    Southern Fried Chicken Wrap & latte.
    Kathryn T.

    I visited Cafe Zee last weekend having had it on my list of places to try for a good few months! Upon entering I was surprised to discover they actually roast their own coffee beans on site, as in all the hundreds of times I've walked past, I've never seen that fact displayed prominently outside the café front. The cakes, however, have always looked mouth-wateringly delicious and have caught my eye on many occasions. We were around Ealing looking for a quick lunch and decided to grab something savoury. I was impressed with the selection of sandwiches and opted for the southern fried chicken wrap, with cheese, soured cream & lambs lettuce. Toasted of course. Upon eating, I was unfortunately disappointed with my choice. There was too much soured cream, making it quite gloopy, heavy and not all that tasty. The chicken was also a lot less flavoursome than it could have been, it resembled plain breaded chicken more than any kind of southern fried spiced variation. However, my boyfriend had the prawn baguette which he said was delicious. I also ordered a large skinny latte, which was delicious, though they were slightly expensive. I suspect this is due to the fact they do roast their own but it tasted very similar to other coffees available at a lower cost near by. We did however also have room for something sweet and shared a triple chocolate cookie and Portuguese custard tart between us. Both of these were utterly delicious!!! The cookie was so richly flavoured it tasted more like a brownie and it was so good! I'd definitely return in future for coffee and cake, I'd just leave the savoury for elsewhere!

    Charming atmosphere, aromatic coffee and indulgent pastries. As micro-roasters, they care about their product and the shop really takes you on a journey as you enter. Coming here is like stepping in to a miniature museum, where you can buy souvenirs in the form of coffee beans. The big glass windows flaunt their many sweet things to the passing street, and that is more than enough to tempt me in each time I pass.

    Although the staff will tell you that they are only a recently opened cafe, they still offer breakfast from full English to Eggs Benedicte or Royale till 11 am. At the counter you can also get a variety of delicious Danish pastries and a good quality coffee of all kinds. Breakfast is served till 11. Good way to start the day with Mocca and Eggs Royale on a Sunday.

    I love Limeyard. Like love love. I've been more times than I can count on two hands since they…read moreopened, I've tried the place for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. For a date, family meal and a big group celebration- I've never had a bad experience. Their breakfast and brunch offerings are fantastic. The food portions are good, they taste amazing and they're good value being similar to other restaurants in the area for price. They serve breakfast until 4.30pm weekdays and serve brunch 11am-4pm at the weekend, my kinda hours (who's finished brunch by 12 on a Sunday ever?! Why do places do that?). Alongside their extensive breakfast menu they're a great choice for lunch or dinner. I can thoroughly recommend most of their menu, having visited plenty of times. I found their ribs to be delicious, with plenty of sauce and no dryness. Their seasoned fries and sweet potato fries are both perfectly crisp outside and fluffy inside. A personal favourite of my boyfriend and I is nipping in for a cheap lunch and sharing the half (or full, if the four of us are out) yard of tacos for £7.95 or £14.50 respectively. With five fillings to choose from there's an option to suit most tastes and they're full of flavour. The pulled pork are especially good. The staff are always cheerful, smiling and genuinely happy to help. Service has always been 100% on every visit. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Limeyard to everyone.

    On the rare occasions where we find ourselves out of the house on a Saturday morning, which isn't…read moreoften, we like to grab brunch together. Since we've moved to Ealing over two years ago this has happened a grand total of...one time. We often walked past LimeYard and have always liked the casual and fun vibes it has, so we thought brunch would have been a perfect chance to try it out (no risk of spoiling a whole evening out if it turned out to be terrible, I'm smart like that). Despite the nice weather we sat inside (they have a small area on the front with a few tables), the diner-style table I wanted was busy sadly so we were seated in one of the two-people square tables along the sofa/bench. Watch out as the butt might slightly slide off that one. My other half ordered a full Yard (their Americanised version of a full English) and I ordered salmon eggs benedict. They usually come with spinach, but EEWW, GREENS! so I had mine without. Instead of English muffins they are served on a massive slice of brioche, which I now prefer ten thousand times over English Muffins for my eggs benedict. It was really really really tasty, and I'm salivating just thinking about it. We also ordered a croissant with butter and jam, for good measure. Came split in two ready to welcome the spread. Very yummy. We also ordered two freshly squeezed orange juices. All was served really quickly, maybe too quick (every time I'm served within 10 minutes I feel like I'm being rushed out...but that's me) and the service was kind and efficient. Really wish I was not back on diet so I could pop there again this weekend. OH WELL! Will definitely be back to try dinner.

