Never? Well it's a long list to go through...<br /><br />Laura - sorry, I should have mentioned that we were in the basement restaurant. Glad to hear you liked Anchor & Hope!<br /><br />Shayma - Thanks. I find it really hard to write about wine so it's appreciated. I was eating sushi from a very young age so I didn't see the problem with steak tartare!<br /><br />Mr Noodles - I highly recommend it. <br /><br />LF - If I worked nearby I think I would be constantly eating those anchovies for lunch...<br /><br />Fillyerboots - that's true - it was great. Much nicer than any other natural wines I've had.<br /><br />A forkful - we were very happy indeed!<br /><br />Boo - It was very cosy inside, I can see how it can be sweltering in the summer. <br /><br />Jonathan - it's perfect for parents.<br /><br />Graphic Foodie - I really must visit Dehesa!<br /><br />The Shed - glad to hear it! Do let us know what you thought. <br /><br />Amedy - it was great.<br /><br />LexEat - I had a very food-filled childhood, much like yours. Definitely up to standards!<br /><br />Tom - I haven't been to Comptoir Gascon, I'll put it on the list. The Asti was delicious.Hollow Legshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152329184111658897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-20782712810155904542010-01-31T16:43:31.548+00:002010-01-31T16:43:31.548+00:00Oh god you are making me hungry.

Always end up going for the wonderful wine and charcuterie at Terroirs, and a gazpacho I had there in the summer was outstanding. Clam dish was a bit too salty last time I was there, though. Great post.<br />Just had a wonderful meal at a packed Anchor & Hope. Very 'St John', and very good.
