Best espresso for home brewing?

Thanks Edwardspk. I've had it for just over a month and absolutely love it. Agreed, there's only one item on my Xmas list and that's the Rocky!

I've just bought a Rancilio Silvia after trawling through loads of coffee blogs & sites and these guys names came up a lot for good espresso. Black Cat is the one to go for.

Sunday Roast in London ?

Agreed loobcom. The Eastons pork belly rocks. All the accompaniments are spot on as well.

Name one food item not to be missed in London!

For a traditional Sunday lunch, try the roast pork belly at the Easton.

I've had it many times and the crackling has always been spot on.

Lamb chops & the baby pumpkin curry at Tayyabs

is a must.

name of that spicy Chinatown restaurant that got all the raves a few years back? [London]

It's Bar Shu and it's taking bookings now for reservations from the 30th August.

I love the garlic pak choi, dry fried green beans, gong bao prawns and the hot and fragrant whole crab is to die for. Mmmmmm
