I remember "La Lanterna" which didn't fare well after it was on Kitchen Nightmares in 2005 http://www.realitytvrevisited.com/2011/05/uk-seaso...
Forgot about that, dark days. Didn't he blow his money on cars...?

Lussmans in Hitchin is amazing. Not cheap, but been there twice and the food is really good. Good service and most importantly this week, well air conditioned ha!!

Would definitely recommend.

As in a chef based near the A1, rather than a chef who's any good? rolleyes

Although 'chef' might be overcooking his culinary capability a bit....

Let us know what you think. I think there's a few in Hertfordshire.

I've not been there but a good friend of mine has and only has good things to say about it!

Veyso's brasserie in Hertford is really good too. Turkish restaurant.

Finally managed to go there a couple of weeks ago. Really good food, friendly service although a bit slow. Only about 7 tables in the place. Estate agents might call it cosy.

Great place, my favourite in Hitchin. Think I mentioned it somewhere further back in this thread.

Thoroughly recommend the Meating room in st albans (top of the high st, near the hyundai dealership).

Cute little burger place, only a few booths....very reasonably priced for st albans, great burgers and fries, and quick service.

Rump and Wade in Stevenage old town is worth a mention. Really nice food and recently refurbished.

Have you been there?

I've eaten there a few times and the foods always been good. For me, Craft and Cleaver (just down the road) is a bit better though.

I love craft and cleaver! Been there a few times. The chicken skewers are amazing.

I'll check it out. Live in Radlett now, but still pop to St Albans quite a bit.

On the plus side i walk to work, so the DC5 is a proper driveway ornament now!

Maintaining the St Albans theme, we went to Tabure last weeK, Turkish food.

It's run by the guys who use to run Okka in Harpenden which was superb when they were there. Tabure is on a par! Lovely food, really good service and a nice atmosphere. I'd recommend it if you fancy something a little different.
