Crocker’s Folly Restaurant, London
Empty Chairs at Empty tables: Part 2 The second restaurant that forms part of our ‘Empty Chairs at Empty tables’ blog is Crocker’s Folly, situated in St John’s Wood NW8.
NW3 Bar & Kitchen, London
Empty Chairs at Empty tables: Part 1 Alas, not a review of Les Miserables nor the song from the show, instead a review of two recent dining experiences at two rather lovely restaurants, but sadly, both were somewhat deserted hence the title of our latest two-part blog. Our first review focuses on NW3 Bar & Kitchen.
Festive Restaurant Feasting 2014/15, London Style
Here at Planet Elldrew our 2014 Christmas break seemed to comprise mostly of eating in some of London’s finest restaurants, in the company of friends and relatives from both home and overseas. This is probably similar to most people’s break but in the interest of avoiding the topic of diets or New Year’s resolutions, we …

A festive poem from Elldrew… From sweater shivering shakers to sweaty sun worshipping bakers As Santa visits real and fake trees across varying temperature degrees Elldrew would like to raise a cheer to all our friends far, near and dear Merry Christmas, good tidings to all Happy New Year, have a bloody ball!

Hand picked toys and stylish fancy dress, carefully chosen international brands and artisans, things to treasure and things that are just cool. Themed party kits, ready made party bags …
Kabuki Restaurant, Abama Hotel, Tenerife
For our third visit back to this fantastic resort we just had to return to Kabuki – the 1 Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton resort. This visit we dined twice as the food was exquisite and again lived up to it’s ‘best Japanese restaurant in Europe’ status. Mouthwatering, visually spectacular, if you are visiting …
Spring Restaurant, Whatever the Season
You know when you’re watching a talent show on TV and you think the act is terrible yet they get a standing ovation, or the opposite happens, your favourite act is booed and you wonder if you’re watching the same programme? At the end of the day everything we experience comes down to personal preference, …
The Grafton & Texas Joe’s, London NW5
For years Elldrew’s ‘local’ pub in Kentish Town NW5 was less than 100 metres away, but we never dared enter in fear that we might not make it out alive. You see, The Grafton was a run down pub that attracted the wrong crowd, and as far as we knew, it was kept afloat via …
