Wendy's Baked Potatoes (Jacket Potatoes)

Seriously, the jacket potatoes are insane and the chilli and cheese will only set you back at £3.89.
Probably the cheapest loaded jacket you can get especially in London.
I got this late at night so I thought because it was the end of the day the potato was uniformly soft and fluffy.
The chilli was amazing and tasty with two types of beans kidney and pinto.
No wonder there are many recipes for Wendys chilli online.
Anyway just to confirm the baked potatoes were good, I went back in the afternoon and got a different filling.
To my delight the potato was again uniformly soft and fluffy.
It is really hard to find uniformly soft and fluffy baked potatoes these days from cafes and definitely not under a fiver for ones with filling.
Well done Wendys.

The Worlds Best Lobster Roll at Homer Lobster

Homer Lobster from Paris has popped up at Truffle Burger, South Bank until 15th June.
They claim to serve the World's Best lobster so I had to give it a try.
Overall, it delivered, fresh springy lobster with burst of lime rind here and there complimented by the chives.

Crepes at La Petite Bretagne

La Petite Bretagne, a lovely creperie serving proper Brittany style buckwheat crepes with apple cider.
The Campagnarde was really tasty however the frangipane wasn't to die for like the menu said but still nice.
I thought the almond cream was going to be lighter.
It interesting how they have interlocked the cutlery in the tin.

Yorkshire Burritos in Camden

Self-paid Yorkshire Burrito wrap. (Visited in 2022)
Ever since Yorkshire wraps were invented, I have always wanted to try them.
Finally tried my first one from Yorkshire Burrito.
There are three places where you can get them, so I decided to go to Camden for it.
My visit was not wasted because it tasted amazing, so I have been kicking myself why I didn't try earlier.
Instead of roast beef slices, it was braised tender pulled brisket with spinach leaves, stuffing and roast potatoes and of course GRAVY.
Every bite from the beginning to end was amazing.
The black peppercorn gravy really married everything together.
The spinach leaves were functional as well as delicious because it acted as a lining so that the gravy doesn't make the Yorkshire soggy, and it has this lovely substantial leafy taste and texture.
The only thing I did not like which was consistently same for all branches were the roast potatoes.
I found them too dry and powdery like ready meal microwave potatoes.
They lacked roast potato taste and aroma as well as the crispy roast potato texture.
Overall, a must try especially the Camden branch where there are customers hence everything is guaranteed fresh and tasty.





Paid another visit in 2025 and they have now loaded mash pots where you have meat, mash topped with gravy in a pot.
I had the lamb pot and it was delicious.
The mash was good and then you have the meat and gravy.

Berefords Fish and Chips, a Nepalese Chippy

Nepalese and English Chippy at Beresford Fish and Chips.Dined here because it was an interesting fish and chip shop with a Nepalese twist in Greenwich.
There are quite a few Nepalese restaurants in the area which makes sense that this is Nepalese owned.
The fish and chips were not bad but tasty with salt and vinegar.
The chicken momos were ok but not well filled.
