Whispers from the chair . .

G recommended OMA in Borough for Greek inspired dishes and chic, minimalistic interiors. Downstairs you’ll find Agora, a ‘souvla bar’, mostly walk-ins here, although they release a limited number of bookings 2 weeks ahead and a couple of good value set menus, perfect for group celebrations of 10+.

K was chatting about Spring St Pizza, a tribute to the iconic pizzerias of NYC. There’s wine and soft serve on the menu too and it’s just down the road from Borough.

Closer to home, Base Face Pizza has opened in Richmond on kew Road. I previously visited the Barnes branch and it was very good, so happy to have one in our neighbourhood!

A number of clients have been using the food intolerance testing kit by Supply Life to help diagnose digestion issues, I generally don’t suffer too much with digestive health but out of sheer curiosity I am now intrigued!

To read the rest, including the best restaurants and dishes I’ve enjoyed lately, where’s on my radar next, what’s been going in my shopping basket and tasty tips and titbits, you’ll need a paid subscription.
