The secret place
It seems quite apt that I cannot remember the name of the secret place. I can tell you that it is near the north exit of Euston Square tube, that it is green and rather nondescript, that it is near where someone works and near where someone else lives. To say more would be to give away too much. It looks like the lobby of a mid-range hotel when you walk in and what you must do is ignore this - and the many TV screens everywhere showing daytime sport - and order a pancake with roquefort and artichoke hearts. Truly this is one of the tastiest dishes that you will have a had in quite some time: a delicious pancake stuffed with smalln chunks of artichoke in a rich, piquant cheesy sauce, with much, much sauce surrounding the pancake as well as inside it. It also comes with a bowl of decently-dressed salad and another bowl of chunky chips. Somehow this place in the most urban of locales is channelling the spirit of a country pub with its food, and all of the above, with tap water and service, comes to £7.50 a head. All you have to do now is to find it.
