Pigging Out

Recommendation of the week has got to go to The English Pig, which has recently set up base 5 minutes from Parliament Square after leaving its original home in Barbican. Hidden behind the doors of 4 Millbank, the restaurant's new home - The Atrium - is spacious, bright and airy with slow-roasted pork belly to die for. Pork pate, shoulder of pork and pigs ears are some of the other pig based offerings.

And a post-pig walk passed the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben illuminated at night was a lovely way to close a thoroughly British evening.
