Dining & Nightlife With David G. Taylor What’s hot DINING & NIGHTLIFE For quality cocktails head to the recently opened bar the Reverend J.W. Simpson in Fitzrovia (pictured), which has the ambience of a private house party. You’ll find all kinds of fizzes, flips, cobblers, smashes and sours ranging from £7.50 to £9, including the prune Manhattan and the tequila and sherry cobbler. Most are mixed right at your table. In case you were wondering, the venue is named after an ordinary vicar who once resided there, and its design incorporates the remnants of his former kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedroom – right down to the torn and tattered original wallpapers. It lends the place a truly unique atmosphere. 32 Goodge Street, W1. 020 3174 1155. revjwsimpson.com Ë Goodge Street. Map B5. New additions to <strong>London</strong>’s food scene Among a raft of recent restaurant openings, Holborn’s Garufin (pictured top left) and Soho’s Disiac stand out by offering something a little different. Garufin is a South American restaurant and café-bar, specialising in Argentinian cuisine from the Noroeste region in the north, to Patagonia in the south. Highlights include the much-loved national dish of locro (a stew of pumpkin, pulled pork, beef and chorizo) and campo (chorizo, spicy beans and toast). 5-27 Theobalds Road, WC1. 020 7430 9073. Ë Holborn. Off map. Meanwhile, Disiac is a small but funky seafood and champagne bar with a Mediterranean flavour. Dine in on freshly-made Italian dishes like burrata cheese salad (pictured far left) and hearty strozzapreti pasta (near left). A Tuesday night supper club offers changing themes and a four-course meal with wines to match for £38 per person. On Thursday evenings there’s live jazz, while on Friday and Saturday nights you’ll find a resident DJ creating an uplifting party vibe. 6 Greek Street, W1. 020 7734 3888. disiac london.com Ë Tottenham Court Road. Map B5. Eyre Brothers If you’re craving a little Mediterranian heat to punctuate the January chills, you should definitely head east to Eyre Brothers. In the cosy but chic setting, an array of Spanish and Portugese dishes is coupled with a selection of warming delicacies from all around the world. There is a spicy twist to the flavours that reflects the owners’ (siblings Robert and David Eyre) Mozambican upbringing, which is a real treat for the taste buds. From the tapas at the bar to the mouthwatering acorn-fed Ibérico pork (a family favorite), or the sizzling tiger prawn piri-piri, the quality of the food and wine left us enchanted. ££-£££ Review by Tim Benton 70 Leonard Street, EC2. 020 7613 5346. eyrebrothers.co.uk Ë Old Street.
