Powder Keg Diplomacy (Battersea)

• Going down the cocktail route with the Colonial Cocktail (Tanquery gin
• Followed by an oven roasted trout with fennel and spring onions and a side of chips
• Grab one of their four person tables on a quiet night and sit next to each other with the room as your stage
• Re activating your Uber app with plans to take them back to your shared flat in Brixton
• PKD is probably the best thing about the area
• Our curiosity waved beyond the bar list our appetites were definitely aroused
• 19) offering was a combination of rump and shoulder
• I'm not sure whether the pork belly was a permanent fixture on the menu or a special plat du jour
• It was deliciously served with super creamy mash
• That crackling was such a hit and if they'd have an appetiser made of this I reckon I'd be dying of cholesterol by now
• 28 day air hung piece of steak served with thrice cooked chips
• A man in chef whites came back with my third plate of steak
• He looked at me with such indignation and said that the fillet comes out 'medium rare' when you ask for it to be cooked 'rare'
• The third fillet was almost there but not quite
• 30 for a plate of fillet may be a bargain compared elsewhere but when your stomach is yearning and churning for a good piece of meat
• The seasoning was actually spot on and the meat tasted dreamy
• The extra serving of thrice cooked chips they gave us were quite sweet too
• The cocktails are great and got interesting twist
• Not hearty the omelette was superbe as was the bloody mary (many twists available
• Overall i love the vibe just wish it was a little more affordable
• So Powder Keg Diplomacy was just in the right place at the right time
• Also as my friend was over from America
• I thought the Victorian inspired decoration was a nice touch
