La Brasserie

My favourite place to have a casual yet delicious meal in London.  Love the retro dining room as well.
Asparagus served warm with hollandaise sauce (£8.90).
Escagots with garlic and parsley sauce (£10.20).
Duck confit with potato gratin (£17.90).
Steak tartare with fries (£21.50).  Once again we left very happy with full tummies.  We are looking forward to our next visit already!

Zizzi Restorante

A quick lunch stop at Zizzi, a UK chain Italian restaurant with some eighty branches across the country.  The branch we went to was at Finchley Road.  We didn't expect much but it didn't disappoint.  Our quattro stagioni pizza (£8.95) and carne piccante calzoni (£9.95) were reasonably tasty and service was good.  The place seemed spotlessly clean and bright - a good reliable choice for a quick stop!
