Sunday night tapas at Goya Pimlico – London Foodie Update (Part 2 ...
food
It was two weekends ago when my husband and I found ourselves craving tapas at 9:30 pm after having seen an amazing flamenco show in Sadlers Wells theatre.
We knew it was a long shot but went on google maps and simply searched for tapas.
And then we discovered a place called Goya in Pimlico area, that not only had open until 11:30 pm, but was also on our way home!
The outcome of the venture was two of us with full bellies of quite delicious, authentic and very decently priced tapas washed down with an excellent value Ribera del Duero.
So, if you ever happen to crave tapas at an ungodly hour, this is the place to go!

staff menu
On the former site of the Page in Pimlico (RIP), the first gastropub at the 'wrong' (Eastern) end of the area; its cuisine is not ambitious, but this is a notably friendly place which has found an instant following in a part of town that's remarkably under-served.
Pimlico - especially the Victoria, rather than the Sloane Square end - really is the restaurant world that time forgot.
This is the part of town that houses the likes of Grumbles (the English bistro in business since 1964) and Pomegranates (Patrick Gwynn-Jones's eclectic basement restaurant, established some time in the '70s), but where it sometimes seems not much has happened ever since.
What the area has most particularly lacked in recent times is a gastopub.
The former Page in Pimlico has now been elegantly (but not extravagantly) revamped, and relaunched as such.
Ibérica Farringdon, London EC1 – restaurant review | Marina O ...
food staff ambience drinks
Something happens between my second and third visits to the new Ibérica in Farringdon – yes, I like it that much – that causes me to question my own particular brand of food snobbery.
It's every bit as fun; the staff as charming (one even chases me as I leave, saying, "Nice to see you back, madam"; crikey); the food, a mix of traditional tapas (patatas bravas) and dishes zhuzhed by Manzana's creativity (corn torto fritter with pungent Cabrales cheese and scrambled egg), as fine as before.
The Farringdon version, a Fen bird stewed into what seems to be toughness but is just substance, served with saffron-scented savoury rice and roast piquillo peppers, may not be as life-affirming as its Asturian cousin, but it's a wonderfully earthy, comforting plate of food.
If they keep up the standards, if they continue to lavish giant amounts of loot into creating stunning environments in which to neck fine ham and porróns of godello (those carafe-with-spouts things your parents used to bring back from Spanish holidays), I hope Ibérica spreads through the UK like ripe Cabrales.

Louie Louie, London: restaurant review | Jay Rayner | Life and style ...
drinks food value menu ambience cleanliness
On the corner of a busy road in south London, Louie Louie is a decent café by day which really comes to life after dark Louie Louie, 347 Walworth Road, London SE17 2AL (020 7450 3223).
Full meal for two without wine £60- £80; with wine £100 - £120 There is nothing manicured about south London’s Walworth Road.
And there, on a corner opposite a branch of Iceland, is a café by day, restaurant by night, where they can get things they really should want.
And then, in the name of some disfigured obsession with the word “natural”, you’ve written a wine list short on choice, heavy on price and occasionally cratered by the noxious and foul.
Wright’s Food Emporium, in Llanarthne, Wales, is another café by day which on Friday and Saturday nights becomes a restaurant.
