Best plate of the night goes to the pig cheeks with hazelnuts and mash 15). Such a lovely combo. We also had the beef short rib with parsnip mash 14). We sampled a variety of sherries throughout the evening. Nice little place.

The spicy shrimp dish at Knock and Chili Puzzles was a tasty way to come back to reality from our busy day. The grilled shrimp were generously coated in oil, garlic, and a flavorful chili sauce. However, the presentation was lacking, as we were not provided with a plate for the shells and there was no water available to clean our fingers afterwards.

Drake's Tabanco is leading a new trend by promoting the appreciation of sherry. While many Brits may typically associate sherry with older generations or holiday desserts, the Spanish view it as a classic accompaniment to their cuisine. I started with a glass of fino, which was described to me as light and similar to a dry white wine. Despite the nostalgic scent reminding me of Sunday dinners with my Grandma, I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and now believe that sherry deserves a better reputation.

We went to the restaurant for a team dinner on Thursday and found it nearly empty. We also noticed that it was popular for lunch among some people. Despite returning for multiple meals, there weren't many vegetarian options available. The falafels were not as crispy as we had hoped and the vegan ceviche turned out to be a bowl of broccoli. However, the artisan sourdough bread was fantastic and the berries we ordered were delicious. Overall, it was a nice spot for a team dinner, despite some shortcomings with the menu.
