Review: The Fromagerie Cheese Shop & Tasting Cafe (Marylebone)

Over here at Greedy HQ we love cheese. Unfortunately, there isn't a decent cheesemonger to be found in Camden for love nor money, or certainly not one that we know of.

However, at the bottom of Regent's Park nestled next to our other favourite supplier, the Ginger Pig, in the heart of affluent Marylebone lives this little treasure.

Simply named La Fromagerie, this place is a real gem. It's part-deli part-tasting cafe and has the most amazing cheese room around. Full of all sorts of cheeses from all over the world, it's not cheap but always good and you won't be disappointed. Especially if you try the Epoisse.

Trust us.

It's amazing.

Address: 2-6 Moxon Street, Marylebone, London W1U 4EW

Review: The Crown and Goose on Arlington Road

The Crown and Goose is a real gem in Camden Town that despite being very central is often overlooked. Don't get me wrong, this pub is certainly buzzing at peak times, but is still relatively unknown by a lot of Camdenites.

Review: Oliver's Fish & Chips on Haverstock Hill

Every good neighbourhood deserves a good Chippie, and Camden's finest is hands down Oliver's Fish and Chips on Haverstock Hill.

Take your pick from cod, haddock, tuna or salmon (to name but a few) either in the traditionally battered style or coated in Matzo breadcrumbs, prepared right there and then in front of you. And if that doesn't tickle your fancy, then also offer a great selection of fish on the grill - simply pick a fish and a sauce/ topping and you're good to go.

The food is delicious and the setting is lovely, and if Haverstock Hill is too far to travel then on the weekends you can also find them at Camden Lock market.

It's worth noting that this is a fish and chip shop that truly lives up to it's name, there are no pukka pies or battered sausage to be found here, so fish haters beware. However, for all you Celiacs out there you will be happy to learn that Wednesdays are Gluten-free. Cool, huh? 

And guess what? They even do home delivery. 

Review : Kerb at Kings Cross

Last night, Mr. Greedy Cochon and I headed over to the newly developed area of King's Cross next to Central Saint Martins for the launch party of Kerb.

Kerb is the new collection of street food vendors that has replaced Eat Street. It's open Mondays-Fridays from 11am-2:30pm. If you're in the area it's well worth checking out, last night there was a huge choice of food from the like of The Rib Man, Pizza Pilgrims, Yum Bun and loads more.

To find out who is around you can follow them on Twitter or head over to their website.

Review : The Colonel Fawcett Pub

At the beginning of September, the Colonel Fawcett celebrated it's 1st birthday since it's grand opening back in 2011 and my what a year it's been. There have been secret concerts, comedy gigs, birthday bashes and gin galore, but mostly there has been great, delicious, traditional pub food.

Review : Breakfast at Camden Bar & Kitchen

Mr. Greedy Cochon and I have been searching a good fry-up in Camden for a while. In fact, at one point we had even given up entirely and settled for the ubiquitous Wetherspoon, up until we saw a huge rat scuttling about inside.

So we are happy to say that after having it on our 'to do' list for a while, we finally found the time to head over to Camden Bar & Kitchen to sample their fabulous breakfast offerings. Verdict - we have found a winner.

Review : Goat's Cheese Salad at The Blues Kitchen

Ok, so normally I wouldn't post a review for just one dish but I have to make an exception for this one. I am totally addicted to Goat's cheese... seriously... I do not understand people who don't like goat's cheese. I especially love Goat's cheese salad.

Review : Sunday Roast at the Lock Tavern

Chances are if you live in or around Camden then you have heard of the Lock Tavern. It is by far one of Camden's coolest pubs, often showcasing up-and-coming DJ's and new indie groups that only your most hipsterific friends have heard of.

The pub in itself has a relaxed shabby-chic vibe inside, plus there is a heated beer garden out the back AND a roof terrace.

Review : Namaaste Kitchen Camden

Nestled amongst the pubs, estate agents and pet shops of Parkway in Camden Town is the fantastic little Indian restaurant called Namaaste Kitchen. 

Review : Goodfare Italian Restaurant

Goodfare Italian Restaurant is a great pizza place on Parkway right smack bang in the middle of Camden Town.
