"The latter is their breezy Italian spot that took over the old Pizza East site on Portobello Road; and on the second and third floors above that restaurant you'll find The Fat Badger. The second floor is more of a pub, with pints and live music, while the third floor is the sit down restaurant and open kitchen headed up by chef George Williams."
"On our August visit, we started with a lovely cold tomato soup, topped with cucumber and white crab and served with freshly baked soda bread. Then, a mini raw beef tostada with celeriac and bone marrow; a sweetbread taco (a highlight of the snacks) with hot sauce butter; and the scallop toast, done like a very deluxe prawn toast, and absolutely sublime."
"First of the mains was a fillet of John Dory with brown shrimp and sweetcorn, which was then followed by a huge platter of beef fillet to share - thick slices of perfectly cooked beef, girolle mushrooms, béarnaise sauce, and horseradish. This nearly finished us off, but we just about came around for two mini desserts: a grape tart with creme France and a superb ricotta doughnut with blackcurrant ripple ice cream."
