311. Polpo

Polpo is a restaurant in London. It's very cool, doesn't take bookings in the evenings, gives you your wine in a tumbler, etc. The food is modelled after that which you would find in a Venetian bacari, or back street wine bar, little scrumptious things to eat with a glass of wine on your way home or to see your mistress. Some of the food is whatever. But the little things on toast are all delicious. The fennel salad is a keeper and if you have a hangover the piadina meatball smash will have you up on your feet in no time. But the best of all are the pizzette, little pizzas, so crisp and tasty and moreish it's hard not to order three.

  1. you are so cool with your non booking foodie fabulousness. even in the 'delightful back of beyond' you are still going to way way cooler places than me. i'd love to think that was because i have a 3 year old but i expect it is genetic, good work from VB. GCB:polpo. KND: nandos. both end in 'O'.
