top outlets of the Asian varieties and I must say that this certainly is up there with them whereabouts I would say they are world innovators and leaders in a very highly competitive London restaurant market where people are demanding and expect exceptional service.

I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough.

A brand-new Argentinian restaurant opened in Camden Town last week. Called La Patagonia (31 Camden High Street, NW1 7JE, it was already packed on Sunday lunchtime even though its website isn't even ready yet. Most of the Argentian restaurants that have been opened in the last five years have a family tree that stretched back to the first real Argentinian restaurant, Santa Maria del Buen Ayre in Broadway Market. This one doesn't and is the nearest thing to a real Buenos Aires Restaurant in that it doesn't just offer steaks (even though they are very good), but also Milanesas (escalopes of beef and chicken), pasta with some incredible sauces you won't have seen elsewhere, and Al Horno, dishes cooked in a clay oven.

And the smart and authentic Red Hot formerly Snazz Sichuan at 37 Charlton Street, just off Euston Road does good authentic Sichuan food. - It's in Michelin...

Hi

We had a couple of people in a few weeks back who said they were reviewers for Time Out, but haven't seen us on the site yet - if a review isn't on its way, can we recommend ourselves? We are I Made It For You, a new tea house on Pitfield Street in Hoxton, serving Allpress Coffee, Postcard Teas, and cakes, bread, and British and Irish food from our tiny open kitchen. We would love to help with info, photos etc if that would help, so please do get in touch.

Thanks

Tom
