The Best Vegetarian Burger in London (that's also the World!)

The task has been long, the work has been round the clock, but I am very pleased to pronounce the winner!


Well done (literally) to Exeter Street's Joe Allens! I can't believe it, we have been going there since 1985! and they have only just entered the competition during the final draw...

So without further ado I will mention the proud winners of the 2nd and 3rd prize (and my unbiased choice of runner up!) before describing the burgers! (the fleshy part of the story... groooan!)


2nd place is awarded to Tom Conran's Lucky 7
3rd to the ever popular Lexington Street joint, Mildreds

and my undescriminated against runner up (think 'nuff said already) is to The Veggie Table. (Beware!) har har har...

.....

So in reverse order (though I will keep it brief, because you definietly will be wanting to eat the winner:

The Heavenly Halloumi and the Super Veg burgers at the Veggie Table are both good.

The HH is made predominantly of a greek cypriete cheese (that would be halloumi) with some carrot and other veg so goes nice n Melty.

And the Super Veg is, as they describe it, Nutty-Grainy-Spicy. Made from the grain Quinoa it is suprisingly nutritious although it is cooked from frozen, which is not ideal. But tasty (I was suprised) and full of protein.. its not bad for a runner up! Good with creamy houmous if you're really going to go! (£4 for one in a bun or for two to go)


Mildreds is Brilliant. A little too crowded, but behing located in the filmy part of Soho this is not suprising. Many other alternatives which are always super good, but we came to talk about the burger which seems not to fail! Made from different vegetables (it changes.. beetroot.. many things) It usually tastes of much more than the basics. Great Texture. Not sure about the price these days.. but it comes with very thick cut potatoes and basil mayo. Takeaways possible too.

Lucky 7, oh what a diner!
Let's find you a picture... (to the right)


Burger's.. very good, as with chips and the best milkshake made in a choice of three thicknesses with organic I Scream.


And Joe Allen's.. squeezed right at the VERY bottom... but the burger is the very best.

Super buzzy but relaxed atmosphere for those of you not yet acquainted. In the heart of theatre land, dimmed, brick interior filled with posters, candles, little alcoves.

And what better, than a moist, tasty, succulent warm burger, with wasabi mayo and little string fries... eaten with the best company.......

Yellow!

Is it the eclipse that has made everyone so friendly today?

Anyway I will continue in the spirit of appreciation that has been offered to me today whilst teaching yoga at the Mariott's club in County Hall.
Yes I'm in London, for those of you who asked, thank you all for writing :-) that was really nice.

So have decided that dance is cool, a way to flow and have taken up pole, belly and contemporary dance classes across London.

A short video from Elena of the pole dancing school I am going to:



Photographing a sweet band at the mo, promo shots and things like this.. maybe I should have rescheduled the shoot for today? thus bringing a charming smile, versus their hard core scowel.

So teaching yoga, photography, juggling sausages, sassy spirals in glittery heels in dim lit basement clubs and high up in skylit studios barefoot for the release technique, the yoga of now.

Still hoping to study japanese, running in the meantime and yes.. some culture. Two operas last week at the ROH: Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Un ballo in Maschera.
