Yotam Ottolenghi ... NOPI

Sandy booked this restaurant before we left Australia as she wanted a seat right or wrong.
Yotam appeared on Masterchef last season, Sandy just loved the menu that he set for the contestants challenge that she was inspired  to cook it at The Retreat ...
 Today in London we can try the real thing.
Impressive décor, made in cardboard
 Great bar
 The Cocktail Menu was amazing ... Just soooooo different.
One could say that the drinks were almost eatable.
 Friendly staff who thought I was paparazzi worth smiling for!
 Simple table ware
Stunning toilets to get lost in.
 Cleaning in the men's ... maybe! a little bit questionable LOL
Waiter is that a fly in my bowl?
For me the Coriander & Ginger Martini
Ketel One vodka, lime' fresh ginger and baby coriander.
Sandy had the Michoacán Sherbet
Michoacán Mezcal, yuzo, fino sherry, barberry syrup & curry leaves... Scrum.
Great friends to share it all with.
 Started with mixed seed lavosh with a burnt spring onion dip
and Cecina smoke beef, beer piquillo and crispy garlic
Truly fabulous middle eastern food in the heart of London.
Vege dish 1 ... Check out the menu below for details of each dish

Eggplant dish to "live for" ... Sandy loves all things Eggplant
Vege dish 3 ...
Vege dish 4 ... My favourite the beetroot and sesame seed salad

Vege dish 5 ...
Vege dish 6 ...
 Vege dish 7 ...
Meat dish 1 ...
Meat dish 2 ...
Meat dish 3 ...
  Something a little sweet to finish. 
 Where all the magic happens.
 Our menu today ... we worked our way through all the
7 Veg & 3 Meat sections of the menu.
No real need for dinner tonight!
They were all small dishes and well we did have a little help!
So it's off home by the best transport in London.
