🇬🇧 London Bistro Chronicles: A Farewell Feast at Elliot's
This might be a slightly belated review, but this farewell dinner at Elliot's (by Borough Market) was too memorable not to share! 🥂 Five friends + endless dishes = pure bliss (apologies—was too busy savoring to note the per-head cost!). 🍽️ Dish Diary 🥩 Angus Bavette Steak: Pretty plating, but lacked oomph—needed more beefy punch. The peppery sauce begged for wine pairing! 🍷 🍄 Oyster Mushroom & Egg Yolk: Silky, salty perfection—mixing the yolk was a game-changer. Who knew fungi could be this fun? 🍞 Flatbread (MVP!): Ordered as an afterthought, but stole the show—wood-fired aroma, chewy crumb. Dip vehicle supreme! 🍕 Ox Tongue & Pancetta Pizza: My top pick! Chewy tongue + crispy-edged 'za = textural heaven. (Pro tip: Crust midpoint = gold.) 🥔 Potato Flatbread: Crispy base + chive butter + fish roe = umami fireworks. Could’ve eaten two! 🍟 Honorable Mentions: Crispy nugget potatoes (fluffy inside!) Cheesecake > tiramisu (the latter’s espresso-soaked ladyfingers crossed the soggy line) 🍷 Bistro Truths ⚠️ Salt warning: Dishes leaned salty (drink-pushing tactics?). 💡 Sweet spot: 4-5 people—lets you taste everything without menu FOMO! 📍 Elliot's 📌 Borough Market area, London #LondonBistros #GroupDining #FoodieMemories #UKDining
