I used to work in the Black Cat building (once the Carreras Cigarette Factory) from ’97-’02 and El Parador was a firm favourite for regular lunches and the occasional after-work dinner too.

I continued to visit regularly in the years after I left too, as it’s so handy for me to get to, living on the Northern Line.

I’ve not been much lately, I really ought.

My favourites always included whatever the current chicken liver dish was, and their sweet potatoes. And pretty much everything else, for that matter!

I’ve been working in Camden for months now with absolutely no idea of any where’s good to eat near by. So glad to read this post, I adore tapas and that all sounds so mouth-watering, are those grilled padrón peppers in the top photo? Will definitely have to pop in some time soon, before the sun slinks away.

Sounds excellent, I’m now salivating for anchovies. I’m there.

Mornington Crescent you say? Hmm…Newbury Park.

Lovely review, my mouth is watering unattractively as we speak. Being a delicate, pale flower I’ll join you in the shade there any time!

Broad beans, garlic and anchovies (.. and who isn’t a slut for them?)…Sounds bliss…! Great post! L
