Boisdale is Scotland's revenge on the English, says critic

Matthew Norman has suggested that Boisdale of Belgravia might be a patriotic Scot's "act of vengeance against the English for the centuries of abuse and misrule".

The Guardian critic concludes that "Boisdale is purely for those with more money than sense".

Giles Coren at The Times was impressed by Lucknam Park in Colerne, Wiltshire where chef Hywel Jones has been doing his Michelin-starred thing in the kitchens for some time, stating that the "the eating is awesome".
