Le Caprice

Tuesday, November 27, 2012 - I wasn't wild about C's shrimp burger, either. It was such an obvious homage to an American diner that I was expecting something luscious and spangly and exciting but, despite the chilli kick of its mayo, the burger itself was so boring I lost interest in the middle of masticating, like a cow distracted by a fly. My chargrilled squid with diddy tomatoes, artichoke and rocket was much zingier and fresher, the squid was good and perky, the artichokes tasted rich, woody and sincere. Nevertheless, it wasn't the most memorable outing of squid I've ever had, or even had this month.
