Great pub with great prices 
This is an awesome pub which get rather full on a Thursdays for some bizarre reason.
It could be the atmosphere, could be the location but personally it's the prices :>
Good Sam's Smith beer (no Fosters rubbish ) with no rubbish in it - v nice indeed :>

Review of Wild Honey

New restaurant with a good old tastes
I guess Mayfair restaurants all get tarnished with the same brush but when a place puts a cheese board at center stage then you really must be proud of the stuff you are doing rather than relying on reputation.
All dishes I had were of an excellent quality with enough flavor combinations to excite and interest - pig's head for instance sounds revolting but in reality was a terrine style block of tender meat, great stuff!
I've already mentioned the cheese board and I must say that with the desserts being rather iffy you're much better off going for a few more options from there opposed to going for sugar. (I had both but still - that's why I go to these places!!)
The drink menu is cool, one nice touch is the option to have a small carafe of wine so that you can try more than one and also, I guess save on those pennies. Also allows for more room for cocktails and champagne :>

Review of Masala Zone

Disappointing - many better options availiable in the area 
Now while I can't actually remember how I got here (it was after a fairly heavy drinking session) I can remember how excited I was to be going; and also how disappointed I was by what I ate.
I felt that portions were pretty small and tasted fairly average. People say that the prices are good but I can't really agree for the quality of taste on display.
You can get this food at any other Indian Restaurant in the area for a similar price and be fed better. Be adventurous and do that - stay away the the sparkling lights!!

Review of Hummus Bros

Tasty tasty veg (with meat) 
I always liked the idea of this place but was never sure if I'd like the reality (would chickpeas be too bland to base a meal around!?!?!) - having now been I can happily say that the reality is indeed good!
A big bowl of humus with meat in the middle is a tasty and filling meal; I've seen people complain about prices but it all seemed good to me. I was also really impressed with the pitta breads (totally unlike any pitta I have had before) and salads (fresh, crispy and delicious).
A very cool place for lunch and certainly somewhere to go when you are fancying a change from your standard lunch fair.
