Comments on: Le Pont de la Tour, Shad Thames, London http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/09/14/la-pont-de-la-tour/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

The chicken was good though and I thought my egg entree was good. Just not the sundae and fool (I think a staple on Conran set menus). Hi blythe-I think they rely on the view and atmosphere a lot.

Perhaps they use the better ice cream for the other desserts (non set menu ones). Hi grace-Haha yes my entree was a very visually arresting sight!

I'm quite sad that the food was bad, especially the vanilla ice cream. There's no excuse for bad ice cream. What a disappointment!

Worse if it was expensive! Hi Cappucino-Yes the view and setting was lovely. Perhaps if we stumped up for the costlier side it might have been better. Who knows! :) Hi JustJENN-I really wanted to like it too! :lol:
