Express Lunch 2 courses £11.50 , Ala carte £30pp
I wish I worked closer to central London (or anywhere that does half decent food) because as much as I enjoy the usual paneer tikka, I do daydream about a ‘come and and laze around’ steak house. Luckily, I get Friday afternoons off and I was in the mood for some real ‘come laze around and read paper’ action along the Chelsea strip.
I had heard great things about Sophie’s – in particular – their express lunch menu: 2 courses for only £11.50 and that includes a choice for a small slab of ribeye (me favourite cut). This steakhouse is abit of a cult favourite and it’s high time I paid a visit.
Freebies
For a bon vivant, I can be a cheapskate sometimes. Though, I’d like to think of myself as the post-credit crunch non-yuppie who has displaced excessivity with conservativity and has become a seeker of true value.
Well, something like that anyway.
The free salami appetiser was surprisingly good, it was silky and soft, it’s nuttiness melted in my mouth and had me wanting more, though my pride stopped me from ordering another one. I spotted a table of newspapers, and they have the Times!
Extra salami points for that.
