Here are some once-trendy restaurants which have singularly and inexplicably failed to mount a comeback:

1. Quaglino's
2. San Lorenzo
3. Can't think of a third.

These are VALUABLE TIPS, gentlemen! Thanks. Awesome. I will be providing reviews in the coming days.

I believe so. It seems to have shed its trendiness in favour of an almost studied lack of pretentiousness. Worth a go, anyway. And it's near enough that you can Uber it there and back from where you are.

It's a kind thought, but... Wandsworth? For dinner? I occasionally make it as far as Petts Wood or Orpington, but Wandsworth?

No no. I'm prepared to go out for dinner if I can be home by 8:30 for tea and a Game of Thrones, otherwise I'm stopping in.

Maybe when I retire back in leafy Hampstead :nod:

It felt like a bit of history, somehow. Plus of course one was always reminded of Odette Sansom.

For lunch I like to visit the seaside. I eat oysters and drink black velvet and then move on to to lobsters and red wine, or occasionally turbot if I am so minded.

There is no seaside at Wandsworth, b.

No, but there's a nice common and the river Wandle.

Seaside = fish and chips out of the paper, anything else and you are gayer than Monty's boyfriend
