Myles' review of Meson Don Felipe

The reason why I've added such an awful rating is because it was. The food was the most appalling attempt at Spanish cooking I have ever seen. Even the waiter was embarrassed. We ordered Pan Catalan – it came served as 3 sliced pieces of Sunblest bread (or Pan Bimbo if you are Spanish) and a pot of tinned tomato. I complained and was told that barra bread was only available if you bought Jamon Serrano! I then ordered Higaditos de pollo – chicken livers in sherry. Have you seen the size of a chicken ?- well the livers aren't very big. We got calves liver, cut up into cubes in gravy. It was quite revolting. The manager said she didn't know what chicken livers were like as she didn't eat meat. I actually gave the waiter who served us a tip because i felt so sorry for him. He was Spanish and horrified by what he was serving but said the majority of English people didn't notice. The owners should try wandering around London and see places like Moro, Barra Fina, and Brindisa and look at the competition. I wouldn't touch this place with a foot long chorizo.
