Hakubai review – a beautiful taste of Japan in New York
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. During my most recent visit to New York, I stayed at the Kitano Hotel which is, as far as I know, the only Japanese-owned hotel in the Big Apple. Many of the things at the hotel are designed … Continue reading
Where to find the best Flat White coffee in London
Where can you find the best flat white coffee in London? I risk overdosing on caffeine by sampling 21 different versions to find out. I’m an incurable caffeine addict and my favourite poison is definitely coffee. My favourite type of coffee is the flat white and I wholly blame The Lensman for introducing me to … Continue reading
Danji review – Korean food tapas-style
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. There are a depressingly large number of mediocre chain restaurants in and around New York’s Times Square, but there are some interesting independent eateries near that iconic location if you’re prepared to look around. Danij is a Korean … Continue reading
Motorino review – brussel sprouts? On a pizza?!
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. Of all the cuisines available in New York, pizza must seem like the most unimaginative one to try out. The Big Apple’s pizzas are reputed to especially good though and I happened to pass by Motorino in the … Continue reading
St Anselm review – grills and thrills
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. St Anslem is slightly unusual due to a combination of both its menu and location. Almost every savoury dish at this dimly-lit Brooklyn restaurant is grilled on a large gas-fired appliance, from meat and vegetables to seafood. It’s … Continue reading
Num Pang review – Cambodian sandwiches in the Big Apple
This review of a New York eatery is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. The vast majority of the eateries reviewed on this blog are proper restaurants with full-service tables. Num Pang is a rare exception to this informal rule since it’s the only place I’ve ever heard of, either in New … Continue reading
Baohaus review – buns with puns
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. For most people, Chinese food means noodles, fried rice, roast duck and maybe Dim Sum. There’s much more to it than just that of course, and one of the under appreciated gems is the humble bao – steamed … Continue reading
Hill Country review 2 – New York BBQ still as good as ever?
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. Barbecue specialist Hill Country was one of the culinary highlights of my previous visit to New York, setting the standard by which I judge all other barbecue restaurants. I was therefore excited by the opportunity to visit the … Continue reading
M. Wells review – a diner like no other
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. Behind all the nice photographs and cheesy jokes, this blog has just two primary objectives. The first is to show you what a glorious time I’m having eating my round around London and the wider world! The second … Continue reading
Dinner by Heston Blumenthal review – overrated?
Is it really as good as everyone says it is? Celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal needs no introduction for anyone who has even a casual interest in restaurants – the man is everywhere from numerous TV programs to even the front page of the Daily Mail. I’ve been chomping at the bit to try out his … Continue reading
