Parisian-style family dining (& celeb spotting) at Le Relais de Venise in Marylebone
By Catherine O'Dolan on 21/07/2010 17:11:17
There's no menu but the food is great at this family-friendly restaurant that's great for celebrity spotting
to save space for dessert, the only part of the menu that offers any choice. And a very tasty one it was with ice creams, crème brûlée and various cream and meringue confections. So is it worth the queuing? You may have to stand in line for up to 30

Local boy done good, Jamie Oliver, returns to his British roots with this hip new diner
with wine from Chapel Down Winery in Kent.And in keeping with Jamie’s cheeky chappie reputation, the staff are friendly. We couldn’t wait to sample the unusual homemade ice creams at £1.50 a scoop (60p for children): Marathon/Snickers Bar, Earl Grey Tea

A fiesta of fresh, authentic flavours from Masterchef's Thomasina Miers
by ice creams all round – vanilla with caramel sauce for the children, and a delicious salted caramel with shavings of dark Valrhona chocolate for me. All swiftly delivered and downed leaving plenty of time to shop nWahaca White City, 1074 Westfield

The Even Keel Café at the Cutty Sark
By Catherine O'Dolan on 26/06/2012 16:07:41
An illustrious icon of British history serving equally memorable fare
Keel, where we tucked into delicious Fish Stew that would do any sailor proud, and Tomato Pasta, followed by a rather cheeky Chocolate Chilli Cake and Jude’s Ice Cream. As befits the ship’s history, you must partake of a cuppa char – why not try

Restaurant review: Zilli Fish
By Catherine O'Dolan on 01/02/2011 16:51:49
The affable Italian chef proves chic seafood and family dining go together like fish and chips
of your five-a-day. With Joe starting to falling asleep, sadly there was no time to try the home-made Italian ice cream. Next time, we will endeavour to rectify that one. Let’s hope the gelato is good. Zilli Fish, 36–40 Brewer Street, London W1F 9TB, tel