    I adore this place…read more It doesn't matter how amazing you are if I can't afford you. Food to me will never be worth it. You can drizzle this and foam that, but all I want is a good meal, good service and not to feel like I've been ripped off. On the Mrs recommendation we popped in here for dinner one night. Not having a lot of experience with Thai food at the time (aside from a Thai curry here and there in random pubs - what's with that trend) so I was a bit sceptical. The restaurant is canteen style. Individual tables but with bright simple furniture and accent pieces on the walls. This place is busy, but not overbearingly so. They offer a take away service so there were lots of people ordering at the counter at the back to take away that Thai goodness. We started with Tempura, which was divine. Second best I've ever had after Feng Sushi on the South Bank. We also had a selection of veggie nibbles which were all really interesting. For mains I had Pad Thai and she a red Thai curry. Both were gorgeous. Large, generous portions and simply but pretty presentation. There was a lovely woman serving us. She spoke barely any English but was delightful, attentive and had a warm and welcoming smile. Safe to say she's always had good tips from us. The best thing of all was the bill. Starters, mains and drinks all at around £22. I may be cheap, but the food was not. All fantastic quality and amazing value.

Obviously the manager noticed that and went to their table and pointed to the "no noise" sign, good for him!

My friend had the lobster and pasta. http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz_photos/NmtgcBwynPMQsC4eylzouA?select=J9fFFzgCbBnTnzpvuBBg0A. Which looked great but pasta suffered from not cooking properly. They didn't push the pasta into the boiling water all the way so one end of the pasta wasn't as cooked as the other end.

It was the best dish at our table that day. http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz_photos/NmtgcBwynPMQsC4eylzouA?select=CllifRS6xI0dy_AwSi7JQw He was trying to eat light but it was quite hardy and I had salad envy! Yum how I missed avocados! So overall, the service was a bit shoddy. I never touched my rocket salad but the server was kind enough to take it off the tab. The food was nothing great. Thank god for prosecco and friends to distract me. I think i could have been really upset with the quality of the meal not being reflective of the price.

    Okay, I can't rave enough about this place. It is my local Italian, but I just love it to bits…read more Nestled down an alley behind two huge wooden doors (thus the name), the restaurant has a great layout. In warm weather the alley has tables that allow outside seating. Inside, the downstairs isn't huge, which gives it a close, cosy feel. There are tables for 2, 4 and a couple of larger ones (one rectangular, one circular). There's lots of extra seating upstairs, although the ambiance isn't quite as nice. It's run by Italians, so you get the proper bread and olives to start. Now, I've eaten olives all over the world, but I have no idea where these guys get olives this tasty. I've gone just for the olives. The menu's got lots of choice: starters, pasta, several pizzas, and some great mains. I wouldn't say it's the best place I've ever eaten, but it is the most consistent to have very good quality food. We go at least once a month, and have never been disappointed. Wine list is okay, but I always get the Valpolicella. Service is friendly and accommodating. They'll do your pizza take-away if you like. I feel really lucky to have a place like Osteria del Portico just a minute from where I live. It's delicious comfort food.

