In what is becoming a fairly unique affair, I managed to have lunch again on Thursday. Again with some colleagues, I found myself at the Queen’s Head & Artichoke, 30-32 Albany Street, Regents Place, London. In what appears to be a very fine gastro bar we were seated quickly in the 1st floor dining room. With the waiter hovering (and speaking in a very broad french accent – I reckon he was from Hackney), we quickly placed our order. He seemed a little put out that we all ordered soft drinks and when I asked for a coke, I for a brief moment, thought I would get a cork!.
Anyway I went for the Black bean soup, tomato, red onion, cucumber & lime salsa at £4.50 for my starter and this was very good indeed. It didn’t need any seasoning at all which is always good to find. For a main, I went for the Lasagne with organic beef at £10.50. Served with rocket leaf salad, it was well cooked and flavoursome. The portion was just a little on the large side for a lunchtime meal so I would perhaps not do it again, as the rest of the day proved a little troublesome carrying round my slightly expanded belly.
