Restaurants...

I was interested to read Kuan's notes on local restaurants and agree that Kennington Lane Restaurant (205-209 K'Lane, SE11 5QS T: 020 7793 8313, F: 080 7793 8323) is very good.

I also like: Bellamy's Dining Room (332 Kennington Lane SE11 5HY T: 020 7582 9569) down near Hester's Butchers. The chef is Michael, Sarah is the owner and Kim is the new supervisor. I have had there the best steak in my life. Again, it's expensive but for that special occasion... Apparently (according to their blurb), Fay Maschler said: "The restaurant is well worth seeking out..." They say: "Bellamy's Dining Room is passionate about British food...", "The food is delicious with a British touch using only the best seasonal ingredients, from small specialist suppliers." Open Tue-Fri (only), 12-3pm, 7-10pm. Oh, and you MUST check out the toilets! (both!)

I haven't been to the Lobster Pot for years but did see something in the Evening Standard recently about it's being one of the five best French restaurants in London:

FIVE PIECES OF FRANCE IN LONDON Our pick of the best French restaurants in London: Full Story: http://www.thisislondon.com/dynamic/food/top_review.html? in_review_id=528656&in_review_text_id=493586

As for Asian: I reckon the food at the takeaway, Taste of India, at #334 K'Road, SE11 (T: 020 7582 5603) is the best (but I'm from NZ so what would I know?)

For pizza, the best for me is Casa Pizza 5-6 Wincott Parade, 173 K'Rd SE11 (T: 020 7582 9585), run by a Lebanese chap. My favourite pizza is the Casa Special along with a salad (and, if you insist, a glass of wine).

I too agree, the Windmill Fish Bar is great. I'm so pleased that the recent renovation didn't posh it up too much.
