Restaurant Review - The Landor, Clapham




Restaurant name: The Landor

Location: Clapham, London

Description: Gastropub with its own theatre upstairs. It has a nice outdoor area partly under cover with leather sofas and wooden tables.

Reason for visit: Watching a play based on a novel by Sophie Kinsella at the Landor theatre and meeting Sophie at a book signing- so the obvious choice was to eat here as well.

I ate: Lamb burger topped with halloumi, £9.95

My companion ate: "Pasta of the day" - I forget what the actual dish was.

The food was: Really tasty - though it's worth pointing out that four of the seven items on the main course menu are burgers (the other items are steak, fish and chips and pasta or risotto of the day). I think there was a specials menu as well but there's not a huge amount of choice. That's not actually a bad thing as what this pub does serve, it does really well.

The atmosphere/service was: Very friendly, a nice relaxed pub and service was fast - we told them when we arrived that we only had an hour before the show and that was no problem.

Price range/value for money: Pretty good

Would I recommend it? Yes, definitely if you are going to the Landor Theatre (which I also recommend) - and even if you're not, it's a nice pub and the food is good.

Pink Princess Doll Cake

I love this cake - it's so girly! Yes, this is indeed a cake - or rather, the bottom half of the doll is cake. Her dress is made of fondant and her skirt is a chocolate cake - a delicious vegan recipe. In this post I'll also explain how to use a Garrett frill cutter, a piece of equipment I bought when I took a cake decorating class last year, and also review a brilliant new product I found at Ikea. So how did this cake come about? Well, my friend Ros - who some of you know as The More Than Occasional Baker - decided she wanted a pink princess theme for her birthday party in September. We might be in our 30s but that's no reason not to embrace our inner child... or our inner princess! I was very honoured when she asked me to make her a birthday cake, as Ros is such an amazing baker herself. As soon as she told me the theme I thought of this cake - I'd seen pictures of them before but never made or eaten one. You basically take a doll, like Barbie or Bratz, bake a dome...

Our Wedding at the Larmer Tree Gardens, Wiltshire

Surely these are the ingredients of a perfect wedding: your friends and family, a beautiful and unusual venue, a garden reception with croquet and peacocks, a string quartet to walk down the aisle to, fantastic food (homemade cake followed by a posh barbecue and a trio of desserts), drinks that flowed, an amazing band, photobooth, racing simulator, alpacas, marshmallows over an open fire and fairy lights in the garden.   We had all those things and more when I got married at the Larmer Tree Gardens in Wiltshire in June. I’m originally from Salisbury so we were going to look at wedding venues both around there and near where we live now on the outskirts of London, but we took one look at the Larmer Tree – the first potential venue we visited – and knew it was the one.   The gardens were created in 1880 and were the first privately owned gardens to be opened to the public – they are now recognised by English Heritage as a Garden of National Importance.
