Choice quotes from AA Gill's restaurant review of the Clerkenwell Dining Room and Bar in today's Sunday Times:
"There's a point where fresh chilli does something erotic to your brain, so while your mouth's screaming 'No, no, stop, stop - for the love of God I'm being tortured to death,' your head's moaning 'Yes, yes, more, more, sear me sear me.'"
"Restaurants are becoming like pop music: it all begins to taste faultlessly the same. The pleasure becomes the comfort of familiarity rather than the surprise of originality, imagination or even eccentricity."
