London Eateries – Vivo bravo, bravissimo!

posted by

OK so to be honest, I’m ordinarily not a big fan of Italian restaurants – being from the carbs are the enemy school of thought and thinking all Italian food revolves around bread and pasta – so I took this review with a sense of trepidation. To ensure a fair jury however, I decided to […]
