Almost in Havana... and other London, United Kingdom Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: Cuba Libre & Havana Bar

A Lovely Cuban Place restaurant and bar which serves an original Cuban Food. It is all decorated with all Cuban flags and other symbols (like Che' and others) that makes it feel like far from London.
Cuban Music is played and all you have to do is drink your Rum and enjoy the food..
I really loved this place and im sure i'll visit there next time i'll be in London !

Favorite Dish: I love the Black Cuban beans and Rice (just learned how to cook it after i ate that for the first time there), tapas is also good and the drinks of cours. not a fancy food but very good though.

The Creperie of Hampstead

Restaurant Name: Le Creperie De Hampstead

The best Crep you can have in London and probably in England !
This Little Creperie is very famous, they make an awesome excellent (come see the daily line of waiting people).
They close at 23:00 pm (im not sure but i think they start at noon time or 11:00 am),
However dont wait to the last min' before closing as most nights there's a long que and they wont work till late time.
if i could only have one now...hmmm

More about Hampstead in my Hampstead page.

Favorite Dish: Mine ??? oh Crep with Belgian dark chocolate and Banana... oooochhhhhhhh

Restaurant Name: Joe Allen

I would probably wouldn't even notice this nice place, you actually dont really see it from the street as when you enter the place you have to go down the stairs and then you get into a nice dining room...
The credit to that place is to Phil (Phil.Uk.net), Me and Phil made a mini VT meet and after we didnt find the restaurant i wanted (okay i forgot the name of the street and we wasn't sure where it was) we walked till we arrive to this retaurant which is one of Phil's favorites.

They have a nice small menu, nice atmosphere and avarage prices.
