"another london noble stone! our meal times at the new foley’s, after having previously enjoyed the shepherd’s Bush popup in its very early days and despite some service problems, and of course palomar, where the cook worked before and nailed at all fronts. I would normally have liked to sit at the theke around the cellar kitchen that seems the main square for duo food, but given the rather hot London day was happy to sit on a cooler table for two close by. Beverage menu seemed to be fine, not to taste the cocktails, but enjoyed the pale ale I had, and the wee at the glass were useful. eating is really great. quite strangely, it leads the galm of Japanese/Korean/Southeast Asia/Indian to the more anticipated Middle East/Mediterranean. from this reason, I recommend to devote the food just as it comes. While I tried to couple some of the amazing Middle Eastern spiced aubergine with granatapfel, feta, et al to couple with later directed, there was obviously no chance with the oktopus / Black-Mano, and not even so much synergy with the lamb / hummus dress. all the dishes were deliciously bold in their own right and best enjoyed individually. it seems to fly under the radar in fitzrovia, as well as the popup, without big presses, which I have noticed so far what is good for diners. maybe those who can't get a place in palomar? book them!"
