Jan Moir finds Tom Aikens commitment to sustainability at Tom’s Place commendable but the experience too greasy, too expensive and too preachy.

Jay Rayner heads to Manchester to Paul Heathcote’s latest venture Grado but finds it lost in translation, rating the restaurant’s look but finding the food served inconsistent.

Mark Palmer of the Daily Telegraph finds Devon’s Horn of Plenty scarily quiet but Peter Gorton’s food worth shouting about.