    please take know that the address should read as:…read more 8 Station Parade Uxbridge Road Ealing Common London W5 3LD also the map shown is indicating a wrong location! and the nearest tube station is ealing common and not kew gardens! our original plan was to try out sushi hiro nearby. unfortunately hiro was fully booked for the evening and we settled for kiraku. basically, kiraku builds itself as an izakaya restaurant. lot's of japanese patrons which is always a good sign. comprehensive menu with a bit of everything. the sashimi moriwase special was surprisingly very good. very fresh and nicely cut. the shoku carpaccio was a nice sashimi salad with garlic and olive oil. their kaki fry was well fried. the salmon porridge was simple and comforting. the grilled eggplant with cheese and miso was a little over salty. kushiyaki was ok but not outstanding. i like their crispy chicken skin. their beef tongue was nicely crunchy and chewy. the pork rolled with shiso leaf was slightly too porky in taste. the chicken ball was ordinary and so was the chicken. as for the chicken wing, one was burnt and the other was under cooked. maki wise, the ones we ordered were the kiraku special and soft shell crab. kiraku special had a generous serving of ikura but i couldnt taste any crispy salmon skin. the soft shell crab one was ordinary. in both, the rice grains seem too starchy and big. the biggest led down, food wise, has to be the special of the day which was a deep fried iberico pork. too oily outside and too dry inside. definitely not worth the money and long wait! for dessert we struggled to make the staff know what we wanted. bascially, 2 macha ice cream with azuki beans and 1 kuri ice cream with azuki beans. after going back and forth for 10 minutes, she finally understood what we wanted! sigh. my biggest complain for kiraku has to be their wait staff! very slow service and no promptness in refilling our tea despite many reminders to do so! also the food took ages to come. so much so that we even forgot we had ordered them. having said that, they must be doing well as they were packed by 8pm. i'll be back but i'll be more careful what i order in the future. Opening Hours: Tuesday - Sunday (Monday Closed) Lunch: 12 - 3pm (Last orders 2:30pm) Dinner: 6 - 11pm (Last orders 10pm)

    Camembert and fried pork sushi roll?…read more Stop and imagine that for yourself. Gooey smelly French cheese, fried pork cutlet and a little bit of chutney all wrapped up in seaweed and rice and then served with the usual dish of soy sauce and wasabi. How do you think that combination will go? Hint, don't dip it in the soy/wasabi stuff. So I think from the start of this review you'll realise that Kiraku are not the traditional sushi sellers that nearby five-star Atari-Ya are. They do sell some good cuts of raw fish as sashimi, nigiri and donburi but they also do a whole lot more - salads, roasted tofu, crispy crab and the aforementioned cheese and pork maki. I'm pretty sure I still prefer the conservative sushi three doors down, especially as the mackerel at Kiraku is annoyingly the pickled kind. But Kiraku must be doing something good as it's very packed every night and usually with young Ealing Japanese having fun with the many sakes.

I can see why now, having tasted several dishes from the menu. For what could easily pass as just another pub, this place is not like your average pub yet is very cosy and casual. It is clean and presentable. Staff take time to prepare the table before the dish is served, drinks arrive quickly. Our dishes also came at the same time. The owner is what makes it worth coming back to, as his attention to detail and friendly personality liven it up. He has been in business for years for a reason. He runs a tight ship and puts the customer first. What a joy! And the food. You will find both breakfast and lunch items on the menu. Portion sizes are huge. The club sandwich is not to be taken down easily, as my classmate will tell you. As for me, I enjoyed the fish and chips with just the right amount of batter, crisp chips and a delicious tartar sauce with small side of lettuce. The lamb burger, minute steak and eggs benedict were all classically done. You will get fries with every dish and can substitute salad. The best dish I had was attributed to the French owner recommending the Tartiflette Savoyarde. It was my first time trying it and was a bowl of cheesy goodness with bacon, onion and potatoes served with a giant salad and baguette. This was no meal for the weak, come hungry and you will be satisfied.

It boasts an expansive outdoor seating area which would be perfect for the summer months. While there are outdoor heaters they get hogged by the smokers so its indoors we go... Inside is simple. Nothing to flash, but simple wooden tables and chairs and rustic decor. The bar has no optics but shelves of eclectic spirits. I spied in the fridges some interesting fruits not normally part of the standard bar fare. This place takes everything very seriously. A wonderful cocktail, non alcoholic cocktail lists, wine and food menu. A board prominently displayed in the bar gives the range of desert wines and the food seems seasonal and very French. While we did not sample the food, and as always with French restaurants there was not much to tempt the vegetarians among us. I'd be interested in seeing how the meat lovers among you feel the food is. That afternoon there was an interesting mix of clientele, from the family in the corner to two old guys propping up the bar and enjoying a bottle of rioja. There was also a lot going on in the place with weird and wonderful events taking place. Overall a smashing place for groups and a nice drink.
