Review of Barfly

Up and coming bands 
The Strokes, Razorlight and The Libertines all played at this tiny Camden venue before the release of their debut albums. A comfy venue for those interested in seeing the 'next big things' before they become the next big things.

Review of Akasaka Restaurant

Delicious Japanese 
This restaurant is hidden from view tucked in behind Golders Green. Lovely interior with proper Japanese art and a good sushi bar. Friendly (if a little hesitant with the english language) waitresses and outstanding food for fair prices.

A slice of Nawlins
This 'Nawlins' restaurant was absolutely superb. Excellent food, friendly waiters and even steak-eating contests: a full American experience in the most English place.

Review of Rokit

Viiiintage
I have been scowering the streets of London in search of good vintage clothing and stumbled across Rokit the other day.The clothing available has evidently been discarded by the pickiest ex-owners in the world and is very cheap. Jeans, army jackets, cowboy boots, belts and hats make this vintage shop as good as they get...the in-store music is also very good (red hot chili peppers etc.) and complements the shopping experience.

Review of Cineworld

Chavs + Milkshakes 
Having gone to a film (I forget which one) with some mates we saw another group of kids near the front of the cinema. They lobbed a whole milkshake onto the screen and I watched it gloop down over the actor's faces to raucous laughter. Cue small janitor using a ladder to mop up the damage. If you want a proper movie experience don't go here.

Review of Ginos

Free on the day of their daughter's wedding!
Ever wanted to get your hair cut by sports enthusiasts who seemingly pay as much attention to their clients as to the plasma screen on the back wall? Another reason for getting your hair cut here is wanting to meet the men who just didn't make the cut of the original cast of The Godfather. The banter and the thick Sicilian accents coupled with the talent and the enthusiasm of the staff make this barbershop in the heart of London a quality choice.

Review of Fine Burger Co
25 Jun 07, 11:17
Tasty food, not such tasty seating
The burgers and side dishes will have you fit to burst which is unfortunate due to the strange Dali-esque seating on offer. While consuming a hefty American meal your back will crane under the pressure of the seats which render you not dissimilar to a hermit crab.

Review of Fopp

Big glass house
The shop itself seemingly appeared overnight, looking out over Camden Lock, replacing the skate shop that used to be there. The products are mostly grouped by price and you will be surprised by how cheap some of the things actually are. Sometimes quite famous bands play small sets in-store and do signings afterwards (they will sign ANYTHING).
