To unpick the announcement, Galley is the project of Marcel Grzyb and his sister Oriona Robb, who grew up in Poland where their grandfather was the local village butcher and their parents owners of a restaurant and delicatessen.

From “Small Plates” he chooses crispy Cornish squid with Japanese pepper sauce.

An order of Little Gem salad with pistachio herb dressing gets forgotten so the dessert of underpowered salted caramel tart with green tea ice cream (not great bedfellows) and chilli and hazelnut praline is not charged.

The cooking is less precise, most notably in a vegetarian small plate option of padron peppers, paneer, carrot and quinoa salad, which is served both fridge-cold and uncomfortably damp.

Among the Large Plates, where prices go up to £22.50 for sirloin steak, chimichurri and truffle-infused chips — there will be blood even in what is ostensibly a fish restaurant — the battered Cornish haddock with chips, pickled shallots, minted peas and tartare sauce at £14 is a proud example of our national dish.

It is a clear, bitingly cold night and actor (resting, we must assume) Harry Lobek — partner with his sister Leah in the London Shell Co — is doing his health-and-safety shtick aboard the canal boat The Prince Regent.

I arrive before my date — he is not actually that, just a very dear friend, but I note that this is a date-night environment complete with candles stuck in wax-dripped wine bottles.

On the grounds that we must encourage Turkish wine-growers working in what is now a dismal political climate — and for the more tenuous reasoning that this “had a good Turkish red the other day” — we drink a glass of Pasaeli Yapincak 2015 (all wines are offered by the glass and bottle).

A bottle of that (at £32) and then a glass of red with the Baron Bigod cheese — Suffolk Brie, you could call it — served with Medjool dates would have been the sensible and more economical way to go.

Set-price dinner £45pp plus drinks and the latest news and reviews from London’s food scene.

They’re romantic.

More romantic than, say, yachts.

Yachts are loud, preening, insecure, their decks all too often bobbing with the basted moobs of reality-TV judges and disgraced businessmen, crisping in the Barbadian sun.

Barges, by contrast, are modest, unassuming, endearingly awkward; their ugliness and their limitations only make them the more likeable....

London Shell Co, The Prince Regent, Regent’s Canal at Paddington, London W2 6EP (londonshellco.com).

From Wednesday to Friday evenings that barge sets sail along London’s Regent’s Canal from Paddington to Camden and back again.

The lunch menu lists four small plates for £5 each and four mains at £10, or £12 with a glass of house wine.

Smoked cod’s roe, a little pink, but properly granular and rugged, as if it could grout a bathroom if there was nobody around to eat it, comes alongside nutty, brown crackers made with the slight lactic tang of buttermilk.

The wine list, from which the glasses of house at that extra £2 are chosen, is a rather beautiful thing: both relatively short and idiosyncratic.
