darth_hamster and I are just back from a meal at the St John Restaurant. Unlike Archipelago, where we ate a few weeks ago and which specialises in conventional bits of unusual animals, St John specialises in making use of all bits of the animals on the menu. Mind you, there's a bit of unconventional stuff too; I've not seen cuttlefish offered up for a good while. There will probably be a more comprehensive review later, but I'll note that not only is the food excellent, but if you manage (as we did) to sit next to a large group who ordered in advance you get the entertainment of watching them tackle whole crab followed by suckling pig - including head. Not cheap, but highly recommended if you are emphatically carnivorous and don't mind the prospect of dinner looking at you.darth_hamster and I are just back from a meal at the St John Restaurant.
