Restaurant Reviews

47 Marsham Street, Westminster, London SW1P 3DP

This contemporary Italian restaurant in Westminster should prove a boon to spin doctors, lobbyists, journalists and any MP brave enough to put a nice meal out on their expenses. In charge of the kitchen is chef Demian Mazzocchi, Dutch-born but raised in Italy and who has worked in the restaurant for over 15 years.

38 Holly Grove, London SE15 5DF

A relative old-timer of Peckham restaurants, having opened in 2004, Ganapati is chef-owner Claire Fisher’s ode to India. The colourful space is filled with mouth-watering aromas that pave the way for the delicious, homely food. The thalis are fail-safe favourites or go off-piste with their more inventive offerings such as tuna with smoked tamarind. The desserts are also great.
