I had a great meal at Zaika a few years back and I understand that the head chef has moved on to his own place. I'll be in London for a very short period of time in May, and wanted to see if Zaika was still up to par, or if there was a better recommendation for upscale Indian. I really enjoyed my meal there and would love to go back, but would hate to have it tainted by a sub-par experience. My only free evening right now is a Sunday, and I'm having a difficult time finding an alternate for Zaika just in case. Can anyone out there help? I'd love to get your opinions.

Hi there. Long time lurker, first time poster. My parents, bless their hearts, are taking me to Restaurant Eve for my birthday. They aren't the most adventurous people, so I couldn't convince them to do the Tasting Room. (Nine courses, too much, how can you eat ALL that -- I can hear their voices now.) Is there anything I should definitely steer them toward on the Bistro Menu? I love them, but they aren't the most adventurous of eaters. Is there anything that might be a pleasant surprise for them? They think most of what I eat is "weird" but I've gotten my Mom to go for Korean and Indian, under careful guidance. I’m looking forward to posting more and adding my two (very amateur) cents in when I can. Oh and the oyster dish, was that on the bistro menu? It sounds, well, divine.
