Crib de Rib (South Kensington)

• We started with a Crab Tian (£
• Chives and white wine vinegar) but was slightly disappointing in that it had only three small slices of squid with big piles of dressed rocket decorating the plate
• A pleasant dish to experience but I was expecting more squid for a starter
• 14.50) came with a tiny dish of crisp apple and carrot coleslaw but had a slightly too sweet generic recipe BBQ sauce for our liking
• It possibly could have done with some more spicing in the sauce to help balance out the sweet elements which would have also complemented the natural sweetness from the pork
• The spicy sea bass was beautifully presented
• All fanned out and was an array of colours with the three spicy chillies
• Our Spicy Sea Bass (on the left) with the Signature Pork Ribs (on the right) and our side salads in the background on the pass
• It could have probably done with either sour or tart notes to balance the sweetness from the cheesecake
• Shame though that the Panna Cotta was not ready (not available for another 50mins from when we ordered our desserts) as we had set our hearts on trying this
