Daylesford Farmhouse & Cafe (Notting Hill)

• The car park bursting with super cars and all the staff gliding around looking immaculate without a worry in the world
• Some fabulous cakes and bakery which you must pick up if you are in the area
• Weekends get especially busy but if you are not fussed about waiting or sharing a long table they serve fresh
• Rubbing shoulders with some of London's elite and dreaming of a life which is quite frankly unattainable
• Hell just one of these Ferraris or Rolls Royce's parked on the street is worth more than double my annual salary
• What makes me stay is most certainly my stomach because shopping is hard going and so I find myself in the hub of activity known as Westbourne Grove looking for a place to dine
• It's hard for me to really define what Daylesford Farm is because it's basically everything selling anything from organic fruit and vegetable
• Raw autumn vegetables with avocado oil and cider vinegar and a raw coleslaw of carrot
• Beetroot and cabbage with roasted cashew nuts
• Ginger and soy dressing (yes this is ONE salad) and a meat dish of corned beef hash with fried egg &
• The salad was tasty and health giving but the beef hash was just aaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing
• The meat was so tender and juicy it just melted in your mouth and the act of chewing was almost surplus to requirement
• The beauty and perfection with which products are presented is amazing
• Lovely for foodies and people that really become excited with places that meet this variety of excellent products
• At approximately 2pm yesterday there was a 45 minute queue at the four different places we tried to get into on Westbourne Grove
• I opted for poached eggs on toast with smoked salmon
• The spinach was seasoned and cooked well
• My friends all had a selection of salads which I was told were good apart from the squash
• The creme fraiche was the perfect accompaniment to de richify the nemesis
• Even though reviews are pretty good
• These salads are really something
• So I got stuck with egg soldiers
• M ready to bet they too are fashion statements
• It looks no less slick and polished than the nearby shops with food and drink appendages
• The one I notice most often is a portly middle aged man
• Pack a basket with a week&rsquo
• Rather than Average Joes with 9 to 6 jobs
• More sustainable lifestyle is anything but a privilege for those who can afford it
• S reaction at the sight of me and my friend sitting down with our cups of coffee
• No one had cared to explain that we were meant to just take our styrofoam cups and bugger off
• T asked if we were staying in
• Visiting for lunch was an entirely different experience
• Tender fish combined with well roasted potatoes
• The restaurant is located at the back of the organic food grocery shop
• The waiters serving at the bar where we were seated are clean shaven and the waitresses have tidy hair
• You can feel that all the ingredients were hand picked in the morning
• The food tastes very good and you can tell that each ingredient is of top quality and much care has been put from the gardening process down to the plates being served
• Not only the atmosphere is pleasantly refreshing
• A meal that is good for the soul as much as for your stomach is
• I really like how there is a little organic grocery shop in front of the restaurant
• I had the buttermilk pancakes but the beetroot jam that came with it was way too much I scraped most of it off
• The sourdough bread was quite nice as well
• Passing by early Saturday morning the restaurant was packed and queues were forming around the corners of the street
• Heading along up to Westbourne Grove I saw people outside Daylesford Farmhouse and cafe with dogs on leashes
• Right at the back is the café
