Petersham Nurseries for lunch at the Tea House.

I just wanted to remind you, and you know who you are, to go to Petersham Nurseries if you have not yet been. I realize that it's quite dear to eat in the restaurant. And that it's a bit far away.
But you know what?
There's nothing like it.
It's gorgeous, enchanting, delicious,
and you can get there by boat or Overground, not just Rail. So there. Easy-peasy.
Need a photographic prod? Here, take a gander.



As a reminder, the cafe serves food just as delicious as the restaurant, but not nearly as expensive.
It's open Wednesday - Sunday 12 Noon - 2:45 pm

I realize there's a notion that expensive eateries are more firmly grounded than more reasonable ones, but I am here to state for the record, as a chef and friend of many a restaurateur, places like Petersham Nursuries need continual support to remain who they are striving to be. The food here is clean, bright, fresh, hearty, nourishing and made with love.
And the Eccles Cakes are not half bad either. {I have knowledge from the inside.}



I hope you make it out here. If you go for the first time because I've leaned on you, can you let me us know what you thought?

Cameron and I went for the first time because you leaned on us.

It was the first real meal we ate on our last trip to London, and a thoroughly magical experience. A true highlight of our trip, in every sense. Even the adventure of getting there and back was a pleasure.

I'm anxious to do it again -- having seen what they can do in the dead of winter, I can only imagine the pleasures that await in summertime.

We blogged it on Married with Dinner. [sl edit: I have placed the link to MwD's post about Petersham in such a way so that if you click on her name you will be brought to the post.]

Thank you for sharing your finds with us.

i dream about going there someday!
