Quotes Logan Wallace : Have you ever thought about how, like, weird open houses are? User reviews 1. Top review. Most of the 1 star reviews articulate the problem really well but if you're still unclear allow me to communicate it in another way. Imagine you walked into your living room and saw Frank Sinatra playing world of warcraft.
Then your neighbour came round several times and said some weird stuff to you. Then your cat takes a dump in your bed and moos at you. Then you start singing the lyrics to YMCA while Eiffel 65 is playing 'I'm blue' in the background So you must be asking yourself, What was the relevance of sinatra and why world of warcraft? Why did my neighbour come around and what did they say? Why did your cat moo and why sing YMCA to a different tune?
The especially pleasant service carried on through the meal, a strong positive feature. Another strong positive is the price. That's good value for decent cooking just off Oxford Street. You will, of course, inevitably end up with a bigger bill once you've been led astray by cocktails, the wine list, coffee, dessert and service, but still very reasonable. The cooking is good, too: not flashy or risky, but sound and focused on known crowd-pleasers. Squid with paprika, chilli, chorizo and olives was the punchiest dish; veal meatballs with lentils was subtle but comforting: either would have been a very successful big plate.
Pork belly had good depth of flavour and came in good-looking chunks — presentation is at a noticeably high level for the cost. A couple of dishes looked pretty but lacked impact: sea bass ceviche was advertised as having lime and chilli, which it did, but it had a lot more yellow pepper, which unhelpfully dialled down the flavour.
Steak tartare, always tricky to balance, was dominated by the taste of chopped gherkin rather than by that of raw meat. It would be great, as the small plate fashion rolls inexorably on, if everywhere that joins the bandwagon does so as professionally as the Riding House Cafe.
We've put together a list of the best stately homes and historic houses around the capital. In our opinion. Yours may differ, and we'd love to hear it below.
Chiswick House is a beautiful neo-Palladian building in a stunning garden setting. It's a slightly dubious inclusion on a list of great homes and houses, as it was never intended as such.
The building was created in as a bold architectural experiment by the Earl of Burlington, who sought somewhere impressive to show off his artwork. You can still find plenty of fine art at Chiswick, but the gardens are the real star, with a series of spectacular features and vistas. Few buildings have a better aspect than Ham House , which nestles on that particularly pleasant stretch of Thames between Richmond and Twickenham Marble Hill House , on the opposite bank, is also worth a look-see, and should get even better soon with the help of a Heritage Lottery grant.
There's plenty to see inside this early 17th century building, now administered by the National Trust. You'll find a fairly typical, if not dazzling, cavalcade of period furniture, paintings and grand gestures. The gardens are well kept and a pleasure to stroll around.
Nearest station: Richmond District Line, mainline, and then a 2 mile walk along the Thames. There's really no excuse for not visiting the Duke of Wellington's former gaff, now in the hands of English Heritage. Number One London, as Apsley House was once pompously addressed, is one of the capital's lesser known art galleries, with hundreds of canvases and a particularly fine collection of porcelain an acquired taste, but here impressive to even the complete pottery numbskull.
The abiding memory is the giant and naked Napoleon statue, whose vanquished frame commands the stairwell like a pet colossus. No other building in the country quite compares with Horace Walpole's mock-Gothic pile of Strawberry Hill , located near Twickenham. It's like a stately home and a cathedral somehow managed to produce offspring, with arched doorways, screens and stained glass round every corner. Tours are popular, and you're encouraged to prebook before your visit.
One of the more famous inclusions, thanks to its prime location on the higher slopes of Hampstead Heath. Kenwood House is certainly worth a visit, especially if you haven't been back since the major renovations of The house contains a fine collection of Old Master paintings in a Robert Adam setting. Look out for outdoor cinema screenings and concerts in the summer.
Sculpture by Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth add to the showy delights. Nearest station: Golders Green, Highgate, Hampstead all Northern Line, and a bit of a trek, if a pleasant trek, from any of them.
