DAYLESFORD
Located at Westbourne Grove with its little shops and cafes it is a beautiful choice for a sunny afternoon or lunch with friends; a hip and sophisticated Notting Hill crowd turns up to this farm shop-cum-brasserie; their chic outfits fit perfectly with the understated decor: whitewashed boarding, stripped wood, and woven baskets overflowing with organic produce; this, the newest "DAYLESFORD" branch, is spread over three floors, with a raw bar in the basement, a bustling café on the ground floor and a larder of fabulous produce from the home farm in Gloucestershire upstairs; the menu is limited, but has enough to tempt: buttery pastries, a nursery food staple such as shepherd's pie, eggs royale with perfect, oozing yolks, and salads for the health-conscious. A raw summer vegetable salad was lifted by fresh mint and a kick of chilli; this is a fantastic place for brunch! If you have any issues being surrounded by gorgeous children dressed better than you are, this is not the spot for yoU
