Limited time offer while stocks last! I’m willing to travel far and wide in search of a good meal, but going south of the river can be a stretch even for me. This can be the only reason why I haven’t tried the burgers from Mother Flipper before now. This stand serves up some highly … Continue reading

Burger Breakout at The Old Crown review – chocolate and quince burgers
Crazy pub burgers near the British Museum Following my rather large roundup of 35 different burgers from 25 different independent eateries, I hadn’t expected to be back on the burger wagon so soon. I was tempted out of my self-imposed burger sabbatical by Burger Breakout, a new residency inside The Old Crown pub which lies … Continue reading
Where to find the best indie burgers in London
Beastly bountiful burger bonanza – 35 burgers from 25 burger joints tasted and compared When I last toured the burger eateries of London I concentrated exclusively on the chains and concluded that Byron was easily the best of the bunch. This time I turned my attention to some of the the independent burger joints in the capital, … Continue reading
Dach and Sons review – posh hot dogs arrive in Hampstead
Dogging near Hampstead Heath (sorry, cheap joke) Update April 2013 – this restaurant has now closed There might be a harsh slump ravaging the economy, but people still want to eat out – they just want to do it for less. One way for an enterprising restauranteur to cash in on this trend is to … Continue reading

Duke’s Brew and Que review – the best ribs in London? Not really.
American BBQ comes to Hackney Update August 2013 – newer, more up-to-date review published Barbecue restaurants are like buses – you wait ages for one to arrive and then two come along at once. Pitt Cue in Soho may be (deservedly) getting all the attention, but a lesser known BBQ joint called Duke’s has also … Continue reading

Hawksmoor Day part 2 – lunch at Seven Dials, Covent Garden
This review is part of Hawksmoorathon – three meals at three different Hawksmoors in one day The Seven Dials Covent Garden branch of Hawksmoor is perhaps my favourite of the three thanks to its elegant, iron colonnaded interior. It’s the one I visit most frequently since it’s actually located somewhere readily accessible, unlike the Spitalfields … Continue reading
Soho Joe review – cheap Soho pizzas and burgers
There are plenty of cheap restaurants in London, but low prices and high quality cooking don’t always go together. Although Soho Joe servers up burgers, pastas and a grab bag of other Italian dishes, its main selling point is its cheap pizzas. Soho Joe occupies what was once the site of the Dean Street branch … Continue reading
Which is the best posh burger chain in London?
Mickey D’s can go to hell Following my less-than-glowing review of Meatliqour, which generated a fair amount of debate on Twitter, I was asked by @londoneating which was my favourite London burger. The answer to that is simple – Hawksmoor. The succulence and depth of flavour found in their burgers is simply superb, the perfectly … Continue reading
Meatliqour review – why it’s heavily overrated
The burger restaurant that sticks out like a sore thumb As this blog approaches its first birthday, it’s only fitting that I give my opinion on Meatliqour, the successor to pop-up Meateasy which was the first restaurant ever reviewed here at The Picky Glutton. I was impressed by the labour-of-love burgers at Meateasy, but I’ve … Continue reading
Hawksmoor vs Burger and Lobster review – lobster roll head-to-head
Cheap lobster. In Mayfair?! I’ve spilled a lot of ink on this blog about lobster and one of the most enjoyable, but cheapest lobster meals I’ve had was the humble lobster roll at Luke’s Lobster in New York. As far as I know the only restaurants in London to serve the lobster roll are (comment … Continue reading
