Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Good Review for French-Trinidadian Restaurant on Hornsey High Street

The following picked up on the wires from a Warner Estate* resident, and shared with the author's permission
We went to this Le Pot de Terre on Hornsey High Street Friday night. It's a terrific restaurant and I just wanted to share with you how much we loved it.
Alasdair Fraser, the owner and chef, has an impressive culinary background having cooked in a number of high-end French restaurants and has combined those experiences with his Mom’s Trinidadian influence to create a unique style.
I had a breast of duck that was perfectly cooked and the cod and plantain starter was delicious.
Unfortunately the cheesecake for dessert also went down a treat.
This guy is brave to be opening a restaurant in this economic climate and at this location and is keeping his prices super low in order to make a go of it.
I encourage you to support him and doubt very much that you will be disappointed!
Bon Appetite!

I got the menus and opening times earlier today by doing just that but the icon seems to have disappeared. Website problems?

I went with my wife yesterday. The food was exceptionally good. We had the 3 courses plus coffee lunch for £15, and given the quality of the cooking I'd challenge anyone to find a better value offering locally. Particular highlights were the mutton curry and the lime cheesecake, but the menu was very varied and all six dishes we had were excellent.
The a la carte menu also seemed very good value, and there's a kids menu with both smaller portions of the main menu and some specific 'child-friendly' options.
As well as being a talented chef, the guy who runs it is very friendly, and he said he'd try to find a moment to say 'hi' on here (I mentioned this thread).
I'll certainly be going back, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone else.
