And the award for the worst restaurant in London goes to...

[Goughie]

Daylesford Organic in Notting Hill!

Just read AA Gill's review on the Times website - he did not like it at all! Zero stars and hugely funny and grim reading at the same time!

I think it's fair to say he's underwhelmed by the place..

The competition would be fierce in London for that award.

Fantastic.

Superb rant.

Would have done well on here apart from the lack of swearing.

[mechsympathy]

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

So, pretentious and crap? In Notting Hill? Part of me isn't surprised.

Good rant, though. One to avoid.

That was wonderful. I feel like never venturing to Notting Hill was a good idea.

Notting Hill is lovely for a walk around.

Just pack your sarnies

I am not surprised that place got a roasting, the organic food shops are so expensive, and when organic can mean any number of things I fail to see how they can justify the prices. There was a place in Bristol at the top of Park Street called 'Fresh and wild', it has shut down recently. I used to go in there to taste the freebies and could not believe how much they charged. Loaves of 'organic' bread were selling for £3!! I once bought an apple and was charged 75p as it was local, therefore not costing much to get it on sale.

All of the people who were so concerned about consuming fresh and local produce seem to have disappeared, and are no longer interested in their 'my body is a temple' disillusions and are buying normal food like the rest of us.

Read that last week...superb review...very few people can insult like a restaurant critic, and Gill's had a lot of practice...
