This review of a Madrid restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. One of the pleasures of dining in other countries is that you get to try cuisines underrepresented or entirely absent from London.

The Salt Yard review – The best tapas in Fitzrovia?

Of the few that there are, there’s the overrated and underwhelming mini-chain Bodean’s and … Continue reading
Mile End Delicatessen review – A Montreal Jewish deli in Brooklyn
This review of a New York restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage. There’s no shortage of Jewish restaurants and cafes in New York, but the Mile End Delicatessen is a little different as it’s billed as a ‘Montreal Jewish delicatessen’, although I’m not sure how that differs from the traditional … Continue reading
