Actually, they weren't all that bad, which is different because I'm not all that keen on Kebabs in England (the meat just doesn't come across all that well, and they don't have HSPs either). It wasn't bad though, and neither was the price. Sure, I probably won't go for another kebab, but compared to the other places I have been to, this is cool.

The Albertine has been one of the best things in Shepherds Bush for as long as I can remember. I…read morehadn't actually been for a couple of years and was pleasantly surprised that nothing much has changed despite its proximity to Westfields. The wine list is extensive and excellent and they now also offer a "take out" option - great idea. The bar is extremely busy, especially during the after-work hours. On my last visit it was almost impossible to have a decent chat due to the noise levels - and they don't even pipe music! The food menu changes regularly and includes a good selection of comfort dishes (pasta, bangers and mash), saladdy things and cheese or meat platters.

For some reason, even though I have these amazing places at the step of my doorstep it always takes…read moreme awhile to discover them, and another while to finally go to them. Such is the case of the Albertine Wine Bar. Lovely old wooden floors, chairs that seem to have belonged to a church, and its owner/ chef always having a glass of red wine at the end of the bar. There is an upstairs area which is decorated with photography for sale and chilled out tunes. Excellent selection of wine (130 wines from around the world), red Chilean 'Chocolan' is always our choice and the food is simply divine. A home-made feel, like carrot and pea soup, or duck salad, charcuterie selection, honey roast ham salad and amazing blueberry cheesecake. The menu changes on a regular basis this is one of the reasons you have to come back for more, and the other is to taste all the cheeses (about 20) it costs £5.95 for 3 cheeses of our choice, crackers and bread. Not a cheese connoisseur? not to worry, they are and can give you a guide as to what you may like. It can get very busy on friday and saturday evenings so get there early to get a good table, like the ones by the windows, or call ahead to reserve.

AMAZING food! My partner and I were staying in Chiswick for the week and decided on a whim to try…read morethis place out. I had a beef meatball dish called Sheftali and he had a roast lamb dish called Kleftiko. We also each had a Greek salad and split an appetizer of the fried calamari that came with a house made dipping sauce that was seasoned unlike anything I've ever had but was absolutely fantastic! The restaurant is clean, well decorated and inviting and every bite of food we had was top notch, generously portioned and reasonably priced. We're trying it again one other night before returning home...and this time we're saving room for the baklava for dessert!

Having been to Greece about two years ago made me fall in love with their culture and especially…read moretheir food. They celebrate family and friends around food, service in restaurants is an entertainment in itself, and food must be fresh. Kalamari did not live up to this expectation. The service was not bad it just didn't match up, they weren't as friendly and welcoming as I expected and our particular server didn't seem to enjoy his job. The only time we got a smile was when we got the bill. However, the food was not bad at all. Depending on what you order, food may seem a tad over priced, Sea Bass (£16) it doesn't taste as if it has just been caught from the ocean, cooked and served, but the Dolmades (£9.50, a Greek Specialty) were very savoury. We would have stayed longer an ordered some dessert but I didn't feel totally comfortable, possibly because at the moment they are fixing the facade of the restaurant and it was noisy and a bit of a mood killer.

Listen. If this gaff was in NY and you were on holiday there…read moreand stumbled across it on some intrepid manoeuvre to Queens or Brooklyn, you'd be raving to all and sundry about this place you found in Brooklyn or Queens that nobody else had ever heard about and was one of the best kept secrets in NY. Well you're not on holiday in NY. But you live in London. And Hammersmith isn't intrepid like Plaistow or some Godforsaken place. It's fairly central and packed full of great places to eat. In fact, in this one 200m stretch of the wide pavemented bit of King St W6 I'd say there are five very good restaurants, plus a couple of more dodgy additions. And a Pizza Hut. So competition for the local Hammersmith groat is fierce. L'Amarosa is the place you rave about because you think you've discovered it. Seductively lit, all mahogany, mezzanine floor and wine glasses that ting. Even the typography is seductive. This is what you want a proper Italian to be. Flowers on every table. Art on the walls that isn't a blight on your evening. Friendly relaxed service that makes you feel like you're the only ones there when in fact they are often full and never mob handed when it comes to staff. Le Gavroche this ain't. But I defy the aforementioned to whip up a plate of pasta as moreish and satisfying. The owners cook and serve. And you feel the love with every plate. Excellent small local places like this can't exist without that love. It's too much hard work. But the chef loves his pasta, you can tell. And the maitre 'd loves serving it, you can tell. The true sign of a good Italian is one where have never heard of the pasta on offer. Fact. I suspect the good places make up the names just for people like me. Toofie. Pacceri. I ask just in case it's not pasta at all. It's all explained gleefully. The menu is small. Another good sign as far as I'm concerned. Three dishes in the pasta section, plus a few in the char grilled section and some nicely put together starters. Courgette with Romesco sauce was pretty and tasty. The aubergine and tomato tortelloni had punch. The white chocolate pannacotta a delightfully elegant way to finish. But by the time you go the menu will have changed. What won't have changed is the love. It's an 'order two bottles and settle in' kind of place from which, if you're in a window seat, you can plot future meals at Potli or Saigon Saigon directly opposite. But the night will always belong to L'Amarosa, a place Hammersmith people will want to keep secret but absolutely worth the trek if you're from the wrong side of the tracks. A seductive, elegant reward for your intrepidness.

The first clue was that there was only 1 other table occupied on a Friday night. The service was terrible. From getting no dishes for a table of 8 forolives and bread, we asked the server for plates. She brought 2. We then asked her to bring one for each person. She plunked bottles of water and wine on the table without serving them. She wanted our dinner order even before she asked about cocktails. The whole experience was abysmal, although itself was fine. We travel to London often and would never go back.

This was one of my top 5 places I planned to eat at during my month long vacation in London. I wanted a falafel place and this Palestinian spot was perfect. These guys are lovable and friendly and they make a great sandwich at an inexpensive price and the sandwiches are very healthy for you. Falafel made on the spot while you wait. I recommend their most expensive sandwich and the spicy chips. Realize the more expensive the roll, the size doesn't increase, only the ingredients change. Unfortunately London is a house of ruins when it comes to hummus because they water it down with about a gallon of the Thames river, everywhere you go. Why doesn't anyone make their own hummus and do it right? There is indoor seating available with tables. My advice is buy your falafel and head deeper into Shepherd's Bush Market until you reach Osman's Juice, and there are chairs there under cover. Get some pure sugar can juice, freshly squeezed, and go to heaven, or he will mix anything he has to your your delight. May The Falafel be with you!
