Fifteen (Jamie Oliver)




Drage caused a huge fuss here about not getting enough attention from the staff since Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were there and hogging it all. He dealt with it by shouting at the waiter and promptly getting kicked out. His secretary called up the next day to apologise and explain that there must have been some misunderstanding but was quickly informed that he was already ‘flagged’ since the last time he came he got so drunk he fell asleep at the table.

The first time I came I had the taster menu not realising how many courses (15). I ate everything that came at me with such gusto that by the end of it I was feeling so full I had to throw up in the bathroom. Having said all this, breakfast here is delightful. Quite a difference experience from having an evening meal as it’s in the brasserie upstairs rather than the posh dining room downstairs. It’s laid back and everything is thought out with care without charging the earth (and the staff are very friendly despite the fact it’s known as a smart restaurant). The exposed brick walls and honest British fare (as much toast as you want) make it quite possibly my favourite spot for breakfast. It’s very popular so on a weekend you may have to queue but the turn over is quick enough and you can watch the chefs making pasta while you wait. It’s very social so not somewhere I’d come alone, well not at the weekend anyway.
