The Cross Keys

crosskeys

If you are in London this summer (or any time!) I recommend trying The Cross Keys pub in Chelsea.  Tucked down near the river, its a little off the beaten track and one of the prettiest pubs I have ever been in! 1 Lawrence Street, Chelsea, London SW3.

La Fromagerie

17 May 2009

The origins of La Fromagerie lie in a 1990 trip that owner Patricia Michelson took to Meribel, France, and tasted the cheese Beaufort Chalet d’Alpage for the first time. After returning to England and selling the cheese from her home Michelson eventually opened a stall in Camden Market before La Fromagerie on Moxon Street just off Marylebone High Street.  La Fromagerie is a ‘tasting cafe’ and in addition to the wide selection of cheeses serves salads, soups, and yummy croque monsieurs. I’ve been told that aside from having a charming atmosphere, which is why I go, that La Fromagerie is a place for ‘real foodies’.

McNallys Tavern, Chestnut Hill, PA

13 January 2009

If you should ever find yourself in the enclave of Philadelphia known as Chestnut Hill then I highly recommend that you make plans for lunch at the area’s famous McNallys Tavern. Unless you’ve got great eyes or know where to look its unlikely you’ll spot this little gem right on the main drag, Germantown Avenue, as the only signage is a tiny brass plate reading McNally’s as pictured above. Once you find it the only regret you’ll have is the cellulite your bound to form as a result of their signature cheesesteak-like sandwich ‘The Schmitter’, which is soo delicious hot, cold, or reheated in the microwave several days after purchase.  McNallysTavern.com

Café Crêperie

The Kensington Crêperie is located at 2 Exhibition Road in South Kensington and The Marylebone Crêperie 71a Marylebone Lane (near Golden Hind). We reccomend the Kensington location due to a fabulous picture of Pierce Brosnan giving the thumbs up while eating here posted in the window.
