Paid a visit to the Boundary Restaurant in Shoreditch. I’ve been to the Boundary many times before, but only to the fab Boundary Rooftop when summer occasionally makes an appearance in London (though they do cater to all weather with outdoor fireplace, Swedish style blankets, straw cowboy hats and even the optimistic sunscreen) and the ground floor Albion (a very British caff which serves really delicious and inexpensive grub such as Welsh rarebit, savoury pies, rhubarb crumble, etc.). Oh, and there is a 21 room hotel too!
On the menu for the night:
- 3 each of French and English Rock oysters (salty but nice)
- Steak tartare (pictured), served with a green salad and french fries
- Tarte Tatin (slightly disappointing as the apples should have been super-caramelised and sticky but the pastry was perfect).
Had some lovely company for dinner with a combo of Irish, Australian, and English - and for once the acoustics in this cavernous basement restaurant were decent (since my voice wasn’t hoarse but the end of the evening).
