The Modern Pantry (47-48 St John's Square, London, London, EC1V 4JJ)

Hugely ambitious dishes, beautifully presented and very interesting and different. Service mainly pretty good and cosy ambience to the upper floor, more buzzy downstairs. Imaginative offerings of suggested wines by the glass for particular dishes a good (though not cheap) option. Good value champagne as aperitif.

Some dishes were not as hot as they could have been and wine was slow to appear with the matching dishes. Would go again happily though, and thinking of it as a venue for our office Christmas lunch this year.

Bistrot Bruno Loubet at The Zetter Hotel (The Zetter Hotel, 86-88 Clerkenwell Road, London, EC1M 5RJ)

Really imaginative food, beautifully presented. Proper bistro feel to it. Great for offal and unusual cuts. Attentive and professional service and very popular (deservedly so). Reasonable value and good for the quality

J Sheekey (28-32 St Martin's Court, London, London, WC2N 4AL)

Consistently (over the last 28 years) my favourite fish restaurant in London. Maintains a good traditional feel with modern edges. Beautifully fresh seafood and wonderful oysters. Service outstanding and ambience wonderful. The seafood bar was a great addition and a super place to have a simple (and often good value) lunch. Can't praise it enough.

Can manage to serve nearly all tastes on cost and value depending on choice of dish. Excellent white wine list in particular and choices like Menetou Salon can be good value.

Barbecoa (20 New Change Passage, London, London, EC4M 9AG)

Wonderfully sourced meat, fabulous bread and home made scratchings. Service very entertaining and attentive and fab views of St Paul's Cathedral. A real buzz and restaurant pretty full even on a Monday.

Downsides: plates were not hot, food was not hot enough. Would go again for the overall experience. Reasonable value
