Who knew the Manolo crew would go to such lengths (and leave Zone 1) to sample the man's latest feat. Even the best of Belgravia are braving the streets of Balham en force to test-drive his newest affair. The menu is simple: seafood and sausages, burgers and brunch, but in typical Nick Jones style, there's also caviar, oysters and first-rate vino on offer to set this place apart from the generic gastro mass. Dancing on tabletops is optional. It may not have the frisson of his other haunts (what, no Ectasy at children's b-day parties?), but this playground doesn't insist on paid membership, so it may be your only chance to rub shoulders with the Jones' without selling your firstborn.
