Ep 12 – 15 Feb 2017 – ..with Dave G and Martin C..
…Might have been the first time.. sure it won’t be the last!!.…
Location: Bill’s Islington, 9 White Lion St, London N1 9PD
Order: 2 x Minute Steak specials, 1 x BBQ Ribs, 1 x Burger
Review: 4/5
Comment: You know what you’re getting with a Bill’s. Nice at all times of day, but do a surprisingly good job of making the venue seem intimate at night. Really good food and good fun with the team, especially given we were all running a bit over time. There’s a reason we often do Bill’s. Consistently good, good, good.
