Well it’s very quiet at this time of year in London i.e. I’ve got no-one to go out with. I had an abortive lunch at Bocca Di Lupo, Piccadilly which I really want to go to as it’s had great reviews and is THE place to go at the moment. Lieutenant No.1 went there and…

Gillray’s Steakhouse & Bar is in the London Marriott Hotel County Hall. The website says “We serve the best Aberdeen Angus steak sourced from English farms accompanied by the highest quality service.” We haven’t been there yet but from the photos it looks very stylish and we’ve managed to find out that their disabled access is brilliant too.
