Gilgamesh!

[bohemian]

No, I am not referring to the guy behind the Babylonian myths, but the restaurant in Camden, North London, where I took my wife for lunch today.

We had the dim sum lunch - 3 dishes for £12 lunch special, so we had 6 different dishes followed by coffee.

Tom kha gai soup, salmon sashimi, duck spring rolls with hoisin sauce, egg fried rice, crispy squid and son-in-law eggs with chili jam!

The restaurant is amazing: check out the website.

A few pictures of my own to show the chairs etc.:

The market at Camden Lock is fantastic too. That needs another thread!

This looks like a place I where I would love to eat!  Alas ... I live so far away.

Let's make it a date Norma! Maybe just in our dreams for now. But I will meet you there tonight, after I brush my teeth, wash my face say my prayers and go to sleep. Just the other side of midnight my sweet!

Hi Christopher.

 

Everytime we go to London we visit the restaurants area at Camden and everytime we are fascinated. Last time was a few months ago, and we saw that restaurant. The outside of it is quite impressive too, but we didn't come in.

 

We are making plans to visit London again by the end of April, and surely we will be having dinner at Gilgamesh. Maybe this time we will also get to catch the British Museum Bible tour, at last (this is the third or fourth attempt). Thank you for posting the pictures!

That would have been good too.
