Zoe Williams - 8.5/10

Sunday, August 31, 2008 - I am a sucker for an unmarked doorway that looks like a secret (in this case, a black door with a small silver plaque, to the right of the entrance to Sosho). The East Room treads the line between a highly exclusive members-only joint and a regular restaurant by the surprisingly simple expedient of letting non-members into the restaurant. It is a lovely room - long canteen tables, soft furnishings in intense 1970s browns, high-gloss tiles. It's sexy and retro, a bit like dreaming a porn film through the filter of your childhood.

Went here for a brunch with a group of people, and it was excellent. Quality of the food struck me most, obviously good ingredients and well made. Good selecction of breakfasts, though didn't try the lunches. Service was also very good, attentive but not overbearing.

Price seemed good too, considering the pretty good portions. The place looks great, with a nice terrace bit and lots of good seating. Basically excellent, and want to go back soon.

Gourmet Chick - 7/10

Thursday, December 04, 2008 - Continuing in the sharing spirit, three of us decided to share the "Big Fish" as a main. Monday's fish was snapper, served whole in a large tray with a Mediterranean style red sauce, chunks of scalloped potato, grilled peppers and chorizo (pictured). It was sensationally flavoursome and it all felt very homely sharing from the big roasting dish in the middle of the table. It was like you were at a dinner party at a friend's incredibly cool apartment. Other mains of sirloin steak and mutton shank were pronounced to be equally good.

Friday, October 17, 2008 - Well, after much dilly-dallying on my part, Chris and I finally meet up at The East Room for lunch. He doesn't take any pictures. I do. WIth my Nokia N82, of course…Lamb and veg for him. Linguini with chili crab for me. I like my linguini. To be honest, it's a little pedestrian and mushy. But it's really buttery and luscious and spicy. I'm happy.
