....sizzling when it arrived and tasting pretty good. Not totally authentic but nice nonetheless. Maybe a few too many herb type weeds in it, but the chicken was cooked well and five assorted condiments helped it along. 'L' size but maybe not quite enough to fill someone who was, well, very hungry.Linguine with clams followed
The clams were huge and very clean looking. The pasta was 'saucy' enough to keep it nice and moist throughout and the only complaint would be that it was a little salty. I would however eat it again. 'M' size and certainly filling. Perfectly cooked pasta.The burger was last to arrive, but was worth the wait. 'L' size and certainly a good size for someone such as myself. Really enjoyed it and it was cooked very well indeed - slightly pink and the meat was falling apart which is something that I find makes a burger that much more 'authentically homemade'. The only real complaint, and something which i find to be annoying in many places, is the need to put pickles in a burger. It calls itself the 'British Burger' and whilst i have not lived in the UK for a long time, I do remember that finding pickles in a burger is not that common at all. They weren't listed on the menu as being in the burger so, KEEP THEM OUT! Otherwise, a good burger and one which I will be eating again.
Overall, one of the better meals we have had out of late and a place that I will definitely be going back to to sample other things on the menu. Also, the option of sizes is a really good idea and it applied to each dish on the menu so theoretically, everyone should be able to find something which suits them and their appetite. Really nice lunch and definitely a place I recommend for others to try....
