The gastro explosion: will nothing stop it? Well, not if King Eddie's is anything to go by. This place should be the blueprint for all the crappy gastro-joints popping up across London.
In a beautiful 19th Century listed building, King Eddie's does proper ales, has a better than average wine list, and serves up a nicely limited selection of mouth-wateringly simple British fare. And it's not irritating about food provenance or particularly expensive: brilliant!
