Spanish find


El Faro is a great find.
A little hole in the wall in Canary Wharf, tucked away behind Millwall inner dock, close to the London arena.

The northern Spanish cuisine is a breath of fresh air, no seafood paella or calamari here (thank god).

Very sensual, very exotic, HUGE steaks, what more could you ask for!
You'll need to take that belt buckle down a notch or two after a meal here; the portions are to say the least, a considerable size.

For such a little place, El Faro has a very huge wine list, quite scary really. You look to spend at least £70 for a good Rioja or Ribero, but without the wine the meal just isn’t complete.

Dig deep, a meal for two can cost around £180 without dessert, but this is definitely not a meal you should miss. YUM YUM.

Find it at: 3 Turnberry Way, Pepper street, London, E14 9RD
Reserve a table on: 020 7987 5511
