We Found Gold in Notting Hill
/WHAT IS IT?
A three-storey house serving yummy Mediterranean food in the midst of Portobello Road & Market. You would miss it between all those trinkets shots if it weren’t for its crazy eye looking facade!
WHERE IS IT?
WHY GO?
Because as you step food in here, you are transported far away from the crowds outside. Everybody is gorgeous and you feel gorgeous as a result. A dark area for intimate gatherings and a cozy conservatory on the back for those wanting a relaxed meal with friends. It feels like a jungle out there! The food is an explosion of flavours (our favorite) and the customer service is superb, very attentive.
On our latest visit we started with a glass of Moet (like any good feast would) and few of the starters on offer, of which we highly recommend the aubergine with ricotta. Oh Mamma. For mains, the rabbit tortellini transport you back to Italy and the grilled chicken with ham, nduja sauce and sourdough bread makes you feel naughty and great. Finish up with the raspberry cream dessert and a coffee and you’ll be done for the day.
Little peace of advice: if you like long meals with no rush, then this is your place. Book one of the last services for lunch and you’ll make it to dinner time without even realising! That happened to us.
WHEN TO GO?
If you thought it couldn’t get any better, you wait for it. Gold is open ALL week from midday (noon) to midnight all week! And Friday and Saturdays til 1am! Pleasure to your ears and belly.
Enjoy my dears,
