the idle hour


had guests in town who wanted to go "outside london" for lunch. the mister and i are in mutual disagreement about what constitutes london. to me, central london stops in zone 1. he's a little more generous. whatever the case may be, i don't think barnes is in london any more than richmond is. but we were feeling lazy and agreed that barnes was sufficiently far away from the madding crowd for the purposes of a suburban lunch. chanced upon this charming hidey hole and we weren't disappointed. the lone waitress was delightfully attentive and the food was fresh and local. it's the small things like that which make all the difference. hope to make it back one weekday night for the live music, but it was a glorious saturday afternoon with the first signs of spring (this post is a few weeks late!) and next time we want to give guests a taste of london that's not quite piccadilly circus, here they go.

(oh and the fries in goose fat were amazing.)
