"Website is deceiving, and does not show the reality. The website is beautifully designed, and visually opulent giving the impression of a large, plush interior. The menus included brunch, main, dessert and drinks. The actual restaurant is very small cafe, with extended outside seating, with a few staff members lounging around. Arriving for lunch at 12 noon, the whole place was empty, and booking was unnecessary. The staff were disinterested in our arrival. We had to seat ourselves. Seating was comfortable. When asking for a menu, were told to scan a QR code on the table, and when trying to order from the main menu, was told that only the brunch menu was available. The smoked salmon and scrambled egg dish was nicely done and tasty. The ice tea was overly sweet, but the coffee was decent. It was clearly a Muslim eating place, posing as an European restaurant, with the name 'Boulevard '. That Friday, a crowd of Muslim men from the nearby mosque in Regent 's Park came in after prayers. They were treated differently, excitedly welcomed. It was clearly their regular haunt. It felt like an eating place for Muslims, where non-Muslims were not particularly welcomed. However, the other customers were friendly, and more polite than the staff. It was quiet and easy to talk, until the crowd arrived. Overall, the price for the meal was not worth the experience of eating there. Service charge was included, although service was bad. We would not go back."

"With health and wellness being at the top of the foodie agenda once again, my search for amazing health food cafes in London suddenly got a lot easier. I even saw an article about green juice on the Daily Mail the other day- talk about mainstream! And although I'm truly a newbie to this way of eating, I am (literally) hungry for more. Thus today I am sharing one of my newly found favourites: Maple Fitz At the launch of ClassPass in London at Barry's Bootcamp we were kindly fed post-workout by Maple Fitz. We indulged in fresh, tasty and healthful salads that gave us that post-sweat pick me up in style. If you've never heard of them then get yourself down to their Fitzrovia store ASAP! Maple Fitz specialises in healthy, honest and whole foods. Everyday salads are made fresh and served up with optional extras such as chicken, salmon or halloumi cheese. My favourites include the Mexican Bean Salad, the dairy free Caeser Kale Salad and the vibrant Red Cabbage Soba Noodle Salad. You can mix and match 3-5 salads to eat in or take away, then explore their yummy treat table for healthy but naughty goodies. Whilst enjoying your salad why not soak up more vitamins with a gorgeous juice. These too are freshly made and stored in the beverage fridge to grab and go. Last time I visited I went for the Little Miss Sunshine to wake me up. This features a delicious blend of orange, grapefruit, lime, ginger and cayenne pepper. Now if anything is going to shake off any post-night-out tiredness it's definitely this juice. Prices start at £6.95 for takeaway. Maple Fitz can be found at: 36A Berners St, Fitzrovia, London W1T 3LY"
