A first for the post Rayner Observer. An informed restaurant critic reviewing an interesting new place (in Leeds too). More Jimi Famurewa to come? No next week it’s Philomena Cunk visiting a vegan restaurant in Soho that’s been around 15 years
The Highland Laddie in Leeds is a place of thrilling finesse
The handsome Victorian redbrick was the setting for a spectacularly enjoyable three-hour meal

“A 4% reduction in the UK’s potential GDP (caused by Brexit) puts the 1.4 % growth growth the chancellor is quoting in to context - and that’s in fifty years time”

Is it any wonder business bosses are urging the Prime Minister to move as close as possible to the EU in his “Brexit reset”
In a significant Intervention Bank of England governor said this week that Brexit has undermined the UK economy. @skynews.com.web.brid.gy didn’t think that was important enough to raise with the Government Minister this morning. I disagree. If you do too share this report

Since the news seems to be inescapably grim at the moment, here is a silly distraction: the menu from my excellent lunch at Bouchon Racine yesterday.

Possibly my favourite restaurant in London at the moment. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. First rate.

This week’s restaurant recommendation is London based and can be found right next to Farringdon Station.

Bouchon Racine has received all manner of recommendations and awards. It deserves them all.

You know how people say you don’t need to say you’re leaving the other place? Does the same apply to saying youve arrived here?
