What I ordered: 18 Course Dinner (£60pp)
Website: https://www.instagram.com/kurisuomakase/ & https://www.facebook.com/KurisuOmakase/

Imagine Japanese sushi, with a Thai and Colombian influence... Well you don't have to imagine that anymore because if you head over to Kurisu Omakase it becomes a reality! The sushi chef, Chris, puts together flavours that you wouldn't expect would be paired together, in 18 yummy courses. Would you have ever thought to have put orange zest on fish? No... well Chris DID! All 6 of us enjoyed every single bite, whilst his dishes literally melted in our mouths. When the session was over, we still wanted more and we didn't want it to end (I'm sure from the pictures you can tell why). Not only were we able to devour unique dishes, I was able to have the experience of eating foods I had never tried before such as; caviar, miso soup (I'm probably late to the party, sue me) and some of the fish he served. As it is only 6 people per session, it's very intimate. Therefore, you get to enjoy the food and also his passion, knowledge and the background of his influence, as well as being entertained by his humour. This is an experience I won't forget and if you're also looking for a unique experience, I really recommend it (especially if you're a sushi lover). This is the beginning of Kurisu Omakase and I'm excited to watch it grow!

What I ordered: Lobster Mac & Cheese (with a side of salad), Chips and Strawberry Daiquiri slushie cocktail
Website: http://bigeasy.co.uk/#home

First of alllll, these pictures do not give the size of the lobster mac & cheese justice... it was BIG!!! Secondly, can you believe this was £10 (each)?! We might have made the mistake of going here when the beautiful London summer heat was 31 degrees outside, so having something as heavy as this was a bit sickly. HOWEVER, that does not take away from the fact it was still a delicious meal! I just thought I'd give the heads up to go here, probably during Autumn/Winter for the perfect comfort food. The mac and cheese was dreamy and creamy lol, and then once you got a bite of the lobster it was even better. Another good thing about that mac and cheese, was that they were generous with the lobster chunks. I feel like some places would be stingy and only allow you to get a few bites of lobster, but that wasn't the case. In almost every bite, I got a big chunk of lobster. The drinks were refreshing in the heat. I really want to go back soon, to try their Crabshack Combo (which has peel ‘n’ eat shrimp, crab claws, mussels, cams & new potatoes, hot ‘n’ spicy or garlic White Wine Cream) - does that not sound amazingggggg??? My mouth is watering thinking about it. I think my seafood combo dream, will soon come true :')

Heads up:
- Check out their website for loads of deals

What I ordered: Fried chicken, Glazed chicken and chips. I've been a second time and also tried the sticky chicken.
Website: http://chickandbeers.co.uk/

Omg, if it wasn't for my friend, I would have never know this placed existed!!! It was life changing to my taste buds. I also think they should sponsor her, because the amount of people who kept asking where this was, was crazyy. This was the first time I had ever tried Korean food. I initially thought the first time I would try Korean food, would be at a Korean bbq spot, but this was a great way to start it because it's FRIED CHICKEN. Firstly, let's talk about the unique way they present it. It comes in this wooden crate box, with newspaper on the base. I love this concept. It gives a super warm and casual dining theme, as if you're in your house and you can freely tuck straight into it. Now let's move onto the chicken... THAT CRISPY, CRISPY, SWEET AND JUICY CHICKEN. As soon as you bite into it, you get that perfect crunch and the chicken isn't dry, so it melts into your mouth. It has the right flavours (as the sweetness of it isn't overbearing at all) and it's light, so you don't feel sickly after eating it. As I also mentioned, I recently tried the sticky chicken (which are boneless chicken bites). These weren't bad, but I recommend the glazed chicken over it. Even the chips were amazingg. Again, light, crispy, fluffy and it even had some flavouring to it. This is the perfect spot for a family lunch/dinner or a catch up with a friend.

Heads up:
- One portion is enough for two, however, you can do half and half.

What I ordered: Salt and pepper squid, Sausage, chorizo, potato and gorgonzola Bianco (no tomato sauce) pizza with Negroni Sbagliato and Limoncello Kiss cocktails. 
Website: https://ecorestaurants.com/

Eco seems like the perfect place for a dinner date (whether it's a catch up with a friend or a significant other). It has a calm and casual atmosphere, but still feels fancy at the same time. As you step in, you see the seating, along with the open kitchen in the middle, located on the left. The food was delicious. My salt and pepper squid came with tartare sauce, which obviously complimented it well. What stole the show was the PIZZA!!! I can taste it now as I'm typing this. Unexpectedly, it had a sweet and salty combination. The sweetness came from those potatoes. They weren't sweet potatoes, but they were sweet and were yummmyyyyy!!! Once I got a bite of everything in my mouth, there was an explosion of satisfying flavours. Every bite made me happy lol. Only teeny downside, was that the gorgonzola was a tad overpowering in certain bites. Some parts of the pizza had a good dollop of it, so when I ended up just biting into it, it was a little sickly. Overall, the food was great, the portions were on point and the price made it all even better!!! I cannot wait to go again!!! I want that pizza now... 

Heads up:
- Book beforehand (recommended if you're going in the evening).
- 2 for 1 on cocktails (Mon-Fri between 5:30pm-7pm).

What I ordered: Codfish fritters, Jerk chicken with rice and peas and rum punch.
Website: http://www.fishwingsandtings.com/menu/

Sometimes finding a good West Indian restaurant can be difficult. Even though, they're selling the same food, it can be a hit and miss. With Fish, Wings and Tings, that was not the case. The codfish fritters, were better than saltfish fritters. There were hints of spring onions (and I love spring onions), they were light and fluffy and there wasn't that overwhelming saltiness. The sauce, which was a mix of sweet and sour, complimented them really well and as it was a thin consistency, it made the balance even better. The jerk chicken meal was the PERFECT portion. The chicken wasn't dry, which made the meal even more enjoyable and the flavours on that plate were amazinggg! There was the subtle spice and heat from the jerk, and then there was the sweetness from the bbq tamarind sauce, coleslaw and mango/pineapple chutney. To accompany my food, I got rum punch (which did not lack any Wray and Nephew at all lol). I recommend eating here during the summer. It's the perfect setting to enjoy good food, company and the weather.  To conclude, I can't wait to go back!... Even if that means, going during the winter period. 

Heads up:
- Only outside dining, so it's best to go in the summer.

What I ordered: AB Traditional (Fried chicken, Absurd gravy and waffle topped with maple syrup) and chips. My friend had also ordered mac and cheese on the side.
Website: https://www.absurdbird.com/

The one meal I wanted to try before I die, was chicken and waffles. I thought in order to accomplish this, I'd have to travel to America. Luckily, my friend found this place and my food dream came true!!! It's a small restaurant, with industrial lights. The seating is a bit awkward, as you either sit on the sofa side or stools. Apart from that, the food did not disappoint. I'm a major fan of sweet and salty flavours together, and they made it pair perfectly. The saltiness from the well seasoned boneless fried chicken and sweetness from the waffle and maple syrup, was just wow! It was the perfect balance. That gravy was different, I can't explain the taste of it, but I was fan of it. It complimented it all well (btw, I would dip my food in it, whilst eating, instead of just pouring it on top). To be honest, depending on how hungry you are, you don't need sides with it, as the meal alone was pretty filling. I've been back a second time, and I can't wait to go back again!

Heads up:
- Small location, (not sure if all locations are small) - so best to book in advanced.
