London Food Quest – Back To Basics
Sunday, August 24th, 2008
Back to Basics is one of my favorite fish restaurants in London. Based in Noho in a quiet side street just off Great Titchfield Street it has lots of tables outside and not many cars passing by. The fish is delivered daily and the menu is always varied.
Inside, the decor is pretty average. The staff are awful – sleepy Polish girls with bad English and no energy, so you’ll be lucky to get your drinks within half an hour.
But, once the wait is over and the food arrives, it’s all worth it. I had tiger prawns with garlic to start with and skate with butter and caper sauce. Divine. The wine list is pretty good too.
