For some reason the restaurants at this location keep closing down such as La Porcina and recently this short lived Chinese style Western curry thing which was clearly a failure.Lets see if LLB Bistro stays as it is different to the predecessors.I was captivated by the menu which was a good sign, they had Scotch Egg and Eton Mess which is English but you really need to try it to see if it is the real deal so went in.The ambiance was pretty good and it was good seeing tea served in stylish tea po
I was captivated by the menu which was a good sign, they had Scotch Egg and Eton Mess which is English but you really need to try it to see if it is the real deal so went in.
The ambiance was pretty good and it was good seeing tea served in stylish tea pots and cups.
I had already decided on the Scotch Egg and Eton Mess and was still deciding on a main.The humor on the menu was quite cute!
[We hereby do notify you that unless you place an order within the next minutes, we shall vacate your table without further notice.
Last but not least, we hope you don't take the above paragraph seriously.]
In the end ordered the Fish and Chips which seemed like the real deal as it had crushed peas which I think they mean mushy peas.
The Scotch Egg came first which was promising with a runny egg yolk.Basically it was really similar to the one I had at Sundays grocery years ago.
It was simply delicious, a silky tender egg surrounded in sausage meat and a crispy crumb coating.There was some side stuff which I thought was beetroot but it sweet stuff.
You could tell it was dried apple pieces the stuff you find in museli because when it gets its moisture back, it has a foamy crisp texture.
The other sweet stuff in that pile tasted like cranberries and possibly stewed apple.
Next was the Fish and Chips.
Well with light and no light you could see the bottom one was over done compared to the top one.
I am quite puzzled why they served it with fries when fat chips were on the menu but anyway it was ok.It was not cod but some other small fish which I suspect could be seabass because the texture was very soft and silky.
The mushy peas looked promising but they had some strange sweet taste to it.
For drinks, had the hot mint chocolate which was served in a glass but luckily it wasn't boiling hot as it would be difficult to hold the glass hence the reason why hot drinks are served in cups with ears.
Anyway, the taste of the mint chocolate was comforting as it tasted just like the instant mint chocolate sachets that you can buy at Sainsburys.
Rose Coffee:
Last but not least was the Eton Mess.
To be honest, there was way too much cream but at least it was delicious cream and not fake Chinese Cream which I really appreciate!!I really wish I had some scones nearby as there was just that much cream in it.
Overall, it was delicious but too much cream in ratio to meringue and strawberries so every spoon I had was practically cream.
After browsing LLB Bistro, it seems they are connected to Oldish which is another good restaurant just round the corner so I think LLB Bistro is here to stay!
