From: Dave Death Category: Art Date: 15 December 2006 Time: 05:59 AM Review: New restaurant part of the redeveloped Spitalfields; glowingly reviewed by AA Gill in the S.Times. I went yesterday lunchtime. For my main course I had roast beef, which was thin, fatty, and not served medium rare as requested. I've had much better cooked by WWR colleagues. Caramel chocolate brownie & ice cream pudding was wonderful, though, and as fattening as I'd hoped. My dining companions both had macaroni cheese - a decent-sized helping, and looked good as far as it goes. Not a great deal of atmosphere to the place, but I just don't like new buildings. It's possible to have an enjoyable meal here, but not an incredible one. http://www.canteen.co.uk
