I absolutely adore your writing. You say everything I think about menu descriptions and food reviews in an exhilaratingly excellent and eloquent style. Mwaw as the musicians say (but I can’t spell it?)
So pleased to have discovered Smashed! I hope you'll be reviewing Bella Freud's Guardian review of Dove, the "why" of which can only be to elevate Miquita Oliver from the bottom of the bad writing pile. Can anywhere else in London deliver a creme caramel with "texture like a memory from a 19th-century novel"?
I did really rather enjoy this! I couldn’t believe how terrible the writing in the guardian was.
Thanks for reading, glad you liked it.
The Observer, from Jay Rayner to Brooklyn Beckham?? in a few short months...
Not really? Although actually, I'd love to read a Brooklyn Beckham restaurant review.
You’re welcome! It’s also true.
Hahah "refusing to provide salt or pepper." So archaic.

That might be the nicest thing anyone had ever said to me! That really is very kind and extremely nice to hear so thank you very much.
I’m glad I could make the IKEA joke so you didn’t have to.
