Friday after work Will and I decided to meet at Canary Wharf for a movie - South African Neill Blomkamp's District 9.Since the movie only started at 9, we had 2 hours to kill, so we opted to try out Jamie Oliver's new restaurant - Jamie's Italian. *WOW* It was like we were back on the continent! We had a fabulous Vegetable Antipasta Plank for starters with seasonal vegetables; Italian cheeses with pickled chillies and green and black olives. For mains I had Truffle Tagliatelle and Will had Ravioli Caramelle which was stuffed with pumpkin and ricotta cheese with breadcrumbs, parmesan and rosemary sauce.
But still we couldn't stop ourselves and also had espresso and tiramisu for afters!
The restaurant was really relaxed, the staff attentive, the food fabulously flavoured and the cost well within budget. Surprisingly unpretentious. We look forward to our next visit.
The movie was great too :)
