Juicebaby in Kensington and Chelsea

Debo de haber pasado este pub tantas veces, pero nunca hemos estado en hasta hoy cuando estábamos buscando comida en un pub. No estaba muy lleno y la decoración es peculiar y colorida. El pub es algo un poco diferente en esta zona.

For many years I used Greenfields where I received consistently outstanding courteous, friendly, and swift service. Now where are they? Food quality was always the highest and prices reasonable but creeping up forced upon them by rapacious landlord happy to cede their territory to the growing French / Belgian community. Was it not Bonaparte who referred to the English as a "nation of shopkeepers"? Is it not ironic, therefore, that where he could not win at Waterloo his descendants could in South Ken....

Un amigo y yo fuimos a almorzar hoy para probar este restaurante vegano. Parecía agradable dentro de la cafetería, luminoso y aireado. Pedimos nuestro almuerzo: ensalada césar con frutas, hamburguesa vegana, cruditas y ensalada de col rizada. Quedé extremadamente sorprendido cuando la comida llegó a nuestra mesa con dos platos vacíos, y luego toda la comida que aún estaba en recipientes de plástico para llevar (de la nevera de autoservicio) también se llevó a la mesa. Vaya timo. No solo no teníamos comida fresca servida en nuestro plato sino que teníamos que servirla de los recipientes de plástico. No vale la pena el precio anunciado en el menú.

Very poor service and disagreeable staff: you wait for ever to be seated, to order, to be served. As a customer, you constantly have to attract the attention of staff to get anything, otherwise such staff will ignore you. The food is good but the portions are minuscule and the prices exorbitant. I will only, if ever, use the members’ room at the V&A for tea, if I really have to, from now on.

Nice garden but private room is tiny and it gets pretty hot in there
