Brixton Village Grill









Brixton Village Grill Grill is Portuguese and English cuisine restaurant that serves seasoned flavoursome food. Not having no food all day, appetite was overly big, stomach growls and all. So had to be done three course meal. Starters- Piri piri prawns with rocket salad. Prawns was succulent, oozing with spices that just sat well with my palette. Rocket salad with cheese complimented the dish. Main Meal- Chargrilled spring chicken served with chips and salad. My friend ordered piri piri lamb chops with chips and basamati rice. Generous portions, overwhelmed with how big my dinner was, dawned on me could I eat all this, and yes I did completed it. The chicken was cooked just right, once again well seasoned. Liked the chips and the salad giving it a nice balance. My friend enjoyed his, I had a taste being a foodie that I am have to try, lamb chops wasn't over cooked, juicy. The rice soft fluffy right consistency. Drinks- Had cheeky sangria also tap water as always need water where ever I am. Could of easily drank more sangria but I was being good girl, needless to say was a fan, wasn't bitter or sour how some can be or overpowered with alcohol, had the right amount of sweetness. Dessert- Dime bar cheesecake. If you have sweet tooth like me, this is for you. Nice little treat, naughty dish, worth the guilt. Overall- The waiters are attentive, good service, no complaints.

The restaurant is situated in Brixton Village.

Ps- This was before I was hospitalised, wanted to blog about it some time ago however due to misfortunes this was delayed.

Honest Burgers (Brixton)


Me and my usual moody face lol.



Happy now- feed me.

After seeing reviews and hearing the buzz about this place, me being a lover of burgers had to check out what all the fuss was about. When we got there it was 20 minute wait, so killed time walked around Brixton market and Brixton Village seeing all the new places to eat as it's changed quite fair amount since last time been in the area. Once table was available we received a text message to say table is ready for us, which I thought was good, so know what's happening, officiant. So now it's time for drinks and FOOD. 

Ordered  beef, red onion and lettuce with leicester cheese burger with their house chips (chips comes with the meal). Must I say chips has nice little crunch to it, taste reminds me of crisps like the seasoning of it, so didn't need my usual overload of ketchup to dip my chips in. Now onto the burger as sit here typing this I am now wanting this meal, thoroughly enjoyed the burger, cooked just right, melts in your mouth. Overall the service was good, nice meal out however at the end that killed the evening we got the bill before we even requested it, which threw us off, kind of ruined it, if they just waited only few minutes later we was going to ask for the bill anyway, that wasn't cool. 

Pre warn you as it does get so busy there (in evenings) expect a waiting time, be fully prepared to wait at their peak times. 

However I'm glad I went.
