Restaurant & Bar Reviews

Another must see in L.A.I don’t really get this place. Looks like my grandmothers front room and not really the friendliest of greeters.

The place does have some history though.

When we did get seated even though we were told we may be removed in an hour the surrounding were pleasant enough.

Had a great bottle of champagne which nearly took up the hour on our meter, but thankfully we finished before we were forcibly removed.

A lot of famous people have stayed here and some have actually ended their party here.

Not somewhere where I shall rush back but the guy getting us a cab was great.

The Spare Room is an exclusive small bar located within the fabled Hotel Roosevelt in West Hollywood.

This unique bar features 2 bowling lanes which actually seem to blend in with the very swanky decor.

The main feature of the bar are the cocktails.

This was the drink of choice Amoxycillin. Not for faint hearted.

Of course if cocktail are not your thing they do have Chimay.

This really is a very cool place with one of the coolest soundtracks that I have heard in a while. Reservations are needed after 9pm.

Hanway Place houses the original Hakkasan in London.
Situated just off Oxford Street do not let the slightly dodgey surroundings put you off . When you enter this underground restaurant you will be whisked away to a totally different world.

The restaurtant serves modern Chinese
Cuisine and has a Michelin star. I have no idea what the following photos are but can testify that it was all delicious.

The atmosphere is very cool even though it is supposed to be an old style setting.

This place is not cheap but definitely worth a visit.

Another one of my favorite hang- outs in Montreal

On my last visit I spent a lot of time perched at this bar working on the development of the Supershag Empire

The restaurant is very grand but I have never felt out of place in my jeans and t-shirt.

The food is great. The bread is brill.

I always have a latte in a large bowl with a straw and Jamesons . The perfect Beefoe latte. The one that I had here was so good that I forgot to take a photo.so here is the chicken club.

Salmon was pretty good as well.

Always worth a visit.

Cavalli is located on Peel Street in the heart of downtown Montreal . This restaurant actually turns into a club at 11.pm on a Saturday night.

The place is very swanky and the ambience and music are obviously very club like.

We brought a large group so we sampled a lot of food.

Tuna tartar was excellent.

As was the salmon .

Octopus also got 2 thumbs up.

Sea bass main course was fantastic.

Filet mignon was ordered rare nut arrived almost medium.

Swordfish and clams were excellent.

Tuna looked great and tasted ok as well.

Otto is the restaurant in the W hotel Montreal

Stopped off here for lunch this time. Before I had only been for dinner.Plonked myself at the bar and proceeded to work ear and drink for the next 4 hours.

Started with the spinach salad. Really good . Followed with the lamb burger which once again was great.

Now I have to admit the level of sevice in Montreal is good but this was off the scale. The young lady who served us was a wealth of information. She was full of ideas of where I should visit to get the complete Montreal experience . Her colleague was a Liverpool supporter so he could do no wrong.

Deffo worth a visitMake a reservation

Le Globe,the first restaurant I can actually remember visiting in Montreal in the mid 90s.(my god that was in the last century)

If you want a really cool ambience this is the place to go.

The beautiful people of Montreal cam be seen here. (though they did let Pee Wee in)

Back in my formative years in Liverpool Sapporo was the full hit. (that means good ). So of course they serve it here, not in the non descript bottles but these great designer cans.

Jamiroquai on the play list what more can you ask for.
Ah food that is the reason we are here. Well I have to report that it was excellent . The venison and beef tartar starters were excellent. The steak main course was fantastic. The gluten and diary free salmon was described as the best ever. Just pay this place a visit. It is brill.
